25 players away on Int'l duty.............

How many will return injured??? What a fucking joke so early on in the season - UEFA/FIFA are nob-jockey's.

I hate these international breaks when teams are just getting up to speed then Mr. Blatter's money making scheme comes into play, the clubs pay the wages, spend a fortune getting their players up to speed and they are taken away on a money spinning exercise, and maybe they will come back injured so i wonder why we don't take the Wenger and SAF view and not release them. The trouble is you are between the devil and the deep blue sea in the fact that these players want to play for their countries which is understandable, i would be proud to represent my country, but we should be more sensible about when these games are played.

Argentina v Nigeria in Bangladesh - I wonder how much Blatter got in in his skyrocket for agreeing to that farce.
