Darren Fletcher (Manchester United 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011)

Brian McClair (Manchester United 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997)
Colin Hendry (Blackburn Rovers 1995).

Total: 10

So Welsh players have won more PL medals just through Giggs (12). Amazing when you think of all the Scottish players in the 80s and before.

This was your last post on the question, you didn't say who the one more to get was, you went on to the next question after your Puyol and Messi comment about the 2 players Arsenal got from Barca (I was referring to Jon Toral and Hector Bellerin) we were left with:

Manuel Almunia, Mikel Arteta, Santi Cazorla, Cesc Fàbregas, Nacho Monreal, José Antonio Reyes, Fran Merida, Míchel and one more to get.
