    Should players be paid for representing their country?, expenses should be paid but wages also?

    Most nations are open as to how much they pay players for international appearances but the FA are secretive(if there's nothing to hide why hide it)

    "The FA does not reveal the size of England men's appearance fees and a spokesman told Reality Check: "We won't be releasing any information regarding player payments."

    Reality Check: Do footballers get paid for internationals?

    Start well and England are well in. It’s like LFC playing Stoke at Anfield. We score first and early, game over. #nojinx

    I’ll be worried if it is 0-0 by half time.

    I suppose it is, but they are like a mini version of Fifa, it looks like they're hiding something by not releasing the figures, they should be made to be open.
    Pride alone should be all these overpaid players need to pull on their national jersey.

    Expenses should be paid but wages, especially for the richer nations, no. It's down to common decency I guess. Under less effluent days, it would be normal to pay to supplement their normal wages, but all the England players right now for instance, are millionaires.

    Another secret organisation, one that belongs to the nation.<laugh>

    "ITV, who are winning the ratings battle with BBC and have a potential blockbuster England semi-final at peak time to come, have a workforce of 180 in Russia.

    The BBC, despite being funded by taxpayers, shamelessly will not say how many people they have at the tournament but the informed estimate is around double ITV's total.

    A BBC spokeswoman said that due to a change of policy, the Corporation no longer reveal how many people they send to major events at home or abroad."

    Salah got absolutely ripped for his meeting the Chechen leader but it's okay for Rio to meet with Putin who's death squads poison and shoot his detractors.

    Just in case you do ....... even a little bit .....

    affluent - having a great deal of money; wealthy.
    effluent - liquid waste or sewage discharged into a river or the sea.
