Why are they playing international games now when there isn’t an international break? And what are you going to learn playing the likes of Qatar! |  | |  |

I think the coaching team just want to have a look at a broader spectrum of players who may not be/have been involved in the underage international squads. I'm surprised that so many of the senior players are taking part in the training camp, they have had a long season. |  | |  |

They are probably getting paid to provide other teams with World Cup warm-ups. |  | |  |

What's "learn" got to do with it? You don't play against Qatar to learn, you do it because they've shoved a wad of cash into your bank account |  | |  |

Also they’re in the World Cup and probably want a European opponent in the friendlies as their one chance of getting through is to beat Bosnia in what might be the weakest group in the history of the competition. |  | |  |
