The reason English players don't go to Serie a is not because they suck but it's because they have no reason to . They will get paid more money in the premier league . they stay in their own country and probably have a bigger chance of being popular with the fans .
It's the same reason Spanish players stay in spain , most of them .
Yes, and EPL make them feel like they are some Hollywood superstar or something. It has struck my mind recently that wha makes EPL look so good to some is that the league has better infrastructure than any other.
Stadiums are all beautiful and full, the pitch always perfect, the lights, the camera's, it looks as if a hollywood director was behind it.
So the player are idolized for every damn pass or tackle they make, because it
looks so good, and as a consequence they end up being so full of themselves....
I saww Desailly giving comments on a BBC football show earlier today. The guy was so full of himself, incredible, he thought he was the next messias or something when analyzing Portsmouth, seriously.
So, I think that is why few British players will leave EPL. They're afraid of losing that status.
And the money too of course.
