Fingers crossed no one gets hurt: The Internationals thread (R)

It's been reported that North Macedonia collectively took the AZ vaccine just before kickoff and the Germans wouldn't go near them.

 

Copa America starts soon. are our SA players allowed to play - Ali, Fab, Bobby?

do UK travel rules allow them to visit Argentina?

 

deutschland uber alles

 

All we need is to lose Alisson for the start of the season.

 

or Fab.

 

TAA named in England's provisional squad. the first time in go knows how long there's only 1 LFC player named.

and he may not make the final cut anyway since there's 3 other RB's named - will be finalized after the CL and Europa final games.

fine by me if he doesn't go - take a well-earned rest, Trent.

edit: oops - Hendo is listed also. I have to believe that is in case some of the CFC / MU / Shitty mfers get crocked this week.

 

Who would be stupid enough to bring hendo he is just getting back from injury ffs

 

I gave up and tracked it down myself ...

Argentina is currently on the UK's "Covid Red List" of no-travel destinations.

so I guess (??) that mean footie players who live in the UK cannot go there. I guess. who TF knows ....

 

who? anyone managing or involved with the England NT.

if as ex-captain, Hendo goes just to be a cheerleader / unofficial assistant coach to the team - with a chance to keep boosting his fitness in training - then fine.

but FFS don't let him near a competitive game!!

 

The epitome of indecisiveness. After claiming he's not a fa nof large squads (he prefers a 23 man squad) Southgate goes ahead and picks 33.

 

Konaté and, possibly Alexander Arnold, are going to have a full holiday.

 

Konate looked good, but maybe we should have signed the other France U-21 CB?

 

both Trent and Hendo are in the England Euro squad.

damn.

 

Light in MF - only 5 selected including Henderson?

Maybe he plans to have TAA as a MF back up as well?

 

he hinted at that 2 weeks ago.

I don't mind Hendo gaining some match fitness after being out so long, but my preference would be for neither of our guys to play in any of the games.

 

Ya no. I’ve never rated Southgate. He’s had a great series of class players and I don’t think he’s ever fielded a team out of them.

 

plus he's the numbskull who took the captaincy away from Hendo to give it to probably the dumbest guy in the squad, who has the leadership qualities of a 2 x 4.

 

On behalf of 2x4's everywhere, they are insulted.

 

wouldn't you know it?

wouldn't you just effing know it?

Trent gets injured in the 85th minute of the England friendly. needed help walking off. sounds like it could be his hammy.

 

Pickford doing his best to take out a few of his own players as well...

 

After all the hooha about his being selected (or not) , he may not be going after all.

 

Good, he'll be rested and fit for the PL.

 

Hopefully the TAA injury is just enough to keep him off the plane but give him plenty of rest this summer.

Wish Konate was not going to the U21 championships as I'll be holding my breath every time he plays given his injury record.

They're a little light up front, but not a bad team from the players absent from the Euros this summer.
