Since English fans first started singing “it’s coming home”, it
has never come home. In fact, football has only “come home” once
ever, and that was way back in 1966. Since then, it has been poor
officiating like in 1986 at the World Cup, hard luck like in 1998
and 2010 at the World Cup, and near misses like in 2018 at the
World Cup and 2021 at the Euros.

We could give all sorts of excuses for the lack of success at
international competitions for more than half a century now, but
they would hardly hold water because the simple fact is that the
3 Lions should actually be doing much better than they have been
doing.

And so many things could be blamed for these underwhelming
outings; the FA, bad officiating, poor coaching, lack of zeal
from the players, poor decision making on and off the pitch, lots
of things. But what if the problem is actually with the country’s
local league – the Premier League?

How could the Premier League be ruining the England national
team, you ask? Well, come along with us.
