World Cup 2026 Australia thread

Imagine a better coach and a midfield with Yazbek, Balard and Robertson. We've got to get the better ball players in.

It's also time to expose Archie Goodwin.
 
Luongo has been a great footballer but just consider his age and condition. He won't be coming back sadly.

Luongo is a big what if for me this tournament. If he'd not been injured and was playing for Millwall the whole season, he could have changed our team. But I suspect he would've suffered from a case of the 'Robertsons' under Popovic.
 
Popovic sought something the enable a win and it worked against Turkey. While the USA was a different opponent why not revert to the most successful version against Egypt?

They left so much space behind. The game was a lot more conventional and out best combinations would've created chances.
 
While not scoring in open play since Turkey is bothersome. A bit of perspective. The USA game was a write off, we didn't need to score against Paraguay and had some chances while knockout football is also cautious. The Egypt game is the most frustrating as it was the most open.
 
Seeigg the Egypt flag ahead of ours on the grid will be forever haunting. That's what most pre tournament predictions looked like and the result of many Sims.
 
Well life moves on we have friendlies with Brazil then the road to the Asian cup

It'll be good to see some of the lads getting moves from the world cup
 
I felt 20 years of penalties fortune was just going to come to an end. How I'd like to try it again with different takers and Beach.
 
I know it's about sportsmanship and goodwill but Toure and Yengi posing with Salah for photos soon after the game looking gleefully just shits me.

No doubt they're passionate about winning but just so soon after isn't the winning and focus mentality the best have.
