You're looking at the individual. Im talking of the larger picture. Telling the people who will provide the challenge to go elsewhere weakens those who stay. There needs to be more incentive to do so. Telling them to leave isn't it. Again, the coach has no issue. His focus is on the next world cup. But the technical…
