Missing the Olympics this summer, not showcasing themselves in that wouldn’t help. And if you look at the English players off the back of the Euros and World Cup, we saw a lot of tired English players in the league last year. And we saw that domestically and in the Champions League with none of the English clubs in the final.
So I can see why they are not in the running this year. I think the last two years, they would have had a greater chance.
