Soccer Ashes thread

Bloody Irankunda playing in 14 instead of the 20 I have when I took a punt and ordered the shirt 6 months ago.

A grown man getting a players name on his shirt, you deserve all you get

You probably can’t read too much into it. Some absolute positives and awesome goals but NZ are terrible. The defending was a joke.

 

[tsf]

If we have a full strength we should be doing them 5-0

 

[LFC]

fluke goal!

How’s that thought going for you since posted.
I like your black humour - you surely have some kiwi mixed blood or a poly cornered you in the men’s and gave you the fear of god.

If New Zealand where at full strength it would have been a different story, easy a 4-1 defeat to the Socceroo's. Btu credit were credit is due the Socceroo's won with a few fluke goal. Let just see how the go against USA and Canada.

 

[Midfielder]

Much improved .... starting to like this side a lot...

 

[Alex M]

I don’t think Portsmouth will be pleased to see one of their best players fly to the other side of the world to be on the bench.

I think Portsmouth would be very happy to see him come back uninjured.

People need to chill. Segacic will get his chance. If he started instead of irankunda people would complain.

We saw two great young players out there for once.

Agreed but let’s say 2 promising young players they are not great yet and I hope one day can say so.

I'll admit it's impressive how many times you can be incorrect. Each time I would have given up, but you double down. Commitment to the cause, truly inspiring.

 

[Keeper66]

Why bring Boyle on? 3-1 up with 15 min to go why not try something different?

Yep, should have brought on Botic. Waste of time bringing on Boyle and Hrustic.

 

[Mr Cleansheets]

Hopefully the Sega situation was a situation that matters not.

what a headache for a coach to have...

I reckon you're right, he will get his chance.

 

[DandyCasey]

Metcalfe did well, can't fault the workrate and combative performance but with Segacic and Milanovic on the pine and players probably better suited centre backs at both LWB and RWB

 

[onedaywinners...]

I never want to see Jordy Bos at RWB again.....just nope.

LWB all day everyday.

Let’s bookmark this comment in a couple of months then

Sure if you look at it that way.

 

[Decentric]

But then we saw Hrustic

I don't criticise Popa much, but was appalled by him bringing Hrustic on in NZ.

His teammates at Heracles must do a heck of a lot to cover for his languid efforts in Ball Possession Opposition.
