Before the match England-Continent match, Sindelar was asked about which team he would line-up to face England. Then, Sindelar gave his opinions on some players and also commented about the match. Sindelar
— My opinion on England-Continent?
— In my opinion, it is with the Italians in the first place that we will have to count and we will have to think of Piola first. The team must also understand the great tactician that is Sárosi.
— As far as the Viennese are concerned, there is no doubt that Sesta and Platzer are indisputable. In the background, I will quote Pesser and Mock. As for me… Obviously I regret not having much bright anymore, but I still feel in condition.
— The English are incomparable in their home but three technicians playing in the middle will easily be right, especially if the defense is robust. Sindelar's XI:
Pesser Piola Aston
Zsengellér Dr. Sárosi
Lázár Mock Kupfer
Rava Sesta
Platzer
— Playing in England, the Continent's team will narrowly lose. Playing on the Continent, the England team would lose significantly.
— This is the philosophy - in my opinion - of the meeting.
