We all know West Ham brought it home in 1966 ⚒️
Be a lot more interesting to see this via academy rather than club they played at.
Thinking about West Ham: Ferdinand, Joe Cole, Lampard, Carrick, Defoe, Ince, Glen Johnson - they must all have minimum 50 caps each. Which is so impressive for 1 academy. But vast majority of their caps came once they left West Ham.
West Ham have contributed more to England than Spurs say (and I say that as a spurs fan) but were much higher up on the list because we’ve always had a decent amount of England players in our squad.
By academy could be more difficult though, seeing as some players go through multiple academies; which one gets the credit?
Take Lampard. He was in the academy for a year before being promoted to the senior team. Does that mean West Ham should be credited with every cap he got?
West Ham is massive, unsurprisingly enough.
Mad we are there considering we spent 16 years in the EFL. We are huge ;)
Thought Everton would be higher
