Anyone else feel like this? I get that they are required but my god it makes the weekend boring. Betting isn’t as good, the fantasy football isn’t on and the other games other than my own countries just don’t interest me, whereas I take a massive interest in most clubs fortunes in the top 2 leagues in England.

It’s even worse when England play on a Friday because then there isn’t even a decent game to look forward to on sat/sun.

I’m a chesterfield fan so at least I always get my own team playing, for now that is. I reckon in 5 years we will be in the prem and brimming with internationals… Maybe.

    Not just boring, but also extremely nerve-wracking because I never know how many casualties we’re going to get (again).

      Only thing is that the players would only play together once a year. They do need a few get togethers throughout the season. I get it. I just don’t like it

    I prefer international breaks, because teams can’t buy their way to glory (looking at you man city).

    Players don’t stay there for money, etc. It’s like lower league football. Feels less like a Hollywood movie and more like “real football”.

    Can someone explain why there are international breaks in the middle of the season? Wouldn’t it make more sense to move them in the summer?
