Aussies abroad 🌍🦘

[Quicky]

No I think he's been knocking on the door of the premier league for years and would be there already if it wasn't for his injuries.

He has stepped straight into this side coming back from injury and is regularly on of the best on ground. He'll get plenty of game time in the premier league, body willing.

I hope you're right. I rate McGree. I just don't trust a promoted Australian to get a fair go.

Yep that's me! I posted that and Alex Chidiac's goal plus Riley McGree's last week and Cristian Volpato's not long before that then during the international break Riley Tanner's for Panama.

 

[Quicky]

Well I think it's fairly obvious now that he's never going to play for Italy, So if he doesn't he might as well say goodbye to international football let alone playing in a World Cup finals personally I don't think he should be selected regardless. In my view a player who has played hard to get like this has disqualified themselves from selection.

I mean that's fair enough. Its post qualification and late in WC prep. You have to consider what message that sends to the squad, sneaking in so late without contributing prior. It's a shame because Volpato is a big talent and would make us better.

Jordy Bos on the bench for Feyenoord, no idea why.

Still coming back and showed signs of rust last game giving away a goal (on top of his signs of brilliance)

 

[grazorblade]

Mcgree looks a better chance than luongo and burgess and the schedule is less intense. Also the league is less physical. You never know who they sign of course

 

[JM47]

Circati should be back next game which is just after Christmas according to their manager.

Marco Tilio on the bench for Rapid Wien in their Austrian Bundesliga game against Blau-Weiss Linz.

Keanu Baccus starts for St. Mirren in the Scottish League Cup grand final against Celtic.

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Max Balard starts for NAC Breda in their Eredivisie game against FC Utrecht.

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Mathew Ryan and Levante's La Liga game against Villarreal postponed due to torrential rainstorms.

 

[mkxx]

I reckon he'll get frozen out (Luongo style) or a reduced role (Burgess style).

Burgess actually started most of the games in EPL just the team got relegated

Burgess played 22 games. I think there are 38 + cup games so probably played half the games. That wouldn't be bad for McGree but it is a reduced role.

Keanu Baccus starts for St. Mirren in the Scottish League Cup grand final against Celtic.

And gets a winners medal as the scum are pumped 3-1.

He played really well too. A very high energy performance.

The Celtic 'trainer' as he calls himself must have forgotten the little plastic tactics board he carries around with him....

He didn't bring it out once.

 

[Mr Cleansheets]

I note Nestory didn't get on the pitch this weekend. Hope he sorts himself out... we need him.

Yeah it's a big shame. He's the Socceroo with the biggest potential. Here's hoping he realises that potential in June 2026

The French and Germans often referred to themselves as " Trainers". I hope big Nancy is at them for a good few seasons more.

 

[socceroosmad]

Assuming Volpato isn't there it is a really interesting question who is our 4th best inside forward if you include metcalf, mcgree and irankunda. I know he plays in the A league, but Vellupilay as the 4th best isn't crazy to me

Vellupilay has a lot of potential which he could have realised by now but for injury

 

[socceroosmad]

I'd love to see Volpato if his hearts actually in it. I think the odds may be longer than that though unfortunately.

We already know his heart's not in the Socceroos' jersey. For himself to play in a World Cup perhaps but no passion no perform
