the romanian coach has allowed romanian keeper bodgan stelea to miss the friendly match against greece this saturday so he could play in a key match for his club salamanca.


do you guys think this is good because i think he should be with the national team so he can get ready for euro2000.

lobont is going to start for romania.

I don't think it's a big deal. Goaltenders don't really need to play consistently with the NT to prepare. They are a part of the team, but not like one of the other players.

Sure they have to communicate well with the defenders, but he's been on the team long enough to be able to this without much practice. He'll be more game ready by playing in the club match, than in a warm up match for EURO, at least in my opinion.

Yah, I don't think it's a big deal. What IVO said is what I was going to say. Plus Lobont needs more experience anyway.
