Interestingly enough, England are the only other team consisting purely of players playing in their home league. Italy come next close with the exception of one.
That`s because English players are bloody expensive!!! but seriously, I don`t think players playing in their home league makes too much difference these days, because the inter-changing over the years of players playing in different leagues has now become so common. In fact, the last great German side back in the 1990 WC had their core players player in Serie A.
