Have a good feeling they can get a result here, will be interesting to see how Johann does in a more central position

  • Go on my son(s)!
  • That's a proper Icelandic team, every one a "son" or "sson"!

    Due to the naming system of Icelanders it'll always be the case with male teams. Fathers' name followed by son. One notable difference was Heiðar Helguson who chose to be named after his mother

    No place for Roger Johnson
  • That lineup was innaccurate...Johann to play on the right wing as per Charlton role!
  • Johann put a nice cutback across goal on a plate for the striker, should be 1-0 up!

    With most countries though, there are always people who qualify due to having an Irish granny or similar...

  • No amount of Irish grans are gonna get you into the Iceland team
  • Any other decent players in the Icelandic team that JBG could persuade to come to Charlton?

    Must admit, have always liked Bjarnason - believe he could be a good player for us - he played for Pescara in Italy who sold him for 1m euros - surely thats within our budget?

    I've been many times. Great country, very friendly people. Never far from some stunning natural landscapes. Reykjavik nightlife is also legendary. A good time to go is during the Iceland Airwaves festival in November, I went out for a festival in July and am tempted to go to Airwaves.

    Was never a red in my opinion.
  • So Indi will be banned for the next game

    Indi banned....
  • He'll be upset about that red card. Let his teammates down.

    Needs to show some Indi penance now.
