meh probably.

Just can't get bothered about it really, or the U21's.

For example, squad from 2002 championships
User Posted Link

From those 22, 3 start fairly regually for england, with another 3/4 squad players.

If we often saw 6/7 becoming senior regulars with the same again around the squad then It would matter, but as it is its not a massive priority.
