Getting these friendlys at anytime is a good thing. It numbs us to the strength of our opposition for future games. If we hold our own against Chile and Sweden other teams will notice especially since these matches are on FIFA days. From there, we can get better friendlies with stronger teams even if its slight. Playing the large amount of teams in Eastern Europe/Africa will do much more for our football than playing friendlies against 90% of Asian teams will.
TM has always lacked confidence in its ability and playing higher profile friendlies can fix that. When we played Argentina we were playing 11 "purebred footballers" according to one of the game announcers. If we consistently play against the best players of the world, those 11 footballers will just be men with weaknesses that we can discover, exploit, and beat.
