Hi there! Good point, because many of us on this board, including myself, are really into our English football {thumb2}
Rule of thumb for me when writing to players (whether at Man Utd, Liverpool, etc), is to always include an s.a.e (I can't get my hands on return postage stamps, so go with s.a.s.e's!), and a photo of the player whether they return it signed or not. Its just all about increasing your chances.
I'd keep the letter one page long if they're very established within the team, for example a Wayne Rooney or John Terry. For signings that are new or aren't used frequently, you can ramble on a bit, as they'll most likely read your letter, whereas the big stars probably wont. I do one page, intro - a bit about me, body - why I like them, good points about their game, etc and conclusion - request for a personalised autograph and wishing them the best with their footballing and the seasons to come.
You can make it colourful and individual by all means!
