Circulate a sinister list.
43 names were thrown into the room, without a word, without justification, two days before the actual publication. The reason and especially the timing is not very clear to many.
Some are happy, after all, they appear in ÖFB’s lineup for the first time, while others are upset that they are not even mentioned on this list. Others, on the other hand, can be removed from the list again because they are not even allowed to travel to the team.
Squad confusion ahead of World Cup qualifying matches in Scotland and at home against the Faroe Islands and Denmark has really hit home, the provisional Austrian squad and early release may well be questioned. Why should the question be allowed: was it necessary, Mr. Foda?
The reasons for moving ahead on Wednesday with a preliminary selection of players from the ÖFB team turned out to be less conclusive. As a result, many more construction sites have been opened, waiting for developments and postponing the deadline would have been more advisable.
Of course, it should be mentioned that the absence of the German legionnaires due to Corona’s quarantine measures in the away match in Glasgow is an unusual situation and requires a talent for improvisation. Thinking outside the box is a question of which players, in addition to the major international leagues, have what it takes for the national team. That certainly can’t hurt.
So on Friday, Franco Foda wants to define the final squad and comment on it publicly during a press conference. Why don’t I like that right away? Marko Arnautovic was not on the list from the beginning due to the potentially difficult journey from China. Since Wednesday, Adrian Grbic has also declined for the away game in Scotland, as players in the French leagues are not allowed to travel internationally outside the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA) in general. Therefore subsequent nominations are not completely ruled out due to further cancellations, for the Glasgow appearance only one nominal striker would currently be available with Ercan Kara, guard Marco Grüll (Ried) or Christoph Monschein (Austria) can be promoted..
“So why raise hopes or destroy dreams when he announces the final lineup two days later anyway?”
Other players have likely already done their best to pave their way to ÖFB honors. However, it is very possible that one or the other will no longer be “necessary” on Friday if the number of summoned is reduced. So why raise hopes or destroy dreams when two days later the final lineup is announced anyway?
To cite specific examples, let’s take Rapid players Ercan Kara and Yusuf Demir, who have even expressed their willingness to play for Austria and not Turkey. In the event of a cancellation this could well lead to a defiant reaction, so currently you might definitely need a forward like Kara and it is never a mistake to make the ÖFB squad acceptable to a 17-year-old like Demir al beginning. stage, especially in this exceptional situation.
With words or explanations, even if only in writing, part of the explosive could have been deactivated. For example, Salzburg goalkeeper Cican Stankovic has earned a more respectful approach than the unsuspecting search for his name in an eternally long list, which has also expanded to include many new names.

The fact that the 28-year-old reacted angrily and referred to almost two and a half years in a row in the ÖFB lineup can be understood, not to mention performances, Champions and Europa League appearances and number 1 in the number. 1 in Austria for more details. One might think, without justification, without referring to why Daniel Bachmann (Watford), Heinz Lindner (Basel), Pavao Pervan (Wolfsburg), Alexander Schlager (LASK) and Jörg Siebenhandl (Sturm Graz) suddenly denied priority to five goalkeepers. . It occurs and currently only equals sixth and seventh place with Rapid goalkeeper Richard Strebinger, who is also on guard. Because it remains open whether it is just the sports valuation or whether Stankovic has already expressed his displeasure after this announcement or another Foda just fits the concept better. Speculations that would have been nipped in the bud with a clean approach.
All those, mainly the local Bundesliga footballers, who have their chance against Scotland, can prevail for other tasks. Under normal circumstances that would have been unthinkable in the presence of the German legionaries, especially at the World Cup. A different perspective can be fruitful in many ways.
Friday is eagerly awaited when Foda will answer questions from the public. Because the team leader needs an explanation: why, why, why. This will also be of interest to one or the other of those affected, since apparently not all were informed in advance about their role in the ÖFB team.
