The Straight Shootin' View Episode 53 - Michail Antonio and players choosing countries

Did Michail Antonio make the right choice in choosing to play for Jamaica over England? Do FIFA residency rules need to be changed?

In this episode Straight Shootin' LJA discusses West Ham United forward Michail Antonio choosing to represent Jamaica over England. SSLJA looks at whether Antonio has made the right decision after a couple of very good seasons with West Ham, which had only recently started to put him in contention for a potential full, competitive England squad call up.

SSLJA looks at other players such as Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha, former Manchester United player Ryan Giggs, Diego Costa & Eduardo Da Silva, all of whom had represented nations at every level up until under 21 (some even at full international level in friendlies) before switching allegiance.

SSLJA also looks at how the FIFA residency rules could be tightened up, to avoid situations like Adnan Januzaj who had potential eligibility for up to 12 countries and was being openly courted by Roy Hodgson & the FA for England.
