That’s FM legend Rooney Bardghji to you.
Join Syria then
I thought he was from Iraq
Play for America 🇺🇸 🦅🔥❤️
Be one of the best players in your position regardless of age. He may be the best 17 year old Swedish midfielder but that doesn’t mean he can compete with 25 year olds
It’s Sweden’s NT, not England’s.
Our squad kind of sucks and we’re already out of contention
he is…
Not new to see this kind of arrogance in Fck players
Bro will be playing in the german third division in 5 years with this attitude lol
He’s not being picked because our gaffer is an absolute joke and a failure. He’s got a long history of doing the absolutely worst thing at every possible turn, hopefully he will (FINALLY!) be gone soon.
Janne should have been in a retirement home in Uppsala 3 years ago but here we are lol.
Yeah, it’s bizarre how long he’s managed to stick around. Looks like he’s finally going away now though, although much too late. Maybe we can finally go back to dunking on Denmark, this current state of affairs is both unnatural and unholy.
While I agree that it is the right time to move forward and let Janne go, surely getting to the quarterfinals of a world cup buys you a lot of confidence. When do you think will be the next time a Swedish NT manages to do that? I doubt that it will be within the next 20 years myself.
the swedish media hates Janne so they desperately drag these answers out of players. This is nothing to read into at all
Not only the media. He should’ve been fired once he missed his first major tournament. Now it’s a missed World Cup, a missed Euros and relegation to Nations League C division. On top of that he’s also an asshole most of the time. The hate is well earned.
Not to jolly engage in Manager bashing but maybe they have their reasons? Some dude said a lot of the younger guys who have parents from different nationalities have given up waiting to play for their homeland bcz this dude kinda just sticks to the same old players. The boys give up on being called and accept the call up for a different country. If I was Swedish I would be fuming at Janne over this lol. I mean, it happened in Brazil like once with Diego Costa choosing Spain and it became a national crisis lol.
2 people have and one of them is very average. But I disagree nonetheless. Players shouldn’t be picked just to be locked in.
Just for some context for fans not following Swedish football and media.
There has been a lot of criticism against Jane the last couple of years from a lot of different persons regarding the old squad he uses.
This isn’t the first time young talents don’t get a chance. Many that have dual passports have chosen other countries teams to play for
The critique against Janne has made it sound very unique, but it seems to be happening with most Swedish managers at the later half of their run with the national team. They have their favorites and youngsters are usually let into the team very carefully.
Usually it goes like this:
A new manager is appointed and gets praise for giving new players and youngsters a chance. Later on, the manager has found his core group. If he is successful, he will get praise, but when the results start to dwindle, people will start to ask for new players/youngsters to get chance. The manager has his group though and is trusting that his group will turn it around and if he adds new players to the group, it’s done very carefully.
If the turnaround doesn’t happen and he gets fired, a new manager is appointed. The new manager gets praise for giving new players and youngsters a chance and so on…
many of the dual passports have chosen other countries to play for
That’s when you get a new coach for sure
This is exactly what happened with the danish team under Morten Olsen. Huge talent like Fischer and Andreas Christensen never got picked.
I don’t miss that man.
Andreas Christensen is too young to be even considered for Olsen…he started playing senior football in autumn 2015. Same time Olsen had his final qualification matches
MO did include Christian Eriksen pretty early in his career but I guess his talent was undeniable. Then of course used him to sit deep and play a million lateral passes.
Great Sweden’s got another Zlatan on their hands with a God complex
I’m not a fan of the ‘confidence’ but the guy probably deserves a call up.
What scoring 1 goal in the ucl does to a mf
Hes also their top scorer this season + scored the goal that actually took them to CL
“What more can a 17 year old do to get called up?”
Not have Janne as manager.
Or if you do, be like 35 and be injured 80% of the year in a italian low tier team
Haters say cocky and entitled. I would say self-belief.
Genuinely have never heard of him, is he actually good enough to play for Sweden at 17 (now 18)?
Yes. The Swedish national team is comically bad.
