Mole_Toonfan Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 The Diego Costa episode is the epitome of how wrong the rule is. As someone said earlier we could've gone down that road with Arteta or Jose Enrique, and like him, I'm so glad we haven't. Germany are another country who take the p*ss in this respect. With whom out of interest? Can't wait for his reply on that one. I would think all of the German squad apart from Klose and Podolski who moved at a young age were born and grew up in Germany They were, Ozil for example who a lot of people say "he's Turkish hehe" was actually born in Gelsenkirchen.

B-more Mag Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 With so much global mobility and the best players often playing in leagues in other countries, international football really is an anachronism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me once you play for a country you should be locked into that country whether its a competitive game or not. That Costa stuff was especially BS, how you can play for one country and then another just because it wasn't a competitive game is just wrong. Having said that though i don't think the Germans take the piss anymore than anyone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I'd love to know when I defended the eligibility issue. Actually just answer that question, when did I defend anything to do with eligibility?

I'm sorry I can't believe that In my opinion, one player playing for a country he shouldn't be playing for; again in my opinion, is taking the piss. Had England not capitulated against Germany and lost to a Cacau goal, I'd have been even more pissed off. Once again it's a route I'm glad England haven't taken advantage of.
