Thats all i know

I watched Portugal-Argentina game,Meireles was superb in the middle,he was floating on the field from box to box with a great confidence!

Glad to see that nobody picked up an injury...and at least we don't have to worry about the ladyboy picking up a knock for Spain anymore!

I just hope all have the fitness to go this weekend. I am sure they will but still that is a lot of our midfield playing a lot of minutes midweek

Yeh but a meaningless game and a mega flight there and back to Buenos Aires.
He is our man on fire at the mo.

Thought the game was played in Switzerland?

Yeah, I believe they changed the venue from Emirates Stadium to Geneva.

Poulson had a good game for once

its a pity kelly was out. it would be nice to see him get some more international experience-even at u 21. Hes come on leaps and bounds

Christian Poulsen did have a good game.

He just sat around the halfway line and everything went through him. His movement was good as well as he really floated about for space and made himself available. No pace at all though. Seemed to walk through the game.

And how good was wonderkid Christian Eriksen? Outshone Jack Wilshere.

Very good. Trouble is he's probably now on the radar of a lot more clubs than he was before. We can only hope that he's big buddies with Dagger, Poulsen and Suarez

Ideally, we could save money on the deal.

We buy one return ticket to Denmark, Poulsen goes out on it, Eriksen comes back.

why are some players playing 90. mins in friendlies. ffs.

haha. now that would be a good bit of business! almost as good as buy one get one free...

These friendlies are a thorn in our side we could do without them,i know it"s a privilage to play for ones country but ffs how many of them have them to play and now with the new nations cup back on the agenda where will it end, for me i think stevieg should call it a day and concetrate on the club .

with a certain bi*ch gone, our international friendly injury worries have halved.

He looked incredible!  Would love it if we could nab him up in the summer!

break a leg nando

Or do your knee again

What's this thread about then........ Roy Hodgson (and others) kept saying we had a sh*te squad. 

Thought the game was played in Switzerland?

Aha. True.
It was a sh*te flight JD.
Propellers kept falling off and stuff. Wear anyone out. Even from Switzerland!

The problem with these internationals, there is always the risk that someone might risk getting injured and miss an important game for their club, which is more important than a meaningless friendly.

Anyone watch the 19's? Just wondered how our lads played.
