[waspish]

Thought Messi had Retired? Maybe if fancies going to the World Cup

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Hope he’s rested both matches

So do I, but it is one hell of a long way to fly, there and back, just to warm a bench.

Lol Forest got more away on international duty than any other club (still only 10% of their squad though)

 

[JRockBlues]

Hope he’s rested both matches

So do I, but it is one hell of a long way to fly, there and back, just to warm a bench.

Came off the bench on 77 minutes.

A 4 page thread tells you all you need to know about International football. Time for a rethink, seed teams, play a 4 match qualifier at the end of the season, lower seeds get limited slots in the World Cup and Euro’s but play a different competition at the same time involving say 16 teams, winners and runners up get 4 year entry to the Euro’s and World Cup.

We take 8 weeks a year out of the football calendar, by missing out these ridiculous matches the season could finish earlier and the qualifiers would be actually competitive, forget the likes of Malta, Luxembourg, etc, they can play their own competition (which is the same standard as the National League)

I was in a pub last year with a few friends who are all football fans, England were playing, the match was on TV but not on in the pub, no one actually asked for it to be switched over, they just left MTV on and no one was interested.

Don't worry I'm sure he has lots of stories to share about his treble

 

[KS55]

How marvellous it is to have an international break instead of that boring old Premier League.
