Speaking of which, James Rodriguez got bounced from the Copa America squad due to fitness issues.

I wonder if anyone expected his career to go the way it has back in 2014 when he lit it up at the World Cup. It's not a bad career, but I think that tournament was his peak.

Weren't there rumours he was refusing to play for Everton at the end of the season in case he got injured? Lmao

Brown Kev just got knocked unconscious in the CL Final so I'd be hesitant on supporting the Blegums.

How long does a broken eye socket take to recover because it could mean he misses the tournament

I hope it doesn't get delayed or cancelled because the BBC has the rights and it was going to be on at the same time as the euros for basically 24 hours of continuous football but south America is pretty hosed by covid

A random question i've got mostly because Kante might manage it. Can anyone think of a player who has won a domestic league + cup, uefa cup/europa league and champions league and then the world cup + their continental cup?

Looks like all of those are dependant on the biennial World Cup, which I think is very unlikely. As I've seen suggested elsewhere, I reckon it's a stalking horse for the expanded Club World Cup.

They tried this first except nobody wanted to give them the amount of money needed for it. The expanded world cup is extremely popular with a ton of countries that never qualify FAs as tbe money they get from the world cup is basically all the get so it's all extremely corrupt.in that classic FIFA way.

Lol though at this

its clear he wants "experienced" players in the squad despite form/playing in the saudi league but surely thats covered by multiple other players and at some point, like say a friendly against australia, its time to bring new players in
