The Australian one?

Sanguine Hadn't realised that the game in Croatia on Friday is being played behind closed doors, as punishment for the Croatian pitch being marked with a swastika before a game with Italy in 2016. That Italy game was itself being played with no fans in attendance for previous racist chanting.

Televised though I take it?

Yep, on Sky, they are showing all the Nations League games.
The game has been moved to a tiny 8,000-seater ground in the north of the country partly in the hope of dissuading fans from travelling, it's over 100 miles from Split airport.

Not sure I have ever watched a behind closed doors game live before, will be very odd.

stealthpapes There was a game in the early stages of the Europa league that had an attendance of about 3.
Even with 'behind closed doors', you'll have ca. 100 people in the stadium.

Kitsondinho Went to the U21s 7-0 thrashing of the mighty Andorra tonight. Was impressed with Lookman, Kenny, Nelson and Solanke. ‘17 year old’ Ryan Sessegnon was dreadful. He looks completely shot of confidence and is clearly suffering from playing in the PL. The only thing he did of note in the match was hit the side netting from 16 yards in the 44th min......The hype machine appears to have eaten him.

Yeah he looks like a kid playing with adults in the Premier League, he clearly believed his own hype. Taking on Eric Lichaj is a different world to taking on the likes of Kyle Walker and Kieran Trippier, needs to work way harder.

Rubbish. As per our discussion on Bettinelli, I'm around Fulham a lot, and Sessegnon is considered one of the most humble and hard-working players the club has ever brought through. It's not that he 'believes his own hype', it's that, as Kitsondinho says, his confidence has suffered making that step up. He'll get there - he is an immense talent who, being pretty small in stature, has been playing against bigger and quicker players his whole career, and with success. He'll get there.

No offence but I will judge him on what I can see with my eyes rather than someone who has bought blindly into the hype surrounding him. He is a kid playing in a mans league, it is too big for him. Maybe he needs a season in the Bundesliga or something like that, like Lookman did.

After your brilliant analysis of Bettinelli based on your goalkeeping knowledge (an analysis that involved no discussion of goalkeeping), I think I can safely park your latest rant in the same folder.
As I said, Sessegnon's work rate, effort, desire to improve, and ego are not issues at Fulham. There is no 'believing his own hype', the kid is known for being quiet and studious, almost to a fault.

You have no clue what you are talking about sadly, shame really as you're better than that. Pretty sure you saw my analysis of Bettinelli as 100% accurate when Fulham played Arsenal, Sergio Rico will be playing very soon and Bettinelli will be 2nd or 3rd choice. When that happens I will be expecting an apology.
You have no idea what he is like at Fulham, please try to stop being "ITK", its really silly and like I said you're better than that. Some players just aren't ready and maybe will never be ready. At this current time Sessagnon is nowhere near the level required, not sure how that is open to debate.

The reason everyone thought you were Kes, OMA, is this 'inner arsehole' in you that comes out quite frequently.
I'm not 'trying to be ITK', I watch most of Fulham's games live, and I know a lot of people at the club - and so tried to offer an insight on the player.
I didn't say Sessegnon was playing at the level required, I said that the reason he is struggling is not that he 'believes his own hype'. He is one of the most humble and hard-working players you could wish for. You don't have to like that, but it is simple fact, his conduct his considered exemplary.
As for Bettinelli, but for him Arsenal would have had 7 at the weekend, there was little he could have done about any of the Arsenal goals. I'm still all ears as to the technical goalkeeping expertise you can offer on him. You provided no 'analysis' of him at all.
Grow up and have an adult discussion, instead of throwing your toys around when someone questions your rants.
