HULL City's Richard Garcia has been called up by Australia for their upcoming friendlies against Switzerland and Poland.

The Socceroos take on Switzerland on September 3 and Poland on September 7, before a clash with Paraguay at the Sydney Football Stadium on October 9.

The call-up is Garcia's first under new Aussie coach Holger Osieck after he was named in the 20-man squad having been involved at the World Cup in South Africa under Pim Verbeek.

The Tigers will take on Cardiff in Wales on September 11, meaning the Aussie is unlikely to be involved because of the effects of travelling.

    “Thank god Garcia is out, but to replace him with Fagan? jeez it's a shame he can't be on duty somewhere too, he's a bloody joke too, another one who thinks he's better then he is. How many times have you seen Fagan beaten and then he fouls them to 'get his own back' costing a free kick. It's hard to see where goals are gonna come from.”

    “Poor lad. Almost feel sorry for him now.

    Still. You lot call me a lot worse and I'm not on a £1m either.

    Any chance he can go to Oz on a £10 ticket ? Why dont they play RoI every week.?”

    “Richard, @ Work

    Unfortunately Wales don't have a midweek international the week before Cardiff play us, and even more unfortunately, Slovenia do and are away to Serbia.”

    “Its ok as Fagan will be fit by then. The Tigers will need Fagan FIT to wind up Bellamy. Just like he did last season in the Man City home game. lol. Also Chopra looks like being out for 6 weeks as well. Plus Bellamy normally comes back from an international break injured anyways. Yes, A good time to go to cardiff me thinks. lol.”
