Yeah this international break will do his confidence the world of good. Hopefully get a couple more vs Cayman Islands on Saturday and come back for pre-season a bit closer to his old self.

That's some Mickey Mouse internationals.

It's a choice by FIFA to get similarly ranked nations from different confederations to play each other to help balance the ranking. Cayman Islands are ranked above Gibraltar but lost to BVI recently so a Gibraltar win on Saturday would help them overtake Cayman Islands in the FIFA rankings and fix the bias against weaker countries in historically stronger regions. Plus it's a rare novelty to see British overseas territories from different continents playing each other.
 
Scanlon on the scoresheet again for Gibraltar in El Taxico vs Cayman Islands. Currently 4-1 up

Bradbury has been called up to Wales' squad for the U19 Euros. They face Spain, Germany & Denmark in the group stage.
 
Dante Plunkett named in Jamaica's squad for the U20 CONCACAF Championship in Mexico.
 
Think he's probably doing it for the experience, he looks pretty likely to declare for Ireland. Well-deserved though, he's a fantastic player.

Yep, and he is dead right to do so if it further improves his game. He really does look like he'll make it, and from what everyone is saying back home, he has the mentality to go with the skills.

JJ playing behind Ben for Ireland at the 2034 World Cup would be quite something. One can dream...
 
Do Ireland under 16s not have games coming up too? Will be interesting to see what happens if we call him up for them too.

They do, this Tuesday & Thursday vs Wales. It's possible he could play for both teams as the games don't clash.
 
Lyne has withdrawn from the England squad. He’s replaced by Jaice Dore who deservedly receives his fist call-up.
 
Lyne captained Ireland today in a 3-0 loss to Wales.
