Anderson will have the summer off and joins Manuel Lanzini and Javier Hernandez who have also been left out of Argentian and Mexico national squads this summer.
In the case of Hernandez, it is so he can be present for the birth of his child.
Not good for our hopes of keeping him, or is it ?
Perhaps he will be less desirable to other clubs because he is not in the International team certainly with the amount we would want to receive for his transfer ?
On the flip side perhaps it is because he hasn’t been playing European football why he hasn’t been selected in which case he may be less happy with another season of the same ?
Hopefully whatever the outcome he will be well rested and fit for the start of the new season.
Fantastic news. All our key players getting a proper break this summer. Shame Declan isn’t but he’s young.
Another message to Anderson, 1 in 4 games isn’t enough, pull your socks up next season. Hopefully he’ll be more settled now and can show what he’s got.
