# 90 was the only one where they looked like having a chance
i've said it a few times during this world cup, that I think the premiership is a bit isolated and the english team would benefit if more english players went abroad. There are of course teams like Germany and Italy where all the players stay in the home country (generally) but they are educated from youth to play technically and tactically, while as a kid in england, there's less emphasis on those things, where hard work is the measure of a decent player. I think english players would benefit from playing in leagues where the football is more technical, rather than in a league like the premiership where 16 of the teams are just trying to stop conceding goals however they can. I realise this argument has some holes.
