really whats this in aid of?

players would like a rest up before playing more euro ties and get slapped with this.

having to travel halfway round the world for a meaningless kickabout.

clubs pray to whatever gods will hear them for an injury-free break.

sure there are some blockbusters. Argentina-Brazil? Spain-Portugal? England-France?

not as if they have never played each other.

Thought I would show you my comments in the England v france thread regarding the team for this game
it's a friendly!!

BUT seeing as it's against the dirty cheese eating surrender monkeys - it should be taken more seriously.

Trouble with friendlies is the injuries to players. And for what?

Gerrard looks like he's strained a hammy so will probably miss a couple. It could cost Pool a European place and Roy his job. And for what?

Waste of time during the season.

Agree with most forumites about unnecessary friendlies, though did see 1st half on Setanta and was impressed with Blanc's 'new' France, with Nasri & co bossing midfield....
