    Elmo has been called up for Egypt's friendly against Mali on 14 August.

    Not sure where the match is to be played, but if he has to jet around the world it wont be ideal 4 days before the season kicks off

    The game is being played in Casablanca and it's only a friendly, it's a farce.

    We're no better, Scotland will be kicking lumps out of England that night too.

    At least we have another quality player in that position in Rosenior.


    Still a disgrace to have matches that close to the start of the season.

    Maybe our Scottish contingent can do a job on Cole, Lampard et al

    I can't imagine Boyd or Cairney kicking lumps out of anyone.

    Particularly as they probably won't be on the pitch.

    Has McGregor had a call up out of interest?

    If it's in Maroc then distance wise it's only similar to playing in a far flung Euro destination.

    I agree, against Chelski I would sooner play 442 and have Rossy at right back.

    Wonder how our green and white hooped friends feel about 2 City players being in the squad?

    Thankfully our Irish lads will probably only play 10 minutes if at all if their last few games are anything to go by.

    Unfortunately this is likely to be the game that **** decides to stick the lot on for a full 90.

    I'm really surprised nobody has snapped up Gary Mackay-Steven yet, he's a cracking midfielder.

    Well if they do play 90 then we might have trouble fielding a team.
