WTF? Why are you making things up.Haha. I suspect Pep has got into the squad and given them some sort of ‘choice’ about internationals.
Grealish has gone from celebrating his call up to withdrawing.
I bet it’s the same for a lot of them.

Meanwhile, back on planet earth...Clubs need to take a stand against the proliferation of international fixtures. You can’t blame FIFA, UEFA etc for wanting more seats on the football gravy train with more qualifying fixtures and extended tournaments and, absurdly, turning friendlies into the nations league. If I ran those organisations I’d see more matches for what they are - a license to print money using talent that somebody else pays for.
So the clubs should draw a line in the sand and tell star players we will decide on a match by match basis whether we’ll allow you to play internationals. If you don’t like it you can fuck off and play for Sunderland or Grimsby for five grand a week and be free to face Armenian taxi drivers or Andorran waiters 15 times a season in glamorous international fixtures.
If the big clubs stuck together on this we’d soon see the players fall into line

I'm grateful for this one ;-)Agreed. These breaks in the season are nonsense.
Obviously - are you just being obtuse by swerving the point I made in bold ie he said in his post:He's not making it up.

Where are the photos of him celebrating
As has been pointed out already many times, If you’re called up you have to be assessed by England medics before you can withdraw. Jack had started light training so had to be assessed.

He had the absolute temerity to repost the announcement on his Instagram stories. Which he does every single time he’s called up.Obviously - are you just being obtuse by swerving the point I made in bold ie

The reaction from some City fans to all this has been absolutely beyond pathetic.
