Yeah there's not been as much compared to the countries you mentioned probably due to the reason they don't settle. Quick look on Wikipedia there: In Scotland we've had Efrain Juarez, Eduaorda Herrera and Carlos Pena who all came with big pedigrees and were disasters, the latter you can probably write-off as he was an alcoholic and ended up in rehab lol! In the EPL the list is as follows: Pablo Barrera - West Ham Utd Jared Borgetti - Bolton Nery Castillo - Man City Giovanni Dos Santos - Spurs Guillermo Franco - West Ham Javier Hernandez - Man Utd/West Ham Raul Jimenez - Wolves Miguel Layin - Watford Carlos Salcido - Fulham Carlos Vela - Arsenal A few of the above went on to have half-decent careers elsewhere but 80% of that list or greater were disasterous signings.

There will always be a few exceptions but in the main Mexican players seem to bomb in the UK by and large for some reason. Pablo Barrera - West Ham Jared Borgetti - Bolton Nery Castillo - Man City Giovani Dos Santos - Spurs Guillermo Franco - West Ham Javier Hernández - West Ham/ Man u Raul Jimenez - Wolves Miguel Layún - Watford Carlos Salcido - Fulham Carlos Vela - Arsenal/West Brom Surprisingly there has only ever been 10 Mexican players in the premier league.

I just can't get over the fact that some club sent an alcoholic player to Scotland!
