FIFA International Match Calendar

Hopefully he'll be ready when he comes at the end of the window.

At the end of the window, end of the international break, I should say.

So hopefully we get them back

then.

chance? Yeah, Jimmy Gardner coming back from injury for a hernia operation, which he rushed back to be back for the start of the season, was probably unexpected if it was going to happen.

I think Keenan might just be a little bit unlucky to be outside of it at the moment, but if he keeps scoring, keeps playing the way he has been, then he'll be in with an outside chance.

This is the final game before an extended international break, so obviously two breaks before the end of the year instead of three.

What are your thoughts around that? Does it benefit?

Welcome back to the Plus Money Podcast, your home for the best soccer bets in 15 minutes or less.

We have a decent weekend around European football before the dreaded three-week international break.

I'm Andrew Passaro.

He's Nick Diani.

I think both Madrid clubs come into this game realizing we have to win this game, which, again, I don't trust the defense for either of these teams right now, which is crazy to say for a Mourinho side and for a Simeone side.

All right, both teams score parlay.

Last one before we go on international break.

I'm going to start in the Premier League.

Looking forward to this, the last weekend of club soccer for 19 days.

After this thing wraps up, we have an extended international break, which will kind of suck, but at least.

there won't be another one quite so soon.

So we'll have a nice long stretch of soccer if we can just get through that 19 days.

Yeah, it always comes a little quick.

Always comes a little too quick, that international break.

But when we do come back, we're going to have tons of gambling opportunities.

We got the Champions League going in full swing.

And I think it's going to be that is where, if anything, being able to rotate more heavier than we did in the Carabao Cup game could really see us be able to press for longer than they can.

And of course, after this game, we come into our first ever mammoth international break.

It's like three weeks long.

It is absolutely ludicrous.

We have a huge wait till we play Leeds at home.

Elves, the thing about going into these international breaks is you never want to go into it off the back of a bad result, right? It just feels crap.

when you've got a break, and this one being even longer than usual.

Winning here, this start to the season has been immense, right? It's been absolutely amazing.

How's Conor Chaplin looking? Good.

He'll be in a good place after the international break.

I think we'll utilise this time.

Of course, there's always a temptation to try and bring him back in quickly, but we just have to be patient.

But after the international break, I think this break will be really good for him because he'll have some training time.

And then he'll be back after that.

And obviously, you've had a bit more time with Wout Vars and Roya Koulibaly a week on from when you gave an update on them.

I think, obviously, we want to go on a winning streak for as long as possible.

it's probably probably since lakaka

i was going to say that even though it was such a stupid list he literally turned oh my word we're having an international break for fuck's sake morgan don't do any interviews

no interviews i've always loved bella

No, no, no. I'll tell you what, the Midlands, I just miss orange chips so much.

I mean, we just can't afford much more.

eHouseLog1, hello from Minnesota.

Is this the most annoying international break of all time? Well, we have five episodes to bring you before we play Bournemouth.

So read into that what you wish.

So see you next time.

The Town are back at Kenilworth Road on Saturday for our final game before the international break when Bradford City are the visitors.

Alongside me to look ahead to the game is the Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe.

Jimbo beat them here last season.

It seems to take an age getting in that goal, doesn't it?

but the whole night took an age mate to be fair um hopefully Saturday isn't like that so get your score predictions in to us uh if you can and um Yeah, if you get the correct score, we'll give you three points in the shout-out to the review episode, which will be out to you on Monday morning.

We're still working on what we're going to do during the international break.

We're kind of thinking about doing an Ask Us Anything podcast, aren't we? Just to keep you guys in with some content.

Yeah, it's kind of the standout things.

We're at an international break.

Last week before an international break, Bill Shelburne was playing a couple of games because they got fixtures moved from Europe.

Stephen Kenny was complaining about the schedule.

The guy that's only been to the League of the Cup, no European games.

Sometimes they might just, sometimes they'll vocalise it, sometimes they won't vocalise it.

So I completely get that.

No, you can't be giving out about that, no. It's an international break, what do you expect?
