On a serious note though re the international call-ups

On the one hand i'm reasonably pleased in that i don;t want all our players off getting injured playing international games. However, what is more of a concern for me is s situation arising where players feel they have to move on from us to get England recognition. Just being a squad player at Spurs or Liverpool seems to be enough to get you in the England squad ahead of regular starters at smaller prem clubs. Its not been an issue for us in the past but you could see how it could become one if our young players keep improving but get overlooked.
