Indeed, but the clubs same fans will not accept an underachieving UK dominated team instead of a team made up of foreigners.
Ask Chelsea fans if they would prefer a team full of British players and finish 12th every season.
Fans care less about England now than their clubs teams - thus their own clubs performance comes first - no matter who is playing in their side. This is what is hitting the England team.
