Might be a stupid question, but for everyone staying behind, it's business as usual right? No time off. So they'll be going into training everyday etc...?

Some, like Mo, will be over there as pundits for tv stations.

Club is also doing a training camp in Dubai for those not going, so I imagine plenty will be making the trip from Dubai to Qatar to be at games.

Think there is some time off as well.

Doubt there will be a regular day to day at Kirkby going on for some of the five to six week period for the first team squad.

Fantastic news!! My hopes for the world cup now are:

Semi finalists (because 3rd and 4th teams will also have to play their 'final'): Spain, Belgium, Argentina and Portugal.

That will mean the following City players will be out of the Carabao fixture: Laporte, Dias, Silva, Rodri, Cancelo, Foden, Grealish, Alvarez and De Bruyne.

Maybe I will be paying close attention to the world cup after all!

I reckon of the mere 7 players we have going to the World Cup - Alisson, Trent, Konate, VVD, Fabinho, Hendo and Nunez - probably only Alisson, Virg and maybe Nunez are starters. 3 at the most. The rest all fringe players.

Left out of Spain squad. Great for us. But also insane, even though he's been below his best for a few weeks,

It's genuinely mind-boggling to the point that there must be some sort of friction between the two. Not fussed either way.

Damn hope I haven’t cursed him

[Angryred]

I bet he loves Custard Creams

Think he might favour the delicious Pastel de tarts (Portuguese custard tarts)!

Absolutely delicious!

They brought him up to stand up for himself and to help people being attacked by wasps.

Darwin’s parents, on the other hand! They’d want to take a good long look at themselves!

Says a hell of a lot about his character and probably those of his parents/whoever brought him up.
