Or does it just seem that way because of all the media and hype that England gets?
Wilshere was supposed to be THE MAN in England's midfield for the next 15 years. But he's ALWAYS injured. And no other English player has the same touch on the ball or fluidity of movement like he does.
Ledley King would have been a mainstay in their D for a long time but his knees were gone.
Owen should have played at a very high level for a few more years but injuries did him in.
Gazza was considered a top 3 player in the world for a short time at his peak. But he was absolutely mental. If he somehow kept his nose clean and stayed out of trouble off the pitch, and focused more on his training, he could have played at world class level for many more years than he did. And what if he signed with Sir Alex (who wanted him) and not with Newcastle or Spurs? SAF might have set him straight.
Any other teams you can think of that had multiple injuries and wasted careers to extremely important players that had a significant effect on the national team's future performances for years to come?
Is England the unluckiest team for career ending/altering injuries and wasted talent?
