International break..zzzz

[This Is The Daybreak]

Ten out of Ten, for me it is even worse than the summer break as you're just getting into the season and enjoying the routine then they have a crap international weekend, at least during summer you get used to the football not being there. Also another one is due in mid-October, why do they have to have so many, why can't they just stick them all the qualifiers in June/July and get them over with.

Fucking hate it. Hate international football. And this fucking rubbish of having so many Interlull games at the start of the season is fucking arsecunt. Hate FIFA and UEFA. Hate Septic Bladder and his little poodle Shatini.

Was appalled at some of the xenophobic (and at times racist) shit that was on here during the recent Euros. The Interlull seems to bring out the worst kind of xenophobic pseudo-patriotic spitefulness in alot of people.

Club before country. Always.

On a scale of one to ten, how much does everyone hate the international break? Also frustrated Deschamps is risking Diaby for Frances midweek game.

The competition needs a revamp. They should do a 4 group system playing once each and then straight to knockouts for qualification rather than this boring system where the big nations thump the might Andorra.

Exactly - its a total borefest lasting 2 years and UEFA needs to work with FIFA on sorting out the European qualification programme. Two of England's first three games are sodding Moldova (a) - 5 nil in the bank already - then we have the humdinger at home to San Marino to look forward to.

In Asia, Africa, Oceania etc they have initial qualifying rounds so that the likes of the Cook Islands and Tonga can play each other first to get rid of the initial crap. All major club competitions do this - we don't have fucking Barcelona playing Airbus UK in July - so why do we have to endure this crap and watch our top players get kicked around some bog by Andorra or the Faroes (although I do admit to having a laugh when it happens to Scotland.......and I would gladly see Van Pursestrings on the end of it )

ESPN had Diaby listed as a sub for France. along with Kos.

Per wasn't used.

Fabregas only played 10 minutes again

Canada with a legitimate shot at the final round of WC2014 qualifiers if they get a big result in Panama tonight. Huge game for us!
