The game in 3 days is vs. Russia, and we are talking about the game vs. Ireland ;) it is in like 4-5 months. dont know the exact date... :)

my bad about lazevski though, i thought he was 19-20... I know he is called up in the team, but he didnt play because jonuz didnt want him to play, it wasnt because of injury... If i was him, id play lazevski as LB and Lazarevski as RB, sikov on the bench...

Plus, i am surprised that jonuz doesnt call Grozdanovski, i really think he can do some damage on the right, instead of ristic...

------------Naumovski-----------
Trickovski--Pandev--Grozdanovski

oh yeah...

ooopps...sry :)

Jonuz: Lazevski didn't play vs Andorra cuz he had small injury but he will play vs Russia. Let's see if that's true...

I think Ristic is okey,our problem is in the midfield.

So neither of our defences has much pace then. Aerially it's likely you'll have Doyle and neither have that much pace so it could be a fairly even game, few goals. Midfield battle and I think we could nick a win from a set-piece where we're dangerous from.

We'll see how the teams shape up as it's not for another while yet, still have another team in our ways.

I don't think hunt was even called up? Noel or Stephen Hunt?
I presum you mean Stephen, he has plenty of work but better coming off when we're winning. Always 100& running so he's good in Trap's book.

yeah, i meant Stephen... I know he isnt called, he has been injured for few months now, dont know when he will be back.. I love him as player, as i said, very underrated...

Anyway, you should benefit from your midfield.. It depends what happens in tuesday, if we lose vs. Russia, the morale will be down to zero, so you should be able to get comfortable win, by margin of 2-3 goals... If we draw, and maybe even win, than i predict a draw 0-0, 1-1 maybe, or a most likely, narrow win for Ireland, by one goal margin..

@Mercenary, yeah, i hope to see Lazevski too, lets see what happens in tueasday... And lazarevski should be switched to the right, i think shikov will be raped by those pacey russia players... At least lazarevski is faster..
As for ristic, yeah, he is player that needs the ball delivered to him, but i think we have better players than him, i love Maznov, i dont know why Jonuz doesnt rely on him...

I think we could both be looking at losses on Tuesday, away to Slovakia isn't easy either.

Well, we were close to win vs. Slovakia away ;) So it is not impossible, too bad our players had bad finishing that day, they blew up like 5 clear chances...

And our RB, Vance Sikov, got red card 3 minutes before the end of the game, and than we conceded, in 90+ minute :( Loss 1-0 at the start of the campaign...

Well i'm confident we can bury chances we get, experienced heads out there and 2012 will be their last tournament more than likely.
Leave this build up 'till match month :p

Pirlo has looked really good so far through qualifications, it wouldn't surprise anyone if he scores

I think Italia can win 2-0, I'm just concerned about breaking down Deki and co.

This will be the most likely line up after the debacle that was the Estonia game from Serbia:

Stojkovic
Ninkov Ivanovic Subotic Obradovic
Stankovic Kuzmanovic
Krasic Ninkovic Tosic
Lazovic

Vidic is suspended but I look for Subotic to step up from his BVB form and make it count versus Italy. The main danger man for me in the squad is Ninkovic as Krasic will more than likely be double teamed by Criscito and Chiellini.

Believe it or not, I can see us winning this game. We are culturally like that.. we will dismiss the minnows and lose, but we really get up for the big games. Plus we always like playing Italy out of the larger countries due to the tempo. I am actually pretty confident of our midfield against Pirlo, Marchisio, and Mauri.

The only players that really concern me are Pazzini and Cassano.

Yeah, we lost against Azerbaijan and I say WTF too. :frustrat::wallbang2:

Our players are a shame for this country. They did not care at all. I mean, crossing into the box at the 90th min against a box full of 11 Azeri players to score is a NONSENSE. Anyway, Hiddink in NOT the one to blame for this, players were shit.

Jesus christ. We (Finland) just lost to Hungary AT HOME. Three games played, zero points. This is beyond ridiculous. Hopefully this joke of a coach (Stuart cocksucker Baxter) is fired immediately if he doesn't figure it out to quit himself.

Unbelievable stuff.

these two i like... But why shikov, why? Lazarevski is like 10x better than him...

Maybe jonuz wants to use the height department from set pieces, who knows, generally russia are short team... We'll see, hoping for a draw :D

We all knew those players would play like shit... They can't even get into first XI in their teams. I totally blame Oguz Cetin (who picked players for National Team) for this, he is a disgrace for our national team...

Kerzhagoool 0-1

FU! :p

You are russian mate?

Anyway, back on topic... We played well, we werent bad... One great movement by the russians and bit bad positioning from our GK, and that's it, 0-1... Now in the second half, we will press a bit more, and russia will score from counter, at least once, and we will lose 0-2, or 0-3...

Lazevski dissapointed me tbh, he made few mistakes, misplaced passes and was poor in defense... Shikov was crap as always, so as Sumoliikovski... The rest are fine, i loved Trickovski and i am impressed by ibraimi, i knew he was good technician, but i can see he is even better than i thought...

and i have to mention the ref has been pretty crap, didint see few obvious fould on pur players, and didnt see few obvious dives by the russians...
