International call ups (5 Viewers)

*edit - sorry you said England B, in which case you are right.

I went to The Hawthorns that night... him & Marcus Hall played & they lost to Chile.

Next night the Chile first team beat us on Dion's debut.

Good times around Jan to Mar 98... we were flying.

Salas cooked England.

Swedes, Irish and Moroccans were our specialty.

Can't believe we haven't gone back to North Africa to to taste some more.

 

[Jamesimus]

Any word on Matt Grimes England call-up yet?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

What’s the list??

 

[jto123]

So I have:
- Jay DaSilva
- BTA
- Lati
- EMC
- Frank
- Esse
- Yang

Obviously want none of them injured, losing Frank/EMC/JDS would be really bad.

In terms of Derby, BTA won’t be able to play in time I wouldn’t think + Lamps seems to suggest Rudoni might struggle to make it. Expect Eccles to start at 10.

Ghana play away in Germany on Monday 30th March, can't see why that would stop him playing Good Friday against Derby

Ah ok, my mistake. Lampard suggested some returning on Thursday. Guess that applies to Jamaica players?

Could have 5 players at the World Cup as well as signings of course

 

[Saddlebrains]

Because im sad I had a look at who is playing where and when and any effect that may have on us

Looks like EMC and Joel will be a write off unfortunately

Now do Derby. I guess Agyemang will be away. When is he back?

Hasn't Lati done a similar turnaround before? There was the story about a member of staff staying with him to keep him awake until early evening, so that his body clock was back on UK time. Although that was probably for a Saturday game, rather than a Friday.

 

[Pezza]

Pleased for EMC but.... annoying

 

[Nick]

surely if there's an international break all of the games should be within that?

Exactly, how can you have an international break where it affects playing for your club.

I used to love watching our players in tournaments back in the day. Feels like a long time since i've had the pleasure.

 

[shmmeee]

Forgot it’s a World Cup summer, hope we sign some random from a far flung country that has a worldie.

[SonofErnie]

Usually makes the transfer window a bit more condensed with signings waiting until the World Cup is over. We may have to be patient this summer.

 

[alexccfc99]

BTA has returned from the Ghana camp - Injured

 

[alexccfc99]

 

[Nick]

 

[Pezza]

Good news.

 

[Macca1987]

Yeah, but what is the injury

 

[Domo]

surely this means injury?
checking his instagram he said "Upon collaborative advice of both ghana and coventry, ill focus on maintaining fitness for an important few months for both club and country"

which sounds positive?

 

[Pezza]

He's not injured, Ghana have 2 nothing games and we have 7 huge ones. Jamaica have a world cup qualifier, that is a bit different, same with Wales.

 

[sc1940]

They are saying he picked up a knock against Swansea.

 

[Nick]

If international players get injured and it costs us promotion, Doug King should invade the country with his Turtleneck army and force them to sign a deal that we get first dibs any player from said country.

 

[Otis]

Yeah, but what is the injury

It's his PTBI that's the problem I believe.






Pretending To Be Injured

 

[Domo]

ive just heard his leg has been taken clean off

 

[Otis]

Just a mere flesh wound.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

It looks like that. Took a jolly to Austria, had a little holiday, then came home again.

Maybe they’ve decided he’s going to the WC regardless and needs a rest more than extra games to play.

I can see the Clubcall Teletext headline now:
SKYBLUES CHASE WORLD CUP ACE

 

[Saddlebrains]

Asantes fine

Hes basically binning off 2 pointless friendlies to concentrate on our last 7. Club dressing it up as a 'knock'. From the same place as the Bobby and Rudi injury news a few weeks back so id say solid

If EMC isnt available after Jamaica we will need BTA even more so this reduces risk

Edit**** asked if Lati and EMC would be the same if it wasnt a play off game the response was 'of course they fucking would'
