Next International Opponent

After Round 15 there is an International break.

We need an opponent. We will head down the Euro route.

Who should it be?

Remember, CW are still unbeaten in International football. Are we looking for an easy introduction into European football or a real test?

San Marino ranked 199
Luxembourg ranked 157
Estonia ranked 119
Austria ranked 102
Iceland ranked 86
Wales ranked 52

Can't go wrong with the middle ground, so I selected Estonia, although Austria wouldn't be bad either.

Reckon Estonia would be a realistic opponent, Austria are more liekly to choose a whipping against the big boys over us, whereas Estonia would see it as a winnable fixture they can play.

Wales. Quite keen on (a chance at) matching up against Craig Bellamy.

Austria are better than their rankings suggest (but still pretty awful). Ideally, Estonia. Iceland 2nd choice.
