Anyone know which club has got the most academy graduates playing in the prem at the moment? Not just for the club they came through the academy of, but playing in the Prem.
So for City I can think of:
Sturridge
Trips
Mee
Barton
Anymore?

Actually, a decent crop of goalkeepers have passed through our academy at one point or another.

Thanks lads. Just wanted to prove my point in work to a few rags when I said we've got one of the best academies for producing Premier League footballers.
