2026 World Cup Squad

I feel like Robertson has been given the allegiance test like Segecic, Triantis to see if his willing to be play for us under the coaches eyes, luckely Peru haven’t qualified otherwise he could easily gone too.

Anyway he should gotten more time for the national team regardless.
Surely he's passed the test now that he's travelled a lot and turned up. Perhaps revenge for the silly games played earlier? Wasn't it sunoky getting passports etc sorted? A convenient excuse perhaps.
 
Starting lineup

-------------------------Ryan
-----Souttar------Circati------Burgess
Italiano----Irvine------Metcalfe-----Bos
-----------Mabil-----------------Hrustic
----------------------Toure
I wouldn't complain but that midfield gets trampled. Maybe Devlin to soften them up? Mabil and Hrustic have unfinished business but need to deliver big time if given the chance.
 
Leckie is going to start in midfield I think. I'd actually forgo a left inside forward and stack the midfield with Devlin, Irvine and Leckie and then have Bos roam and Leckie is fine going a bit forward too.
 
People are saying this squad sucks, but who else would change it heaps? Our talent pool is what is not great.

Mcgree was injured so what can we do....

Robertson...maybe....but who else we have?
Antonio Arena, Max Balard, Harrison Devenish-Meares, Alex Robertson, Zac Sapsford, Ante Šuto? Did I miss any?
 
Exactly, none of the journos will have the spine to really press popa on these decisions, especially after he throws out one of his generic responses. Would love for one of them to just ask "What is it about Robertson you despise so much?.... What does Borello have over you? Incriminating photos? What is it?"
Imagine if he has dick pics or some shit. Surely that’s happened somewhere around the world lol.

its our pre match warm uo to freak out, say our squad sucks, lament about who is missing and to call for the sacking of the coach

If u dont warm up u pull a muscle mate
 
Now with Robbo out of the World Cup what do we think he does? Sticks with us and tries again next time (or comes in if we get another injury) or switches to Peru for the next Copa/WC?

Any thoughts on any other specific dual international prospects too?

Well here's hoping he's tied down for 3 years and we just take him to the Asian Cup. Given it's in season he might turn it down.
 
With this squad Popovic likely won't be around past June. He looks like the anti-Ange. Ange turned up in 2014 and forward you needed to defend. It looks like Popovic will be all defence and forget to attack. Likely to end up on the same number of points.
3 draws is an achievement according to some pundits.
 
You only get a three year cooling off period after a friendly game if you've played a competitive game at some other point, and Robertson hasn't as far as I'm aware.
competitive game locks you in permanently I believe

there is a thread with the person who wrote the rules if you want to ask James :)
