Current state of the squad

Nigeria actually have an embarrassment of riches up front so I can't see Taiwo getting 2 x 90 mins but I suppose any competitive game time is good.

My worry is that the second game is away to Rwanda and without wanting to just stereotype here I can't imagine the surface at whichever ground they play at to be particularly helpful when you're struggling for fitness.

The impression I always seem to get when it comes to international breaks is that having players leave to play games in Africa seems much more risky based on the condition they seem to come back in, than any other continent.
Add to that that they seem happy to take them/give game time when deemed not fully fit by their clubs.

Yeah I can't say I have full confidence that Sangare, Taiwo, Boly or Aina will be properly looked after at all there.

Put it this way I'm more comfortable with Wood going to play international football in California next week or even going back home to NZ than I am with these lads going to African nations to play.

With only naming 24 players (over 21) in our squad, are we still able to add a free agent between now and January ?

Played footy on the park with my 2 boys earlier. Curled a couple into the top corner, one delightful finish off the cross bar!

When I took a shot on, I was saying "I'm Callum Hudson Odoi", then "I'm Elanga", then "I'm Morgan Gibbs white", then "I'm Dominguez", "Elliot Anderson"... "I'm Milenkovic" (when I had to a spot of defending against a tricky 6 year old), "I'm Chris wood", then "I'm Murillo", "I'm Yatesy" etc etc ....

Then I was Matt Selz when I went in net. And nothing got past me, saved everything.

Made me realise how many quality players we have. We've built a good squad a
