A couple of points if I may:
1. Seeding : Pointless friendly especially considering that it may affect our seedings for the world cup draw.
2. Rats & Ghoulish : Will they play? Me thinks there will be a lot itchy trigger feet amoungst the current Irish squad.
3. Poppy : Its the day after armistice...will the team be requested to wear it?
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist thinks it will change; the realist adjusts the sails.
Oh yeah, forgot about the poppy sh1te. Makes it worse again.
I might start McClean in the game just for that( I wouldnt be upset to see him get 2 yellow cards for 2 hard tackles either)
Thats the scenario I think this Kenny guy is a bit of naive, he may cheapen our national team in twenty days from today, plus he may place his head in the guillotine
I reckon the FA and even Southgate are too clever to allow that to happen. As i said England are playing a lot of players at the moment. The two lads will not be playing in the Irish game I suspect !
To be honest about it England could put out a very weak team against Ireland at the moment and still expect to do well !
Thats how the english operate things, can they make the irish wear the poppy symbol for the game?
eire republic vs england is never a friendly
it is like argentina vs brazil or holland vs germany, those are classic football matches.
Argentina vs england is never a friendly neither
If we can't break our scoring duct against a team with Jordan Pickford in goal and Harry Maguire in defence then Kenny may aswell pack it in the following morning.
