I've often wondered why international footballers and cricketers announce their retirement from the international team long after it's obvious that the manager has effectively already retired them

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football. |

Players have to notify their national association in writing if they wish to not be considered for international selection, whether permanently or for a period of matches. Otherwise the player and club can be sanctioned if they get called up and they refuse to go/the club refuses to release them. That's what happened to Joel Matip last season for Liverpool.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

But when it's a Nasri situation I agree. You didn't retire, you were dropped.

Burst onto the international scene with real intent, and seemed to go downhill slowly ever since. Euro - 2004 - at his absolute best (until injury) If you compared that to Gary Lineker's international tournaments there is no comparison.
