I have to hand it to Arsene Wenger; if Arsenal does win the Champions league which is a distinct possibility as they seem to thrive against club opposition from other countries, then he will have done it without a single English player playing in the first eleven (Sol Campbell and Ashley Cole are out with injuries). The other injured players are Lauren, Pascal Cygan, and Gael Clichy
Lets run down the list
Jens Lehmann- Germany
Thierry Henry- France (captain)
Roberto Pires- France
Abou Diaby- France
Mathieu Flamini- France
Dennis Bergkamp- Netherlands
Robin Van Persie- Netherlands
Phillipe Cenderos- Switzerland
Emmanuel Adebayor- Togo
Kolo Toure- Ivory Coast
Emmanuel Eboue- Ivory Coast
Francesc Fabregas- Spain
Jose Antonio Reyes- Spain
Frederik Ljungberg- Sweden
Alexander Hleb- Belarus
Gilberto- Brazil
Arsenal play Villareal on April 19th at Highbury in the first leg
