Black Goalkeeper's

[Rjk]

Something to think about. Name 3 ball playing black midfielders. Apart from the world class, Paul Pogba, who could fill that role... who is there?

Patrick Vieira was much more of a ball player than he was ever given credit for.
Because of his stature (and perhaps his colour) people pigeon holed him as a destroyer but that really wasn't what he was about.
John Barnes could play in that position once his pace went.
Ruud gullit played in midfield sometimes and was pretty effective.
Frank rijkard (so) as well although more defensive.

There must have been a fair few Brazilians over the years

[Armitage Shanks]

The only current black keeper I can think of is the Ajax keeper

Jordan Archer (Millwall)

We've had Tony Warner and Jason Brown.

I think that we need to look closer to home, all of the players you mention were from other countries, it certainly seems to be an issue in the UK.
