It was almost too easy for us. Kosovo much worse than Georgia yet people predicted this game to be harder.
Sagnol seems to have Georgia playing good counter football.It was almost too easy for us. Kosovo much worse than Georgia yet people predicted this game to be harder.

Why not drop mc tominay into a back 3Clarke is clueless. The 352 isn’t suiting Scotland at all. I’d also be looking to get Gilmour into the midfield, as he offers something others don’t, despite his lack of games at Chelsea.
Marshall
O’Donnell - Hanley - Tierney - Robertson
Gilmour - McTominay
Armstrong - McGinn - Fraser
Adams
RB/RCB both worries and perhaps Tierneys size, but that’s a side more than good enough to beat the likes of Israel ffs.
And there goes Poland's only chance of getting any result.Lewandowski is out of the England/Poland match on Wednesday due to injury, real pity wanted to see him and Kane on the same pitch together..
Most likely..And there goes Poland's only chance of getting any result.
Are Piatek and Milik in the squad? Still reasonably good strikers so will still be a test for England backline.Most likely..
Who cares about that match? He is in danger for the matches against Leipzig and PSG...Lewandowski is out of the England/Poland match on Wednesday due to injury, real pity wanted to see him and Kane on the same pitch together..
Swiderski is being tipped to start up front with Piatek or Milik supporting.Are Piatek and Milik in the squad? Still reasonably good strikers so will still be a test for England backline.
Might miss the match against Leipzig he’s been sidelined for up until 10 days with knee ligament damage.Who cares about that match? He is in danger for the matches against Leipzig and PSG...
I wouldn't be sure about that - Poland are still a good team even without him.And there goes Poland's only chance of getting any result.
Aye.Yeah, that was me.
I get that. To me it's two non-ideal choices. I think there is far too much pointless International football that clogs up the more important football calendar (not being elitist here, just talking about club football). And the pointlessness comes from pairing teams together where you know the result beforehand, and it's not even a tournament, but a qualifier. But I understand it's similar to smaller clubs wanting to draw big clubs in the cups, though the money is a huge factor there, it's also about the excitement of it. For the neutrals though, there is no excitement seeing England destroy San Marino and England fans being down after the match because they did not score enough from the chances created. Meanwhile, most of these players' clubs are desperate to keep them fit in order to comply with the mad schedule.From a minnows perspective that's the worst kind of elitism you can ever consider..
As Estonian team we rely on these draws for Euro or World Cup plays to get to play with the best teams in the world or atleast Europe. We don't want to play with the ones at our level just a chance to get points, but we want to have the best here also.

Adekugbe from my local club having his talent wasted on the bench because of this random Davies guy.Tweet

Ricardo Ferreira and Frank Sturing will both be committed to the Canadian national team after this. I'm really looking forward to watching Ricardo Ferreira play as well as Corbeanu.
When we faced Bermuda, we had Davies on the left wing and Adekugbe at left back. Adekugbe looked decent, too, until he got injured and had to leave. With the Cayman Islands being weaker, I think Herdman's playing it safe and going with a fully-fit XI.Adekugbe from my local club having his talent wasted on the bench because of this random Davies guy.
So Canada are in the pre-qualifying section of CONCACAF qualifiers with a lot of the smaller nations.Tweet

There are, yeah, but you never know what would happen in the next stage. We were tipped to go far in the most recent Gold Cup, too, only to lose to Haiti at the end.So Canada are in the pre-qualifying section of CONCACAF qualifiers?
The 5 automatically through to the last section are USA and Mexico (obviously), and Costa Rica, Honduras, Jamaica.
Canada seem to be the next ranked team, so just miss out. I know they've got a few decent players in the squad - is there high hopes of them making it to a 2nd world Cup this time?
Bermuda were the next-highest ranked team in the group after Canada, so the other opponents won't be as hard. There have been discussions in the media about Canada potentially breaking their record scoreline against the Cayman Islands tonight. So far, we're 2-0 up, and we haven't played 20 minutes yet.Canada thumped Bermuda last week, will be interesting to see if Cayman do any better. Weird stuff here with regards to players and the coach being unable to travel due to covid-19 issues (Bermuda).
I only recently saw that Suriname have finally started picking Dutch players with Surinamese heritage. Unsurprisingly their results have picked up since then, so they might be ones to watch out for as well?Bermuda were the next-highest ranked team in the group after Canada, so the other opponents won't be as hard.

Yeah, we'd have to be wary of them, too, but if we destroy the Cayman Islands, then we can afford to take it easy against Suriname in the next international window.I hadn't realised that Suriname have finally started picking Dutch players with Surinamese heritage.
