Dunno, who are England’s top players???
Take our very own little Jackie Wilshere, sure was the reason he stamped his feet and asked to be loaned out not reported as being largely influenced by his omission from the England squad??
Move away from England but remain within your so called British Isles, the top player on a global stage is Gareth Bale who just so happens to be employed by the biggest club in world football. Witness his national pride and enthusiasm for the red dragon at all times during the Euros.
Cross the rough waters of the Irish Sea and our very own gun toting traveller Robbie Keane has recently stated that in all times of his career the wearing of the green Irish shirt was the most important thing. Not that I would believe him.
Fans, or some fans, don’t like it as we see it getting in the way of the real thing.
Professional players love a bit of it.
See also Ronaldo at the Euros .. Neymar at the Olympics.
