I know that there rae prob a few threads on this but balls to it. We recently lost to Estonia with a quite a few players missing due to injury. But its not just that game recenlt iv noticed that a lot of the player from my national team just dont bother turning up or are suddenly injured once the internationals arrive. For instance Jonny Evans wasnt available forthe Estonia game and wont be for the italy game but i can bet that he will either be in the united team or on the bench.
BBC Sport - Maik Taylor says NI players 'resent' squad withdrawals
Before i sound like im ranting its not just us its been happening to though when your as small acountry as we are we feel it a little harder. What do other people think about those who show up when it suits them and leaves the rest of the more committed players to slug it out in places like serbia and Kazakstan and the horrible places you end up in international football.
Is it not time for FIFA to do something about this because the players dont care at all about playing for their country, i am the only one who gets pissed off about this?

From the sounds of it, you've been a bit of a shambles since Worthington took over with poor tactics, players playing out of position. I don't think it's right to sit out full qualifiers but when you have a manager that is apparently as bad as he is, there's little wonder why people don't want to play under him.
