2026 World Cup Squad

Even though I think Nish did well in previous games out of him and Boyle….can see a case for Boyle.

Feel sorry for the bloke

And a huge congrats to the other debutants Jordan Bos, Cameron Burgess, Allesandro Circati, Jason Geria, Lucas Herrington, Nestory Irankunda, Jacob Italiano, Paul Izzo, Connor Metcalfe, Aiden O'Neill, Paul Okon-Engstler (a name I know), Mohamed Toure, Kai Trewin, Nishan Velupillay. They must be feeling on top of the world.

If McGree hadn't gotten injured then he's in over Leckie. Volpato was probably always coming.

I'd still have taken Goodwin over Leckie at present. Also Robertson in for Geria.

Agree that Craig Goodwin should have made the final Socceroos playing list ahead of Leckie in the absence of the injured Riley McGree and Alex Robertson would have been a good inclusion to bolster our midfield stocks heading into the World Cup.

It's pretty hard being a midfielder under Popovic. He only has spots for 2 at a time and they need to be defensive ones.

Alex Robertson is a versatile midfielder who can also play in the defensive midfield position and be another midfield anchor option along with Kai Trewin though, and personally I would have included him ahead of Aiden O'Neill who's only just returned from injury and might be a risk heading into our World Cup campaign with regards to his fitness.

Think about how old Herrington was when we were struggling during the covid qualifiers.

There would've been some tough conversations there. Boyle will be devastated.

Your reply with Degenek had me shocked thinking him and Rowles.

I opened the FA article and they didn't state it but saw names like Souttar and Devlin and froze that they might be out.

Frantically searched for Devlin's name. Leckie gets in with the midfield aspect other it is Boyle.

Boyle over Leckie would have been better actually.
