They're desperate for any improvement, they'd put Squilachi in if he was available to see if he'd work out
Well Thiago Silva is one of the best CB in the world... and David Luiz was the captain so to be called up ahead of those two is something quite special I feel.
Jokes aside though it is a good message for young players who want to be recognised. Join Arsenal and five games later you'll get yourself an international call up
A shame though. Deserved at least 1 cap. A useless friendly would do but alas that is the cruel nature of life.
