Somehow, seems a little ridiculous that the Boatengs are playing against each other - there's plenty more from me about the ridiculousness of switching countries if you want it, but I'm going to settle down, watch the game and support Boateng”

I agree changing countries is wrong, but I'm pretty sure Ozil, Khedira and Jerome Boateng aren't guilty of this, there's genuinly nothing to criticise them, or Germany for. They are German, why wouldn't they play for Germany

Would you also criticise Welbeck and Jagielka for playing for England given how they could have represented other countries? Raheem Sterling isn't even English, he was born in Jamaica, no complaints from me, but maybe something else to consider if you criticise Germany for it.
