Absolutely, such clowns they are. Let's put a 30-year-old playing in the Victorian Premier League on the pitch against Germany because he had a few good games for FC Thun in 2005.
I'm really confused! only 2 of these players werent in the Asian cup squad (Rukavytsia + Langerak) so there should be 15 players laft from the asian cup squad, but when you look at the asian cup squad, and cut everyone who is no longer in the suad, you only get 14.... Please correct me if im missing something here...
