FULHAM boss Lawrie Sanchez makes no apology for turning the club into Belfast-on-Thames by signing half the Northern Ireland team.
Sanchez unveiled six new players yesterday, including four from the team he managed at international level, David Healy, Chris Baird, Aaron Hughes and Steven Davis.
Sanchez, who has Jimmy Bullard fit again after a knee injury, said: "We need to be up and running from day one - we face Arsenal first. So we decided we'd sign players we know."
