Off Topic International Break Thread

But you're not obsessed about it or anything...

 

Fixed.
Remove the dives from our games alone and it's down to a point.

 

@Dier Hard

 

Bale, Rodon and Davies have been called up for the Wales squad... by Ryan Giggs.

 

He’s trending on Twitter already. I’ve now realised that there are people who dislike him as a player more than I do

 

This has been the best one so far

 

Lloris and Sissoko are in the France squad.
Doherty's in Ireland's.
Gedson Fernandes is in the Portugal U21s, somehow.

 

Are their missus quite the lookers in any particular way ... ??

 

Bale and Davies? Yes. Rodon? No idea. Giggs is suspended though, so they should be alright.

 

Winks normally performs well for England to be fair. The slower international football suits him and he offers something for the England setup that other players won’t do. Apart from maybe JWP, who also brings a set piece option, so he perhaps edges it.

Useless if Southgate persists with 3 at the back, no left footed fullbacks and a midfield of cloggers around him though. Never understood the Declan Rice hype, he’s ****e but everyone seems to love him.

Out of that lot I’d pick

Pickford (really want to pick Henderson but he needs to play)
TAA Gomez Coady Chilwell
Henderson JWP Foden
Sancho Kane Sterling

 

Jose told Gary that he no play Harry in friendlies.
Will Gary be pally and do the same to avoid blame ??

 

A few more callups



While at youth level...

 

Steven Bergwijn sent home from the Netherlands squad as he was "deemed" not fit

 

On a similar note, there's conflicting reports about whether or not Hojbjerg will be staying put

 

Not surprised

We can see it in his game...he’s way off it

 

Englands 'home' match v Iceland on Wed 18th may be played in Albania due to Iceland playing in Denmark at the weekend - How ridiculous is that

 

Nathen Ake subbed off with suspect hamstring , these international games are taking a toll

Stay safe boys
