I'd say Le Tissier is missing a pretty ****ing huge point there. Yeah they could stay at yours and play for England, just like Bale could've stayed at yours and played for Wales. But then he wouldn't have played in front of 70k at the Allianz last night.
Champions League football is where it's at for the big boys now and they should be looking for that. Le Tissier's big fish small pond attitude is despairing.
