Shahanga Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Pretty nervous now. If we are good enough we'll go through, the stage is set for that, but as we've seen a lack of goal scoring ability is making it very difficult. If the only the bloody Kiwis had held firm in 1901, then we'd have Chris Wood up front and "all our problems would be solved".

mus-28 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 FFS, we dominated the midfield in Honduras and Ange decides we need to bring Milligan and Rogic. Luongo is much neater on the ball than Milligan and doesn't blast the ball into the stands whenever it comes to him outside the box and Irvine has the energy to get up and down for 90 minutes and has a defensive game unlike Rogic. Worries me when we make unnecessary changes particularly in the midfield where we finally looked relatively well balanced in the away leg.

mattyh001 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Cagey, agro first half that's happened thousands of times before in these types of games Rogic has been poor, Leckie (and Behich to an extent) has been ineffective, Cahill's had nothing to do. Mooys forward passing has been great, wish I could say the same for his set pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackout Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm most happy about Aaron Mooy getting a chance to play at a big international stage after missing the Asian Cup. Genuinely stoked for him. Also the rest of the country... but mostly Mooy, our beautiful, bald man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mus-28 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Ange needs to find a midfield that works and stick to it if we're going to be competetive in Russia, personally think Jedinak - Mooy - Luongo - Irvine is our best bet with Irvine getting forward to support Juric/Cahill. Only other position that isn't locked in is RCB, on current form I'd like to see Rhys Williams given a crack if he can stay injury free. Suits Anges style perfectly and is comfortable carrying the ball out of defence, which Bailey Wright isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shahanga Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 I’ll be seriously pissed off if that Kent Ange doesn’t go on and take us to Russia. After all his talk about “it’s not about qualifying, it’s about doing something when you get there”. Back it up son. Ignore the mosquitos.

My take is he will announce his intentions after the draw and after the FFA are replaced by the normalization committee. If we get another group of death he will walk or of the new committee is problematic he will walk. But I agree after all he has talked he should at least take them there. IMO he has been the best "Australian" coach and this latest fiasco has really tarnished his persona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
