Scotland got their play off spot via the last nations league. Still early days and I think/hope that all of qualifying will be tied in eventually somehow.
Yeah there is something about that as well, but it's all too confusing, but if anyone works it out, they need to get out more.
Can remember vaguely how it works. Highest League takes precedence... So Portugal won the League A final but had already qualified for Euros so that's League A out...then it's onto League B and so on. Ended up with the Jocks getting a spot due to all the decent teams already being in and then they won a couple of play offs to qualify for the finals. Something similar for World Cup qualification but not as many spots available. It's a good concept and it will be better when the media stop referring to it as glorified friendlies.
It is glorified friendlies though. It’s the Zenith Data Systems Cup. Now we have to play Iceland in a dead rubber and probably get mink Covid and almost certainly all die.
See that Henderson was taken off at half time as a precautionary move. Wanted to make sure he didn’t have an impact in t he second half. So good for club, may as well not bother for England. No special inhalers is the rumour.
If the manager with no tactical nous could open his eyes for once he'd explore the option of playing him as one of the back three... a sort of Macherano at Barca type scenario.
why doesn’t he play that role for Liverpool in times of need. ? He isn’t a bad footballer, just doesn’t seem to work for him at International level. System, mindset...who knows.
Would definitely keep him as far away from the attacking third as possible as he just doesn't seem to have a clue. Just too many robotic defensive midfielders in the game at the moment if I'm being honest, but for some reason they seem to be in vogue.
Grealish was top draw... You should have pushed the boat out and signed him when he was in the Championship. Not that you were interested but you should have been.
