heffoman Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Ireland cruising at 2-0. Armenia drag it back to 2-2. A 90th min Var penalty to Ireland. Two Armenians red carded in protest. 3-2 to Ireland. A Scott Hogan star appearance and messing up a 1 on 1. Callum Robinson, Connor Hourihane all the villa classics. International Football doesnt come better or worse than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoobs Posted September 27, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted September 27, 2022 Good to see SJM captaining Scotland to Group A of Nations League whilst Grealish and co will be farting about in Group B when it comes round again.

England are 15th in current rankings behind HUngary, Switzerland, Austria and Czech at the moment Only Wales in Group A had a poorer ranking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Interesting draw G,H and I are quite weak compares to others but some talented players coming through those nations. Portugal couldn't have asked for a better draw. Can see England struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 England's hardest group for ages. Italy are better than us, Ukraine not what they were but still have some decent players, and North Macedonia are a bit like Hungary in being a small nation on a bit of an upswing.

VillaChris Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 When was the last time England actually beat Italy? Can only remember 1997 in that France 98 warm up. Obviously euros final and two recent nations league games weren't won and also didn't beat them in the famous qualification for France 98 nor some of the friendlies played in the 2000s so while everyone always thinks of Germany as England's bogey team going by records it's surely Italy.

sne Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Spurs refusing to release Kulusevski for Sweden's 2 upcoming friendlies against Mexico and Algeria ahead of the WC because the games are not on FIFA approved dates. Same goes for Mattias Johansson, Albin Ekdal, Carl Starfelt and Jens Cajuste. Since Sweden didn't make the tournament the clubs don't have to release the players... Olsen and Augustinsson are both in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
