España call ups for friendly against Macedonia

[http://users.livejournal.com/_almagitana/]

Vicente Del Bosque made his squad announcement this morning for the game that will be played next tuesday in Macedonia. There are a few changes. Iniesta and Senna are still out, Ramos is also injured and Llorente and Pablito weren't called up (WTF??). The new kid on the block is Ignacio Monreal, a defender from Osasuna, shown here in his head shot and doing god knows what with Bojan...





FULL CALL UP:

KEEPERS:Iker Casillas (Real Madrid), José Manuel Reina (Liverpool) y Diego López (Villarreal).
DEFENDERS: Raúl Albiol (Real Madrid), Carlos Marchena (Valencia), Joan Capdevila (Villarreal), Álvaro Arbeloa (Real Madrid), Gerard Piqué (FC Barcelona), Carles Puyol (FC Barcelona) e Ignacio Monreal (Osasuna).
MIDFIELDERS:Albert Riera (Liverpool), David Silva (Valencia) Xavi Hernández (FC Barcelona), Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid), Santi Cazorla (Villarreal), Juan Manuel Mata (Valencia), Sergi Busquets (FC Barcelona) y Cesc Fábregas (Arsenal).
FORWARDS:David Villa (Valencia), Fernando Torres (Liverpool) y Dani Güiza (Fenerbache).

For those who like to keep track of these things we have: 3 Liverpool players called up, 4 from Valencia, 4 from Barcelona and 4 from Real Madrid. Oh the times, they are a changin'....

I think, for me, the biggest shock is Llorente being out, I think he has so much more potential than Guiza and much less baggage.

...I don't like that we no longer have 5 Super Spaniards :'(
Three is not enough.

[melj1213.livejournal.com]

No Llorente or Pablito?! But why?!

And no Sergio = no Sernando action :(

[ema-load.livejournal.com]

i think i'll miss sergio in the nt more than i'll miss him in real madrid:(

[n720.livejournal.com]

same :(

[melj1213.livejournal.com]

I guess because missing a couple of RM matches isn't too bad when there's a whole season to go but when there's not many NT matches, every one counts

And of course the lack of Sernando mean I miss Sergio more.

[m-aaryaa.livejournal.com]

Güizaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Yep, I'm a fan.

[jennx9.livejournal.com]

me too! it would be SO AWESOME if he got called up.
ohgod i want him to get called up so bad.

[motsdesoie.livejournal.com]

Fucking great timing for an international. Never thought a Spain match would annoy me :S

Guiza delivers. I don't see the problem with him :/

[http://users.livejournal.com/_almagitana/]

He delivers, definitely, but I think both him and Llorente can be called up. IDK, there's a reason why Guiza won't be touched by la liga teams with a ten foot pole...

[naranroja.livejournal.com]

Albiol and Xabi (Real Madrid) *cries* Oh, it's hurting so much! Can't believe Madrid is the team having most NT players!!!! AHhhhh!

Güiza!!!! Yeah!!! Play much!!! :D

I'm very curious about Ignacio Monreal!!!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_almagitana/]

RM and Barca are still tied with 4 right now, 5 when Iniesta and Ramos join again.

[tanaaz.livejournal.com]

yay RM has 4 nt players!! I like how RM and Barca are equal now.

[seanachais.livejournal.com]

This is so unreal. Okay, we need more NT Spaniards on our team now, because my mind demands a quota of at least 5. :(

[girlinkage.livejournal.com]

I should be cut up about the "REAL MADRID" next to Alvaro and Xabi, but...NACHO MONREAL! Congratulations Nacho! He's a great kid and he deserves it. He looks like Crouch's Mini Me which always makes me LOL.

Agree on the Guiza thing. I think Llorente's worked hard and deserves to be on the team.

[robbie96.livejournal.com]

Strange time for a "friendly" ..... poor lil'Cescito he's the only player from Arsenal!

I won't even say how I feel about seeing Xabi's name and (RM) in brackets....Ugh!

*runs off crying*

[c0rrine.livejournal.com]

fucking dick piss omg only 3 spaniards. i know that's not even a big deal but little things like this are upsetting me :@ bring on the stupid nonsense like "xabi and arbeloa wouldn't have even been on the nt if it wasn't for getting big with liverpool first" etc omg real madrid have 5 fulltime nt players now wtf WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN OH GOD

ahah i sound like a brat right now but idc
bye

[ipomoea.livejournal.com]

noooooooooo girl i agree with you!

[shadow-sea.livejournal.com]

Oh noooooooo, I'm not liking that we've only got 3 spaniards now.
Time to buy a few more, or for Pacheco to step up!

[ipomoea.livejournal.com]

i knooooow rafa needs to get pacheco called up the way he did with arby and xabi!

[agarina-bloom.livejournal.com]

Well hello Ignacio Monreal:D Finally Spain is playing again.I really think Llorente should be there, he's been doing so well, but maybe he'll get called up later.Hope that Iniesta and Sergio get better soon! No Sernando this time:(

[jada-casi1.livejournal.com]

Dear God my RM internationals are playing on DC this Sunday, and then 2 days after they're off to Macedonia? Whoo!

[vivajenn.livejournal.com]

Wow, I feel sad that Sergiho wasn't called up. I guess you don't appreciate until it's gone...
