No idea, but probably not as many as in Jack Charlton's 'Irish' team.

These players know they unless you play for a big club [except 1 or 2 exceptions] they won't get picked for England ,so they go for the next best thing.
So really they are England?

Who cares, they've nailed their colours to the mast and play with a pride and passion England simply lack.
Pretty sad IMO that people want to highlight that fact rather than give the nation the respect it deserves for their performances in the competition.
They've won more knockout games in the last week than England have won in 20 years.

Shit.... When did we lose Chester to Wales ??
Some England players probably could have qualified for other countries under the current rules

Part of Chester is in Wales. I think one side of their football ground is.

My mistake he was born in England but grew up and went to school in Wales. The border is just outside Chester near the Deva Stadium I believe.
