Just seen that Miroslav Stoch has been included in the Slovakia squad, so i thought i would start this thread up so we can keep an eye on our boys at the World Cup. There were rumours Bruma could make the Dutch squad but wasnt included. The usual suspects will be going no doubt, Malouda, Drogba, Mikel (though i thought he had quit international football), the England lads, crazy Ivanetc.

Good idea. We should get a definitive list. I think the deadline for squads is today so we will know later.

Im on Kalou watch myself.

Good Luck.

Let me know if anything happens.

Will do.

Who is going for the Mikel extravaganza ?

It will be good to watch Mikel playing for Nigeria to see if he is actually the complete midfielder some would have us believe. Would love to see this all singing all dancing player I have heard so much about but not actually witnessed as yet.

The one who is wasted at DM you mean ? The one whose natural attacking ability is curbed so badly by having to sit deep ?

Really looking forward to seeing it too.

In all seriousness id love to be proved wrong. i mean it, i would be thrilled if it suddenly became obvious that we have been mistreating this midfield dynamo.

really not going to hold my breath though.

One of the blogs I read are doing a preview for every team, they reckon Stoch is in the starting XI, so I hope to watch some of Slovakia's games now.

I was SUPPOSED to watch Essien.

I guess Drogs will do.

Me and a bunch of mates have set up a blog where we've selected a couple of teams each. We're going to pay close attention to 'our' teams and will write about some of the interesting individuals. I have selected France and Slovakia.... France for the Chelsea contingent obviously but also Gourcuff and Slovakia for Stoch and Hamsik.

I´m going for Ivanovic. Really interesting team this Serbia and I would like to see them doing well in WC.
