But yea as for the future we need to pick more players who play full time for their clubs, whether its lower premiership clubs or even championship sides.
Chris Waddle has a damn good point - this is a team game firstly, not a fantasy league.

The Sun's chief sports writer Steven Howard knows exactly where he's pinning the blame for the Three Lions' woes -- on the domestic top flight.
Describing the national team's performance as "embarrassing," he adds: "I have said for years that the Premier League, because of their uncontrollable greed, smug self-satisfaction and the wanton and totally irresponsible spending of their associated clubs who p--- all their multi-million-pound handouts against the wall, have no interest in the national team.
"They, most of all, will be laughing at the FA and this expensive comedy of errors that has unfolded in Brazil. I hope they feel proud."
