I'm all for us getting anyone who's eligible and good enough in the team - power to Hudson on his search.
However, it does make me think we have a bit of a pub team vibe in the AWs. I can imagine Hudson desperately sending out text messages the night before a World Cup qualifier saying "we've only got 10 players. anyone have any mates who might be keen? preferably a centre mid. txt me asap"
Meh, really is the reality of international football now. Costa playing for Spain, Brazilian contingent at Qatar etc.
Don't think we have the luxury of being picky.
