Question from an American

I'd imagine you see the narrative that always comes out of the US whenever the men's team loses in an international tournament about best athletes playing other sports.

Genuine question: Do people in England ever sit and complain about lack of athletes on your national team when they come up short?

EG: Athletes playing cricket or rugby instead?

Asking because I'm firmly in the camp of the "best athletes playing other sports" narrative missing the actual issue(s). But it made me wonder what the narrative is within countries where football/soccer is the best sport when their team comes up short.
