    Copied from BBC Football website
    "Crystal Palace winger Yannick Bolasie has rejected the chance to play for DR Congo at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations. The uncapped 23-year-old was named in the Leopards' initial squad of 28 players bound for South Africa.

    But his agent, Tony Finnigan, says he will not be accepting the call-up.
    "He's not going. Of course Yannick has thought about it but he just decided it's not the right time at this stage," Finnigan told BBC Sport.

    "It would mean missing a lot of matches and that would disrupt his Palace career when he is just starting to play regularly."


    Should Albert Adomah do the same and put his international career on hold for the good of the club that is paying his wages?

    Tough call. For a player country should come first but as he isnt a first team player for his country he may decide not to go.
    The other point would be if he was to leave the club going to play in the cup would be a good reason no club would go in for him as why would you buy a player who couldnt play for a few months
