Fantastic for their country but terrible in club football? |  | | |  |

Darius Vassell comes to mind. Absolutely pants at club level, but scored a bicycle kick against Holland and somehow racked up another 20-odd appearances and 5 more goals. Not saying he excelled at international level but was definitely better than he was at club level……. | | | |

Kyle Lafferty, Lucas Podolski and Miroslav Klose are the three best examples from the last decade. More recently, Pogba and Bale aren’t bad players by any stretch but they’re both much better for their national teams than their clubs. |  |

Bale?
You’ve got to be kidding. Out of favour in latter years but had an amazing club impact. |  |

Edu Vargas
Excellent for Chile, and has had a couple of big moves based on performances in the Copa America and World Cup, but does very little at club level. Absolutely different player in a Chile shirt. |  |

Sumilikovski -captain of Macedonia with 80 plus caps to his credit and only scored once for us (great goal against Blackburn).
Paz- 10 caps for Uruguay and 1 goal for us (and that goal didn't matter) |  |

Going back a few years here but Gheorghe Hagi was probably the classical example of this. [Post edited 27 Jun 2021 19:10]

Would that be the Hagi who played 500 games in club football and scored over 200 goals.... as a midfielder. Yeah he was really crap wasn't he. |  | | |

Salvatore Schillachi was brilliant for the National team but failed to live up to the hype at club level. |  |

If you're having Podolski you've got to mention Miroslav Klose as well, both had similar good without being particularly great club careers, but both (especially Klose) were phenomenal for their country. The two of them combine for 120 international goals. |
Klose was superb for the mighty Bremen.
It was when he went to Munich he struggled a bit. |  | | |

Lukas Podolski and Moussa Sissoko are two that were rarely great at club level but great for their countries |
Moussa Sissoko gets in the France squad but not Tanguy Ndombele, who is ahead of Sissoko at Spurs!
He must really hate Deschamps. |  |

Bit more of an immediate one rather than a glowing international career, but Danny Ward has done himself no harm at the Euros. He's 28 and barely had a career at club level. |  |

Not cr*p but Xherdan Shaqiri is another that seems to play at a another level in international tournaments compared to club football |  |

David Healy was always superb for NI, but relatively, sh**e for any of his clubs, I remember him being woeful on loan here |  | | |

Not just in this game v France, but Granit Xhaka doesn't play like this at Arsenal |  |

Carlton Palmer made it to the international stage. |
So did John Fashanu unbelievably. | | | |

Thamas Priskin.
Maybe not fantastic for his country but certainly better than his club record, especially with us. | | | |

Pogba. |
Must agree. He was very good tonight and a great pen too. At Man U, poor. | | | |

Seems to be managing the side too, Dechamps appears to be being led by players.
Sacked in the morning. | |
