People here are weird, they absolutely love it when a small club beats a big one yet scoff at the possibility of Kazakhstan making it’s Euro debut.

They merely failed to get a higher ranking

The Balkans are perfect in that regard, very safe for women. Cheap (Cheaper compared to W Europe, its still somewhat on the pricey side especially in the capitals) and but the standards of living are lower and much of the public institutional suck.

This reminds me of Muller’s remark on teams like San Marino

Last Friday’s 8-0 drubbing in heavy rain kept Germany top of their 2018 World Cup qualifying group with a perfect record of four wins while San Marino, ranked 199 places below the Germans by Fifa, remain bottom.

When asked about the value of such international miss-matches, Mueller admitted the question was “hard to answer”, adding “romantics say such games have their place”.

Mueller says his “nothing to do with professional football” comment was taken out of context.

“My statement in the interview after the match on Friday related to the question of the sporting value of the game in San Marino in relation to the risk of injury,” Mueller wrote on his Facebook page on Tuesday.

"It was taken out of context by some media, which seems to have given some people the wrong impression, influenced by a sometimes humorous social media post by a former official of the San Marino Football Association.

“I want to clarify here that I replied in the answer respectfully to illuminate both sides of the topic.”

Mueller says he will not shy from speaking his mind.

“I will continue to express my opinion in the future, even if I run the risk of getting a few flies buzzing around my ears,” added the 27-year-old.

The matter could be put to bed over a beer.

Gasperoni has apologised for poking fun at Germans in his rant and wants to meet Mueller when San Marino play the return qualifier in Nuremberg next June.

“I am sure everything will be settled with a hand shake and when we are in Germany, we could go for a beer together,” added Gasperoni.
