Add to that the improvement in development then if you have the chance to start for a power European team makes sense.

For a guy like JDG who likely never plays a real role in a legit tournament for Holland it doesn't make much sense.
Yep, Hargreaves pretty much used his play for England to get himself a massive deal with Man United. As nice as it would have been to see him play for Canada he quite clearly made the right decision.
