I'm.guttered about mcgree because I was set to see him play on boxing day. If it's a long term injury I think he needs to go to another league it's not working for him here

For once I actually thought we have a new wonderkid when I saw how well he was playing for Watford. Now he might get dropped from the starting 11 if Cristian Volpato comes along.
Truly sad that all our Socceroos keep getting our hopes up then killing us.

Well i dont know if he is a wonderkid, but i do think he is tracking better than leckie and probably does player regularly for a mid table team in the big 5 for a few years when he peaks. His speed, shot power and defense in 1v1 situations is elite, but you need a few other areas to be elite to make it at the top

The good thing is he's in a league with many matches. If it were 34 league games and a cup I'd be concerned. He's in the squad and gets on and has some starts as well. Form dips are inevitable.

Plenty of football over the next two weeks.

I think Irankunda has the potential and ranks highly in key attacking metrics compared to other forwards, but discipline is still very much a problem for him and unless he sorts that out I doubt he'll be able to make it at the top unfortunately.

His discipline isnt perfect but isnt resulting in red cards. His ability to combine with team mates still has a long way to go.

That's rotten luck. I've got a jinx that I don't get to see the players I want. Never saw Kruse in Hannover due to injuries.

Germany friendly I was excited to see our Asian cup defence, Cahill and Luongo only to be served Wilkinson and De Vere, McKay and Troisi. Turned out to be a blessing as they had a top game.

Wilko never let anyone down. Should've played more for Oz.

The form defender for the first decade of the A-League - but had to go to the K League to get picked - then one of the best when he returned to the A-League. Spiranovic was always over-rated because of the big city mafia of the Australian football mafia at the time. Nuremburg quickly figured him out and gave more time to Megsy.

I mean Cristian Volpato got rejected by two A-League clubs for his shit attitude but made it in the Serie A.

True, and on Sofascore his average is still pretty high.

Mate, that's just incorrect. He was rejected because they rated others better than him at the time. He was 14/15 at the time mind you, so as we know, may not have taken his football as seriously before he moved over to Tony Basha's academy. BTW, I think he grew a foot in his first year over in Italy, so that with his technical ability was going to help dramatically
