England coach Roy Hodgson has hit out at the FA hosting of NFL games at Wembley.
For the third time this year, Wembley will host an American Football game this Sunday when the Jacksonville Jaguars play the Dallas Cowboys.
London is already acutely aware of the fixture - advertising boards are peppered with promotional posters in the city centre and big team banners stretch across the walls down Wembley Way.
But the England manager is unhappy it is taking place because he feels it could ruin the pitch just six days before England play Slovenia in their Euro 2016 qualifier.
"I can't pretend that is something that makes me leap for joy," Hodgson said.
"If I was asked if it was a good thing or not, I would have to say not.
"I don't really think you could expect me to say 'excellent, delighted, well done'.
"The pitch, unfortunately, is not in the best of nick anyway, which we're all a bit unhappy with."
