Lrrr Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 With the news van Dijk has just withdrawn from the Netherlands' squad for Tuesday due to personal reasons, Henderson supposedly with a virus and Gomez with some training injury. These withdrawals all seem very convenient right after their country has qualified for the finals.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using injury as a reason to withdraw your players from international matches is common place,. As Downend said, Ferguson did it all the time. It’s the old ‘club v country’ dilemma.

If the national team insists on using their own doctors to assess, then it can be out of the hands of a club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a bit of a precedent some years ago I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maltshoveller Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 If FIFA/UEFA made a rule saying any player who drops out of international squads for ANY reason cannot play for their clubs for 10 days after the international match Think that would stop clubs making players drop out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I'm sure there was some sort of case years ago with Makelele along those lines @Maltshoveller . http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/chelsea/5291486.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gomez is fine, he ain't injured, just that his ego is bruised after he was booed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave Sterling out for the Montenegro game and leaving Gomez out for the Kosovo game. Gives both of them to cool down after the fracas they were involved in.

Don't particularly see why people hate ManUre but give Liverpool a free pass for the same arrogance and plastic fans other than they're not old enough to remember the 1980s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
