Van Persie, Bale, Sturridge, Vermaelen, Smalling, Luiz and Gerrard. All injured playing in pointless friendlies during the week. So fans who spend their hard earned at one of the many Premiership games will be shortchanged because The Brazilian Federation decided they just had to play Bosnia last week. I mean the world of football would be on its knees if that fixture hadn't of happened. Arsene Wenger is fuming as the spine of his team is on the injured list,  i think the only one smiling is Mancini as all of his players made it to the end safely. Basically we all calling for an end to these spineless games, does it really matter if Scotland triumph over Slovenia, its not as if either will be pitting their wits against Europe's elite this summer. Oh but wait one might pop up two places higher to 298th in the world!! Is it really worth it!
