royalowlisback Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Luongo might not be selected due to hardly playing, ditto with Corbeanu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Luongo hasn't played for Australia since January 2019. Obviously a big chunk of the time since then has seen less fixtures played due to the pandemic. If he does get called up there could be complications around quarantine etc., they're due to play China at home then Vietnam away. Hope he doesn't get called up tbh (that's if he's even fit after Saturday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beighton Owl 87 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Moore said something about not wanting Luongo to go on international duty during the summer so they can manage his fitness. I'd be surprised to see him go yet as he's only just come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what Liverpool and others for their African players back in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 They're not even mentioning Luongo as being a likely member of the squad here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC_owl66 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 When are tickets on sale for Sunderland? I currently live in Scotland and was thinking of coming down to the match with my son for his birthday- we logged on our membership numbers but could not see any matches on sale.

Westfield Owl Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 It's really poor that the club haven't already got tickets on sale for this to POTG supporters. The game is next week FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo hippy Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I hope it is postponed I'll be away on holiday. Already missed all games last week too for the same reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 It’s doing my head in how late this announcement will be made. Looks like Thursday is the day the international squads get confirmed. Was wanting to bring a few family members as it’s the last weekend of the school holidays which is normally a family get together. Stupid international fixtures!!

I think it's still optional for a club to request a postponement even if they have 3 players called up. If we have less than 3 and Sunderland have a few fringe players called up rather than first team regulars, they may prefer to play it when we have Wildsmith in goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 It gives us a real unbalanced start if this home game is called off although we have plenty of free midweeks so I'm sure it'll be slotted in soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beswetherick Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Don’t mind it being postponed if BPF isn’t gonna be available - I’d fancy our chances much more with him between the sticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

International squads are finalised by Thursday and ourselves and Sunderland will make a decision then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
