Tottenham defender Danny Rose said he "was anxious to see the football game" and that he was frustrated by the lack of measures taken against the racism of the fans.
Racist slogans were sent to several English players, including Rose, during the Euro 2020 qualifying match in Montenegro.
Uefa accused Montenegro of racist behavior, but Rose, 28, does not expect a significant penalty.
The left-back said: "When you expect a fine what I probably spend at an evening in London, what is waiting for you?"
Rose, who was also a victim of violence during her stay in Serbia in 2012 with under-21s in England, said that he would play but that he was "fed up" with racism.
"The way I program myself is that I think I have five or six more years left in football and I can not wait to see the result," he added.
"See how things are going in the game by the minute, just keep going."
"There is so much politics in football and I can not wait to see the bottom."
The disciplinary record of Montenegro will be dealt with by the governing body of European football on 16 May.
The minimum penalty is a partial closure of the stadium, while a second offense entails the disputation of an in camera match and a fine of 50,000 euros (£ 42,500).
The coach of Montenegro, Ljubisa Tumbakovic, said that he had "not heard or noticed any comments" of racist abuse, but the manager of England , Gareth Southgate, said "there is no doubt in my mind that it happened – it's unacceptable".
Rose said that he was ready to sing more in Podgorica last week but did not expect the situation to change any time soon.
This week, Italian striker Moise Kean of Juventus, aged 19, was the victim of racist abuse during a match in Cagliari. His teammate Leonardo Bonucci hinted that Kean was partly responsible for the laughable behavior of Raheem Sterling, his English teammate.
The Manchester City Sterling was reportedly ill-treated at Chelsea in December, while UEFA was investigating an alleged case of racist abuse against another English player, Callum. Hudson-Odoi during Chelsea's Europa League win at Dynamo Kiev on 14 March.
UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin said he would ask the referees to be "brave" and stop the matches when there are racial badaults of the from their supporters, but Rose said that he just wanted to win the victory and come back from Montenegro.
"Gareth Southgate was a little upset after the game because it was the first time he had been involved in something like that – he did not know what was the right course of action," Rose said.
"He said that he was completely behind me if I wanted to leave, I appreciate it, but I just wanted to get the three points and get out of there as quickly as possible.
"It's sad, of course, that I had to prepare for that, but when countries are fined only for what I'm likely to spend at a party in London, what are you waiting for?
"You see my manager [at Tottenham, Mauricio Pochettino] to be banned for two games just to be confrontational against [referee] Mike Dean in Burnley – but a country can not be fined for being a little racist. It's a bit of a joke.
"So where are we now in football?" Until there is severe punishment, there is not much we can expect. "
