Quick question for Marcus Haber if he's on here, is a friendly against Guatemala that you'll probably be on the bench for more important than the potential relegation of your club?

That's it for me. He can go to his meaningless friendly and not return.
Steve was absolutely right to drop him last night, and we should look to bring one or two forwards on loan as a matter of urgency.
Give Saunders a run instead of this guy...at least he IS committed.

I like Haber, but now he's just taking the p*ss.

Well Davis knew he was going to play international football and must have taken that into consideration when signing him.

This is about Haber's priorities. He's been down the pecking order for a large chunk of the season, but he's finally getting a run of games.
Would you travel to Canada to play 15 minutes in a meaningless friendly or stay and keep your place in the team (the ones who pay your wages) and help them fight off relegation?
It's hardly Brazil they're playing either...

Pulling on an England shirt used to be the absolute pinnacle of achievement, so I'm led to believe. Times have changed this side of the 'pond', it seems, sadly.
In Canada it may be different, and Haber may feel that representing his country is the highest he's going to get as a professional, so I can understand that.
Yes, I'd love it if the international games didn't clash with our current battles, but I'm prepared to give the lad a break. It's a difficult choice: praise from the supporters of a small to medium-sized Div 1 English club; or representing your country?

I could 100% understand that if it wasn't a friendly, or it was his first cap, or if he was the main striker for Canada.
But it's two frankly meaningless friendlies that he's unlikely to get much game time in.
It doesn't even make sense to me as a player that wants to play more for Canada, if we get relegated and he's part of that side it will hurt his chances of a call up massively. A lot more than a goal against Guatemala will do him good.
International
would give my left one for a chance at being on the bench for england, what would you all do? Don't be hypocritical
