For example Josh Wolff had played in two world cups but because he was left off the Gold Cup squad twice once due to injury and another time because he had played in the Confederations Cup which ended a week before the Gold Cup began he did not meet the 75% and then Derby lost the appeal to sign him. Yet somehow Eddie Johnson got a work permit to play for Fulham despite featuring less regularly (under Arena) and having fewer caps than Wolff. He fell short of the 75% but won his appeal which Wolff did not.
All the Alves case tells me is that Boro did a good job in that particular case.
