TBF Qatar have been doing exactly that for a long time. Top Goalscorer and most capped player Sebastián Soria is a naturalised citizen and so are a good percentage of their current team.
No option for Kasey Palmer? The Huddersfield fans were all too keen to inform us at the start of the season that he was one of Chelsea's best prospects.
He'll be 37 before he'll next be able to play a UEFA competition, January before he can sign for another team but there's a chance he'll never play a competitive match ever again.
Those placing's are based on last season, so expect both ours and Huddersfield's to jump up this season. Also wonder how many of Newcastle's players didn't have a relegation wage drop clause built into their contracts, some big earners there.
No matter what happens I'll expect the club to compete in either a tour of or / and tournament abroad. Barber has already said we were asked to at the end of last season. Wouldn't be surprised if some Indian dates were already inked in.
Garth Crooks has also been singing Hughtons praises. Below comment is from his weekly BBC Team Of The Week piece:

Our current central midfield options are very limited, and we don't fully know how Sidwell is out for and there's also the chance of him having a re-occurrence of the injury / be set back further. Molumby would also benefit from some first team football, so wouldn't be surprised if we brought...
Think the question now is who would want to step into such a job? It's now not an attractive proposition and Ellis isn't likely to step in and make more funds available, so that a manager can rebuild a team and the players there are still on very big contracts, so unlikely that they'll be moved...
Would expect that moment to be accelerated if and when Dyche leaves, especially if they replace him with Moyes which the papers have suggested may happen.
