England players released for Ghana game

Our main competitors have their players returned while City's 4 remain there.

We need some fucking backbone against the FA/England. I don't want another Micah incident.
 
You can guarantee Barry,Lescott and Milner will be playing against a very physical team,manyl with a point to prove and seeing it as a big chance to impress.....
 
To be fair, it was only Joe who played the full 90. Milner only got 10-15 mins and the others were not even selected.
 
good for england as all of them are a bag of sh*t anyway

players turning down a cap for england should never play again for england
its the biggest thing in football your chance of playing for england

you know who really is putting it in for england dont you when you pull out

All those players have CL commitments, could be something to do with that, like a clause put in by their clubs pre-meet up?
That was my first thoughts on it, I think if we were still in the EL ours would of been sent back.

Yeah, it's the only logical explanation really, can't see any other reason why they would let those players go and not others. Fucking pointless game anyway v Ghana.

Have you thought what you said through? All of them played near 80 mins + and there EMPLOYER might have arrangend with the FA to play the important game and not the friendly, which means they have no control over it!!
The FA didnt even want this friendly we arranged the date to try rub FIFA the right way in our quest for the WC 2018

Milner needs game time after his lay off - still off the pace yesterday . AJ also needs 45 mins - they just need to be careful with 50/50s etc

AJ isn't in the squad so two weeks of rest for him.

Even if Barry, Lescott, and Milner play 90 against Ghana, they should be quite well rested as the first two played 0 minutes against Wales and Milner just had a late run out. Milner needs game time, he looked poor after coming on against Wales, so 90 minutes against Ghana might actually be a good thing.
 
to be fair to capello he has also kept 3 spuds players as well all of whom didnt play yesterday and they are our main rivals now for 4th
