Ability to stop player going on international duty when you have a Champions League final


Recommended Posts

In my 3rd season with Stade Rennais in France, and my first season in the Champions League, I've managed to get to the Champions League final. I had thought to myself it would be good if we could finish 3rd in the group stage, and then have a good Europa League run. I beat Roma in the playoffs to get into the group stage with player X scoring a penalty away and a hat trick at home. I then managed to beat Real Madrid away to come top of the group, luckily got past Dynamo Kiev, Lyon and Man U (thanks to Jonny Evans and Phil Jones scoring own goals!) and I now find myself in the final against Porto. With my main, top wage earning striker injured, I definitely need player X to step up big for me in the final. Unfortunately, he's been called up by the French Under 21 team to play in the Toulon Festival tournament. I mean, come on. Really? Truth is I absolutely love watching that tournament on Eurosport at the beginning of every summer, but would a player really miss a European Champions League final to go and play there? I think not. What to do? Play a youngster and keep the same system or play another defender/defensive midfielder to man mark their best player?
