lets hope Boro were impressed with Arzani... they have a pretty decent connection with CIty..maybe he can go there.

The Boro team and coach might actually need him

Hes now scored 9 for the season ...

We had better hurry up and cap him as he is leading scorer in that league that qualifies for scotland and hasnt already been capped. We are leaving this dangerously late as weve done so many times in our past. Don't want another Seric or Golum situation where we called them up same time as croatia and turkey respectively and both went with the other countries. Joey Simunic too. 

We never learn

Agree completely cumming i understand not capping as he's not been consistent but Dykes has been a known scorer for 2 seasons now.   Last season albeit was 2nd div scotland but he's now doing it in premier league.   Needs to be called up

Holland starting against Salzburg
Goodwin starting against Al Ahli
Behich bench

Al Ahli appeared to score but it actually hit the side netting. VAR took more than three minutes to confirm.



By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

2-3 win for LASK to send them top

Also according to Twitter this ends a 52 home game unbeaten run for RB Salzburg. I am guessing this only counts league games.

Behich not playing. Smith not up for Cardiff as yet. Elder is a shoe in! Holland stakes a very strong claim for the next window.

Found something interesting: 
16yo Zak Gilsenan made his debut for the Blackburn rovers u23 team earlier today - coming on in the 76th minute against Callum Watt’s Southampton (watts coming on in 80th minute). 

This is the top tier of the u/23 comp - and Blackburn are doing very well this year (just behind the Liverpool and Arsenal academies). 16 is pretty young for this comp. 
I remember that he played with the Joeys last year in that group of friendly games in the UK. He was hailed as the Irish Messi from a young age. One to keep an eye on. 
PS: sadly 17 in May so too old to play With Mo Toure for the Joeys AFC Comp in Bahrain in September

Yeah very confusing to have two players for the same team, playing the same position, who have names so similar.

wasn't long ago he was looking the goods to kick on in top flight. shame he wasn't given a better run in a more expressive team.

wednesday were close to the promotion places not long ago. unfortunately a bad run - 2 draws and 3 losses in their last 5 have them mid table. probably not looking good for a premier league debut for luongo anytime soon.
