Article on OS says Llera is the first Spaniard to play for us and Spain will become the 34th nation to represent Charlton.

Can anyone here list the other 33?

I've got to 30 so far - will post them shortly

    What a shame Chris Powell turned down his invitation to play for the Caymen Islands .....and then had no choice but to play for England.

    I thought Youga didn't know what planet he was on, let alone which country he played for

    Woah, wait a minute...... the topic is actually: "Spain will thus be the 34th nation represented by a player in Addicks colours".

    Fine. Except - Llera is NOT a Spain international.

    Maybe we are all looking for players who've played for Charlton and also represented their country.
    The club's criteria evidently makes no issue of actually playing for your country.

    well we've listed more than 34 haven't we.

    surely the o/s hasn't got this wrong.

    But some played international football for a different country than where they were born.
    So 34 different countries of birth is the criteria?

    So it's us who've got it wrong, perhaps ..... ?

    I agree all of these but two both of which are probably down to my ignorance rather than incorrect.

    Who comes (came) from Norway and Cameroon?
