    I'm surprised they didn't just train as normal during the international break. Do Sheffield United have any international players?

    John Egan - played both games for Ireland and Enda Stevens played the one against Switzerland. John Fleck played for Scotland against Russia. Dean Henderson was in the England squad!

    Assuming that chap you name plays for SU, then that means they have more players in the England squad than we do.

    When did we last have an England international? Wilshere? Walcott? What happened to them and Ox?

    It's not having players in the French squad that hurts me. Does Laca get in their squad now when he's fit?

    Actually, do we have any proper internationals any more? i.e. not countries like Greece, Switz, Bosnia etc. Proper countries.

    Wekbeck was probably our last England player, though Willock will be soon. Deschamps doesn't like Laca (though Guendozi was in the squad last time. Ceballos plays for Spain. Leno is in the Germany squad and quite frankly its a bit ****y to talk about proper countries, particularly when one of the ones you slate has won a major international tournament in the last 15 years

    Best played for Northern Ireland, Weah for Liberia. Bale plays for Wales. Are Belgium a proper country? The Netherlands?

    Of course the Cloggies are a proper country - I've been happy living there which is the major criterion in whether a country is proper or not.

    I forgot about Greece. That must have been sometime in the first decade of the century. I was playing babyfoot outside my truck somewhere in the South of France (c. Toulouse, perhaps) and put the radio on to hear laughing French commentators making jokes about how all the kebab (sandwich Grec) sellers in the centre of Paris must be having fun.

    Hadn't even really been aware the tourney was on.

    Didn't another small team win recently? Or am I thinking of Jensen 92?

    How are the Bubbles doing now? I take it Papa Sok plays for them.
