To conclude our series on Northern Ireland players in the Premiership, NIFG presents a series of tables graphs to present the pattern of players by season and to illustrate those teams where our talent thrives.

The graph shows how Northern Ireland player's impact has declined with the influx of foreign talent to the Premiership, and illustrates our problems in the ongoing search for regular goalscorers.
Appearances by Club
The table below illustrates the clubs who have featured Northern Ireland players in the Premiership. Generally it is the small-to-middling clubs who feature highly in this table, and whilst a big club like Manchester United has brought through a number of youngsters, few have made a significant impact on their first-team.
