[Dylza_94]

Nah more about getting some of Ace's workload of him, unless he wants to keep it haha.

Ok, done I'm not a regular follower of this NT, so all help is appreciate

What's there to change Dylan?

To be honest my last update was on last summer, maybe the coach made some changes, BTW now Dylza can make all changes he needs.

Nah more about getting some of Ace's workload of him, unless he wants to keep it haha.

thanks To be honest NTs are a lot, and I'm always happy to get some help

Remove Fevang - He has only got called up once in his carrer.

U r the only one who can edit this thread, so...

Looks good to me, at least better than the first post atm . I'll put it in.

Yeah sorry about that, fixing it all up now.

[Dylza_94]

There, updated.
Bit disappointed a few more players for it haven't been created, but ah well.

[choccy]

The squad in march vs Slovakia:

Rune Almenning Jarstein - Rosenborg
Jon Knudsen - Stabæk

Daniel Braaten - Toulouse
John Carew - Aston Villa
Christian Grindheim - Heerenveen
Brede Hangeland - Fulham
Henning Hauger - Stabæk
Erik Huseklepp - Brann
Tom Høgli - Tromsø
Morten Gamst Pedersen - Blackburn
Bjørn Helge Riise - Fulham
John Arne Riise - Roma
Espen Ruud - Odense
Per Ciljan Skjelbred - Rosenborg
Alexander Tettey - Rennes
Kjetil Wæhler - Aalborg
Morten Moldskred - Rosenborg
Vadim Demidov - Rosenborg
Knut Olav Rindarøy - Molde

Players in bold are pretty much certainties in the squad if fit. Rindarøy and Demidov will probably be included in most squads too, but it's early days in their NT career yet. I'd probably get rid of Solli from the OP, unless he ups his game considerably this season that is.

[Paddy]

Someone make Haestad!

[choccy]

Someone make Haestad!

I'll give it a go, but would prefer to wait a bit as the season just started here in Norway. Have to see if he maintains his bright start to the season. He seems to be back to his good old self though, his spell in England really shattered his confidence (along with difficulties with injuries I have to add)

[KeyserSoze]

This squad definitely needs an update.
Players like Knut Olav Rindarøy, Vadim Demidov and Mohammed Abdellaoue (great start of the season for Hannover 96 for him) have now became regulars for Norway.

[PIPA23]
