The Great, Big Royal International Thread

Only if they aren't fully vaccinated - so we'll soon find out there.

Moore is only in the squad for Jamaica's home game v Panama as their 2 away games are in red list countries (Mexico & Costa Rica).

Hoilett is only in Canada and the US.

For Yiadom and Rahman, I can only assume they will return after today's game in Ghana as the next match is in South Africa, so if they travel there they will have to do 10 days in hotel quarantine.

I’m sure they would just re-route their return journey via an Amber country so it wouldn’t matter.

Or have the rules changed again?

At no point was this the rules.

Were these the rules*
Was this the rule*

[Jagermesiter1871]

Was not ever rule.

Moore carried on his fine start to the season, playing the full 90 as Jamaica lost 3-0 to Panama.

Their next game seems to be Thursday at 2am our time. Dunno if he is likely to play but surely won’t be back in time for Saturday

But yeah did note the score line and sadly unsurprised

Oh no what a shame.

He's only playing the Panama game so may even already be back in the UK.

Is there any way we can delay his flight until September 12th?

2023.

Would Jamaica pick up his wages for that period as well?

Sadly not, but at least we don't have to watch him fail to earn the absolute fortune he's stealing from us.

Huge congratulations to Luke Southwood on his first senior international call-up, as he gets set to link up with Northern Ireland for games against Lithuania and Italy!

[Hendo]

Nice! Good for him. Rafael punching that whiteboard might be the best ever thing that happened to Southwood.

[Sutekh]

Can he displace Pat Jennings though?

[Snowflake Royal]

Nice! Good for him. Rafael punching that whiteboard might be the best ever thing that happened to Southwood.

Was good news for us too. If he hadn't I expect Southwood would have gone and performed well elsewhere as another one that wasn’t trusted and got away.

Should be our No 1 for a couple of seasons at least now.

Unless he catches the eye as McCarthy did and gets the offer of a PL bench somewhere. Personally though I’d hope he can be kept as part of the proverbial spine of a team to build something special around.

Junior Hoilett and Andy Yiadom are involved in crucial World Cup qualifiers, while Lucas Joao (no longer with Portugal but for Angola) and Mamadi Camara are called up for their country for the first time! Also goalkeepers Orjan Nyland and Luke Southwood.

It always seems a misnomer to me to call it an International "break" as if many will be able to chill out for a couple of weeks.

Most Prem and Championship clubs will vary from having many to some players away so the better term might be something like "disruption".

For those of us with little interest in international football I see it as a time for potential injuries and travel fatigue at a time when the home league and cup competitions are reaching a peak.
