International Break Thread: Last one this year!

[Jay29]

I will make a proper thread eventually, but for now you'll have to settle for this half-arsed one.

Tonight at 19:45, the England U21 are playing Iceland U21. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been called up. I think Henri Lansbury has as well, but I'll have to check that one.

[Raptorgunner]

At least there will be some football, hope all the gunners do well and come back healthy.

[Amar]

Might be the last one this year, but its still too brutal.

2 f*cking weeks.

[Jay29]

Both Chamberlain and Lansbury start for England U21.

Will be dividing my time between that and FM2012.

[Jay29]

Oxlade-Chamberlain scores! Had plenty of space to run through down the centre and he drilled it into the far corner.

[Jay29]

And he scores again! A tap-in this time. 75 minutes for him to get a hat-trick.

Next Ronaldo + Van basten put together

[Jay29]

Final score: Iceland U21 0 - 3 England U21.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain played the 90 and scored a very good hat-trick, his third being particularly impressive.

Other than that though, he wasn't that involved in the game. It was quite a dull affair, where England's midfielders struggled to really create much despite having most of the ball. Lansbury is included in this.

Chamberlain's individual brilliance pretty much won the game for England.

Stuart Pearce

How exactly can you leave out your brightest prospect.

[Jay29]

I was pleased that Josh McEachran and Ross Barkley both got minutes towards the end of the game, though I'm wondering how many more chances Rodwell will get.

Marvin Sordell is only fit striker now, too, now that Defouneso and Waghorn are both injured. Norway is going to be a tricky game on Monday.

AOC got a hat-trick? What a player.

Btw Jay, there is 1 more international break next month.

Impressive goals, good finishing.

2nd and 3rd goal major keeping errors but still good finishes.

We're neveeeeeeer gonna play Park ==
Why's Ox-Cart so ugly for ):

[MJ]

We bought Park to increase the growth of our Asian market :/ other than that he's nothing really special. He seems thrilled about it

[RealGunner]

Theo assisted the 1st goal for england

at least he gets to put on CV that he played for Arsenal

[Sushi Master]

Mertesacker had a solid game against Turkey. Was caught out of position a few times, but then again he's never played alongside Badstuber.

[Eman]

I didn't watch the game but Goal.com says Rosicky was the Czech Republic's best player against Spain. I'm going to assume/hope this isn't one of their many screw-ups
