As players from around the World travel home for the forthcoming international games, we can see the difference in wealth between many team mates.
USA goalkeepers Tim Howard and Nick Rimando both headed to Los Angeles yesterday ahead of the CONCACAF Cup match with Mexico in Passadena. A place in the 2017 Confederations Cup is at stake for the winners.
While the journey lengths to LA were different for both players, the difference in comfort was telling. After the Merseyside derby, Howard made the Transatlantic journey to LA in the lap of luxury.

Howard's team mate Rimando saw the tweet, and showed the world his flight arrangements. While the Real Salt Lake goalkeeper had a far shorter journey to California, going down the American west coast, you would expect a similar level of transport for all players.
