Domenici, Bush, Gapare...making history?

3
Canberran Stephen Domenici opened the scoring for the Joeys in Tashkent yesterday. Danai Gapare also got game time. I'm assuming Chris Bush was injured.See release below.

Question: How many other Canberran or Goulburn Under 16's or younger have ever even been to Uzbekistan?
And who in that age range from this region,if anyone, has ever played a sporting contest in that country? Click to continue reading...

Briatore Talking About QPR..."On This Day" Flashbacks: Ray Wilkins Departs...Assistant Manager Departure Confirmed..."QPR line up Argentinian Manager"

0
-
Marking one year since the takeover, QPR Chairman Flavio Briatore was the guest last night on BBC Radio London. It was an interesting interview in which Briatore came across very "grounded" and that QPR wouldn't be repeating some of the financial mistakes it made in years past; but certainly not one in which QPR sounded like it was "The Richest Club in the World" or would be spending big any time soon.

Match Of The (Mid)Week: England 2-2 Czech Republic

2
Friendly internationals, we are told, are not about the result. They're about the performance, and about preparing the team for competitive matches to come. What, then, are we to make of a match when more or less the only thing to come from a friendly match that can so much as remotely be regarded as [. Click to continue reading...

Italy 2-2 Austria: Did Anyone Say “Friendly Match”?

3
Don't let the above picture fool you. Despite the "friendly" intentions of Austria's nº16 on Gennaro Gattuso (sorry, couldn't resist...), Italy vs. Austria seemed, at times, anything but friendly. In fact as soon as they were up by two goals, the Austrians thought this could very well be exploit-day for them. Click to continue reading...

U21: Finland 1 Sweden 1

8
The respective U21 sides of Finland and Sweden had nothing between them as their friendly match in Turku drew to a close, and the result - one goal for each - reflected the proceedings quite well. The hosts started the game well, with Tomi Petrescu, Perparim Hetemaj, Berat Sadik and Tim Sparv all causing trouble to [. Click to continue reading...

Final Observations of England Friendly Against Czech Republic (2-2)

1
• It's clear that England is really lacking in two positions – left wing and center forward. Steven Gerrard is a very good player and performed well on the left today, but that's not his natural position and he doesn't give England much width. He needs to play in the position Frank Lampard occupied today. Click to continue reading...

Observations of England Friendly Against Czech Republic--First Half

1
• Well, I had it wrong earlier when I said Gareth Barry would be on the left and Steven Gerrard in the middle. The two were reversed to start, though Gerrard ended up drifting inside anyway. Ashley Cole and Wes Brown, the left and right backs, respectively, both needed to get forward and provide some necessary width to the team. Click to continue reading...

Lampard Paired With Gerrard in England's Starting Lineup

2
Yes, you read correctly.

We've seen this story before. Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard can't play together in the same midfield, but yet England boss Fabio Capello is going to give it another try in today's friendly against the Czech Republic. This should be interesting.

The other surprise in the starting lineup is Gareth Barry, not because of his inclusion but because of his position. Click to continue reading...

Observations of England U-21 Friendly Against Slovenia

0
• I was disappointed to see how many empty seats there were at Hull City's KC Stadium. I know this was only a friendly, but come on. These players are the future of England's national team, and the already small stadium wasn't even half-full to watch them. • I liked the 4-3-3 employed by Pearce. Click to continue reading...

Do We Really Care? I Mean, Really?

Oh, to spend a day living inside Fabio Capello's head.

England Squad Announced for Czech Republic Friendly

1
Fabio Capello has named his 23-man roster for England's friendly against the Czech Republic on Wednesday, and there were a couple of surprise absentees, one of which really bothers me.

I can't emphasize enough just how highly I rate Aston Villa's Ashley Young, who had a breakout season last year and was rewarded with a place in the PFA Team of the Year for his efforts. Click to continue reading...
