You would think logistically it would make sense for the 2 Columbian lads to have stayed in that part of the world after their tournament rather than lose that travel time returning to the UK. Originally posted by samprior

Are you serious? These people do have homes and families, just like the rest of us. They aren't on military service.

If I was Columbian, settled in the UK for my job, I would anticipate that would involve wife & kids (Immediate family) I get the opportunity to travel back to my home region (broadly speaking, the America's) to take part in a competition during the summer months, a period when the kids are off school, I have some money in the bank & earn a relatively good wage, so what would I do ? I would take the wife & kids to see our extended family, as a pro footballer I am still young enough (as indeed is my wife) to have at least some living parents & siblings, aunts, uncles friends from the region etc etc -

But your original comment was based purely on 'logistics', and nothing to do with spending time with the extended family or visiting Disneyland. It's a strange arrogance to opine so strongly about what other people ought or ought not to be doing in their private lives.

With respect, I havent opined strongly about other people, I have suggested what I would do if I was in their shoes / was faced with a similar situation. Originally posted by YT

If I had to guess at a return date, I would say early next week to join the squad here when they return from the US. Then they'll need to get some pre-season in. I don't expect any of the 6 to start the Brentford game but they may be on the bench. Just my views. At the end of the day these lads are human beings not machines and they need to manage their bodies carefully - something Glasner, fortunately recognizes.

EDIT Have just seen a video on facecloth from the club which confirms your post. All good. Edited by eagleman13 (29 Jul 2024 2.15pm)
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

I'd suggest that the three considerations for these 'tours' are, in order of priority: 1. Commercial I tend not to read too much into them as number 1 there surely accounts for about 95% of all considerations. I just pray for them to be injury free and, as always, perhaps with delusion, dream and wish for the emergence of a superstar out of the youth.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
