No easy games in our group. Ridiculous draw for us. Oh well. Let's hope we better our defense by then.
Go Armenia!

Lets hopewe have a coach by then

Two friendlies with France as well. Plus the upcoming two with Germany & Russia.

We need to schedule some cupcake friendlies. Can we fly out and face Jamaica and Canada to boost some morale.

[Denitron]

Why did they expand it to 24 teams? So many sh*t teams in it now

Is Heno playing the Russia friendly?

[pezt]

Why does Greece always get such a ridiculiously easy group? smh

[SAKOTXA]

The good thing is 3rd place teams qualify for the playoffs now Qrich.

I was thinking the same thing. Always hated the way they play also, their 2004 run was everything that describes anti-football. Defending with 10 men, then scoring in the last 10 minutes and winning 1-0. I think 60% of their goals that year came from set pieces.

So far, the invites (no coach but invites being sent!) are:

Yura Movsisyan
Araz Osibiliz
Artak Yedigaryan
Levon Hayrapetyan
Artak Dashyan

Heno will most likely get the invite. I'm hoping Artyom Khachaturov gets the call-up and gets the start. Glad Dashyan is getting a second go in case Pizzelli is out of form.

Italians do the same exact thing every single big tournament.

Why does England always get the easiest groups? It seems they always have San Marino in their qualifying group. Is it geographical reasons or just luck?

Who cares. England would go through even if they had a tough group.

Just luck, random draw. They just get the easiest teams of each pot.

I have a really bad feeling about that Germany Gibraltar game. Over or under on the Germany winning 14-0?

[alenleomessi]

damn forgot the draw is today..
we got spain plus we have some chance for 3rd place.. awesome
delboy vs babunski

[knickballer]

Damn Group I is insane. Very unfair when you see how easy of a group Greece got.

Not expecting to qualify but playing against Serbia should be fun.

[b1imtf]

Damn, tough group for Portugal. Let's hope for some good football!
