Without a doubt, he actually has the capacity to play for the public group. Playing for an establishment and playing for the nation isn't exactly the same thing. You really want arrangement and furthermore you truly need to gel with the group. Since he can't do those things, I don't think he is in a psychological state to play for the country.
