Surprised there have been no Circati or Herrington rumours recently. Pretty much dried up.

Grosso still wanting Volpato at Fiorentina

I just want him to leave Watford, can't see him succeeding in that system. Sporting is a good level for Irankunda and hopefully Sporting's history of producing young talent and progressing them will help him. Also, gets a chance to play top competition in the UCL, which is also important.

We had five Socceroos in the big five leagues last season. Ryan, Circati, Volpato, Metcalfe and Irvine. We currently have four right now (Circati, Volpato, Okon-Engstler and Beach). A few non-debuted Socceroos also in and around top 5 league teams and youth teams. I expect Herrington to add to...

Is it just me or does this look like AI? That barely looks like Beach 😂😂

Patrick Beach to Troyes in Ligue 1 is official!

Younis starts

That's two more Socceroos at top 5 league clubs. Patrick Beach and Paul Okon-Engstler. The massive movement of young players is so exciting, especially just being able to be excited for the AA match-days each week, its means a lot more now than it has for many years. Really cool to see a lot of...

I read other reports, they expect until the end of the calendar year.

Per Feyenoord, "**Medical update Jordan Bos** Jordan Bos suffered a knee injury in the last World Cup match with his national team. Bos underwent surgery this morning, and the procedure went well. The expectation is that he will be unavailable for multiple months. We’re with you, Jordan! ❤️...

Massive. If he can break into the Club Brugge team then he'll be in contention for the Roos pretty quickly. I predict he'll start to get minutes at the end of this season but he won't really see him fully break in until next season. 2028 Socceroo

He's not. Him and Toure are still in Adelaide as recently as today.

Official

Suspect Jordan Bos will move to a bigger club either in the January window or next off-season. Feyenoord are currently looking for a temporary replacement and depending on the severity of injury, Bos may not get enough game-time before the Jan window to make a move. Probably best for him to...

Bos will be at the Asian Cup unless he gets injured again but for this injury he should be back well before.

Another top 5 league player. Good shit!

Thank fuck... the Asian Cup is back on :love::love:

He's a great workhorse and had a good World Cup but he is still technically not at the level we want our midfield to be in 4 years. Aiden O'Neill was never going to be the one to progress Australian football or play for a big club.

William Cvek Ferdinand (2011) is trialing for La Liga's Celta Vigo's youth team. After leaving Barcelona due to personal reasons earlier this year, I wanted to find out where he had gone. Finally, found a source saying he is still trialing in Spain. Celta Vigo is a more realistic youth to...

Great shouts!

Like you said, it's fun and a source of optimism to predict. Not to mention, I think a lot us here had Circati, Irankunda, Bos, Volpato all in our 2026 World Cup squads in 2022/23. But we also had, Triantis, Nieuwenhof, Robertson, Kuol and Tilio etc. I think in early 2023 I started putting Okon...

Yeah, its been mentioned here before but I would not be surprised to see Volpato turn down an Asian Cup to focus on his club football. This is just conjecture, but it wouldn't go down well with fans, 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Might be a different story, if he's solidified himself at...

He said he's been trying to get a loan move for a while out of Sassuolo but they won't let him.

Well, for the purpose of this topic, I predict we will.

Any predictions for our 2030 World Cup squad or starting XI? ---------------------------Beach-------------------------- Overy-------Circati---------Herrington--------Bos --------Robertson--------Okon-Engstler-------- --------------------------McGree---------------------------...

Fiorentina are still after Volpato. I definitely think he should continue trying to leave Sassuolo.

Lol I doubt he'd accept that. Our only hope is he isn't good enough for the England squad but that will probably be years from now.

Not sure if he's a bolter, but it has to be Alex Robertson, I suspect he'll have one of the best seasons of all AA. A good season from him could catapult him into the Premier League, pretty fast.

I think this upcoming European season, will be one of the most exciting AA seasons we've had for a while. So many players to follow and many playing at bigger clubs and at higher levels.

Paul Okon-Engstler is also rumoured to FC Groningen

One of the biggest up and coming talents out of England. Australian born but may never play for us. Though, the "potential" talents we could have at the next World Cup is pretty surreal.

Locked in till the Asian Cup. As long as we progress our style of play in the windows later this year, I don't mind it.

After a half-season starting in the Championship, Robertson needs to start for us at the 2027 Asian Cup.

It's so crazy how fast it can happen, our best attacker really coming into his own and then suddenly he goes down injured, possible ACL, may miss the Champions League, Eredivisie season, his next big club move and the Asian Cup. Also, treatment for an ACL isn't linear, he may never fully recover...

The Asian Cup and the World Cup are two completely different tournaments. Performing well at the Asian Cup is an important rehearsal for the World Cup. Ultimately, we can perform like we did this World Cup and play in the exact system with the same selections and probably make the Asian Cup...

Just based off Milligans comments alone. I'd be willing to listen to why Milligan should be coach. I want an open-minded coach who isn't stubborn and is forcing a system that doesn't suit our players. It should be the system to fit our players not the players trying to fit into the coaches...

With the players we had, we underperformed this WC, but within Popa's system it's as good as it gets.

Is there a way to get rid of Popa? Or is he locked in. No point being invested till he leaves. Football Australia are absolute idiots for extending his contract before the World Cup. Like we could've got grouped.

"I don't regret any decision I make" If that's not a coaching red flag, I don't know what is. Bye Popa 👋

I can't be the only one here who was kind of clocked out, of course I wanted us to win but after terrible selections, and our ineffective playing style, Bos goes down and incorrect coaching decisions over and over again, I didn't feel much at the final whistle. Looking ahead, remove Popa and...

Get him out, we don't need him

NoMates is a prophet, he was right all along. 👑

Can we waive Popa's contract? We don't need him dragging this team down anymore.

I don't think we deserve to go through to the round of 16. That was a shocking performance and we haven't looked great most of this World Cup.

Even if we win, Popa needs to go soon. What a terrible performance.

Irvine is so bad its ridiculous

Okon-Engstler MOTM

Popa just makes wrong decision after wrong decision. This game was obviously going to extra time, you need to push out these starters as long as they possibly can play. Irankunda and Volpato should've played 80-90 minutes minimum, especially when they're our only outlets.

Trewin has been shit

No Irankunda, no Bos, no Volpato... this lineup has no goals in it, besides a shithouse. I would've put Irankunda wide and taken off Metcalfe.

Even if he doesn't play again this tournament or we lose this match I just hope that isn't his ACL. He won't play the Asian Cup, may lose his big move and may never be the same player ever again. Like it's that fucked

That could be Bos's ACL. That is fucked if it is. Could never be the same player again

Fuck this dirty fucking ref

Bos is out

We can score, but we need Irankunda on the right. He is completely null and void as the 9. It's ridiculous

Behich is useless

Oh fuck me, this shit is painful to watch.

This has been terrible. Egypt already time wasting.

Been a dreadful game.

The Metcalfe and Behich side is so ineffective. I'd consider putting Bos back on the left, looks a lot more freedom on that side.

I'd rather Metcalfe play as the 9 and put Irankunda out wide.

This is so frustrating, Irankunda is wasting away as the 9.

O'Neill has one of the worst shots of the ball I've ever seen. That guy is not a scorer

He really has been poor. Irvine off, Metcalfe as CM and Toure on, Irankunda on wing

:/

Fuck

Irankunda and Volpato have swapped temporarily it seems

So close, what we like to see

Okay I'm finally awake 😅

Interesting, I'm not nervous. I was slightly nervous for the Turkey game because it's the first game but it's the most chill I've been for the Roos ever. Confident in this team.

I think Circati has been equal if not better than Souttar

Bos and Irankunda will score against Egypt!
