y'see that's the problem with football over, say, rugby or cricket

football is played in too many forrin places that haven't had the guiding hand of Her Maj, and we seem to have stuck our flag in places that aren't particularly interested in football ("Jewel in the Crown" indeed), so there aren't enough top forrin footballers with remote English ancestry for us to poach.
