Is this any different from playing in the World Cup or Nations Cup?
Even in the leagues, team's play Premiership games on Saturday and Champions League matches on Wednesday.

Are you saying that our players cannot handle a competition? Besides, was it not the same for the Cameroonians?

Are you seriously comparing qualifiers with games in a tournament where the team has at least 2 weeks prior to the tourney to play tune up games, have a standing camp and work on fitness?

In champs league, how many times do you hear coaches send out weakened sides or rest several starters in legaue games in anticipation of upcoming Tuesday/Wednesday champions league matches?

Really? :lol:

FYI, Cameroun reportedly had 3 new players who didnt play in the first leg.
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.
