Is that it now? Have our boys played their quota in this International dross fortnight , or is their more to come for me to worry about injuries?

I wish he'd always wear the same shooting boots he does for Spain.

Normal. He doesn’t have the same responsibilities. Also, with Spain, he doesn’t have a truly phenomenal forward line in front of him to have the luxury of passing to.

No chance. DS will be playing most of the game for Spain v Russia in two days I recon.

Phil the Face has ducked out, so we'll have John Stones v Gabriel Jesus on Tues, for a start & Kyle Walker might play that one. Maybe Fern & Danillo Ederson for Brazil. Probably both Serge & Otta for Argentina v Nigeria. Leroy maybe Germany v France (& Gundo) & maybe Bernardo Silva Portugal vs USA & it wouldn't surprise me if Kev plays for Belgium v Japan.

Results can't be that good or you wouldn't be in the play-offs ;-)

The results are ok but the style of play is like watching Wimbledon there that bad. Its sad to say we have no young player coming along that you would be thinking we might have a player in him that could do something. I look at the set up maybe Declain Rice at West Ham might do something but its so hard to pin point any and say hes our next Damien Duff or Robbie Keane sadly thats Irish football for you.

Highest ever scoring midfielder for Spain

When you consider the competition that’s some achievement

He’s scored almost as many goals for Spain as he has for us in half as many games

Spain use him in a different way to us though.

Let's hope that the ref for NIs second leg playoff isn't as bent as the first one.

Fuck me the Northern Ireland game has started at 100mph.

Or Norn aren't as bad as they were. That ridiculous decision papered over the cracks. They were shocking that first game and at home as well.

That pitch is shite

 

[mccity]

Even this Northern Ireland team; with nothing going for it as far as personnel is concerned, and a style of play that is criminally outdated and easy to hog the ball against; play better football than Manchester United under Mourinho.
