As predicted New Zealand have cancelled their friendly with England in November. I know their was a gentleman's agreement between the losing playoff semi finalists but due to Covid travelling to Bosnia for a meaningless friendly that no team really wants to play. Do people think we should step in to the void left by New Zealand to have an extra game for Kenny to work with the team. I'll also point out that I do know that it probably wouldn't be a good game for World Rankings as we'd most likely lose.

I think the fallout from this international break for the weekend games will decide if England even try push for another game. The amount of players going to be out this weekend because of covid and travel impacts will be quite high and can see managers going ape sh*t

True enough, they will argue they have their own bubble though and international football,people are coming in from all over. Even if international breaks are still going ahead, I can see the clubs putting a lot of pressure on their players not to travel.

Away to Bosnia thanks to UEFA supposedly but not 100% confirmed. England would be much better if we have to play especially given we're in Cardiff first. Would allow SK to base themselves in England for the few days.

That's what I was thinking if we could base ourselves in say Bristol would avoid flights to and fro then back to Dublin for Bulgaria. As the independent article suggests I'd imagine an alternative date with Bosnia could be negotiated. I was thinking they could play Kosovo but I think they aren't allowed to play for political reasons.

All week people have been talking about getting seeding for the world cup. But now you want to lose to England? Are you mad? Losing to England unnecessarily could ruin our chances.
After tonights results we are the 20th UEFA ranked team. We are just hanging on 2nd seeds despite losing.  Losing to England in a friendly next game would cost us 3.16 points. It's way too tight for that.

A win is +6.84, draw is +1.84, loss is -3.16 If we play Bosnia instead A win is +4.58, draw is +0.42, loss is -5.42 Since the rankings don't factor in whether the game is home or away, we should just arrange a winnable game with anyone at home. A win against Oman would be +3.47

When you are in a sticky spot never play stronger nations in friendly matches.. A couple of years ago the SFA thought it would be clever to play Belgium and Portugal when we were going through indifferent form. We got hammered in both games and it hurt our rankings. We were stupid to play those games. Anyhow, if you do play England I would love it, just love it, if YBIG did manage to sneak a 1-0 win

As I said in the Kenny thread in their most recent game at home to Denmark they played five defenders and two holding midfielders - I would imagine due to the lack of faith Southgate has in his defence and goalkeeper. They would likely beat us but I really don't think it would be any kind of hammering. In any event it's a fixture we could do without at the moment. Be better off playing a team around or below our level at home.
