Why is it players and managers continuously bitch about the amount of games they play, and then be first in line to be picked for the interlull.
Im fast coming to the opinion that its not club or international team to blame here.......its the player, Saka, Rice, Martinelli....they all know whats ahead of them for the season and they all made the personal choice to go and play their respective interlull matches, 2 out of the 3 are crocked and i cant imagine rice being as fresh as he would be had he skipped those 2 England games. Its not like he can claim he's ALWAYS wanted to play for England now is it.
Players need to make the decisions on where their priorities lie, and if they're knackered from "too many games" and still insist on flying halfway round the world on international duty then the player has to take responsibility for that. The club should also remind them whose paying them the real money.
They just dont make them like Havertz and Partey........those lads know the score!

Just thinking may be due to the players contracts...eg able to negotiate a higher rate of pay if an established international...as if they need any extras
