Did see that but to be fair a keeper isnt going to be expending the energy an outfield player is
Plus what what I gather he looked absolutely fucked when came out for the 2nd half

All that aside if its good enough for one...

It's not the same though is it? We wanted Kasim to arrive late for international duty to play for his club; whereas Carroll had completed his international duty hadn't he? So what FIFA were "protecting" was the idea that players should be available for a set period before and during a block of internationals, they don't give a monkeys whether they then turn up knackered for club duty. Although overruling the Iraqi FA was a load of bollocks
