International Players/Break (4 Viewers)

[edgy]

Can we as a club, refuse players being selected to play friendlies?

Can the players turn down selection?

Appreciate it's not a good look for the players to do so, but the sheer magnitude of what is at stake maybe understood by the International teams?

No you can't do that especially not before a world cup.

You have to do the Ryan Giggs special and get a minor calf injury or something to get out of it

Is this opinion or a written rule?

I guess clubs can't make the decision but a player could turn down selection?

I'm fairly sure the rules state that clubs are obliged to release players in an International window if they're called up.

World Cup year... players want to go.

 

[shmmeee]

Who is likely to go and when?

.

Haji, Lati, Dasilva, Onyeka, BTA. Not sure if there are others.

 

[mark82]

Outside chance of Sakamoto with Japan playing both their next fixtures in the UK?

 

[mark82]

Possibly EMC too. Think he's eligible for Jamaica and there was talk of a call up recently.

 

[edgy]

• Jay Dasilva – Wales (H) 26th Mar
• Frank Onyeka – Nigeria (No game?)
• Brandon Thomas‑Asante – Ghana (A) 27th March & (A) 30th March - both in Europe
• Joel Latibeaudiere – Jamaica (A) 26th March - Fooking miles away!
• Haji Wright – USA (H) 28th March & (H) 1st April

 

[shmmeee]

Get Simms ready now cos the Yanks always ruin Haji

Jamaica also likely to play a second game given their first is against New Caledonia. Games are being played in Mexico.

Maybe Simms will get his Poland call up.

 

[mark82]

Haji going to be a close call for getting back in time for the Derby game. Lati & possibly EMC could only get back the day before. Haji possibly same day as we play.

Always wondered how good the Japan team is and how close Sakamoto is to getting in the squad. He only has two appearances for them.
You'd think being a regular for the club at the top of the Championship would at least get him a look in?

Nigeria currently scheduled to play Iran & Jordan, which is interesting.

Outside chance they could actually replace DR Congo in the World Cup playoffs as FIFA are looking at the eligibility of some of the Congo players.

BTAs matches are only friendlies.

Off the top of my head Japan have Kubo, Doan, Minamino on the wings, all playing for top tier European clubs (Sociedad, Frankfurt, Monaco).

Not sure what their depth is like but I imagine he’s a little way off a call up.

Makes sense really when you look at the competition doesn't it?
Shame though, would love to see him at the World Cup

And Mitoma

 

[netheredger]

Rushworth (England)

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Just do what the Manchester clubs do when they have players called up, our players have niggling injuries.

 

[covcity4life]

Yeah biggest clubs in Europe can't stop it but maybe cov can

 

[Hincha]

JDS & Lati will definitely both go as their sides are in WC playoffs

BTA & Wright will definitely go as it’s their final chance to impress before the WC squad

I’d want Onyeka to pull out as they’re pointless games& no WC

Not sure about EMC - really hope he isn’t called up but he’s better than Demerai Gray
