Qatar 2022 World Cup

[The Hacker]

Really pleased for Japan (and Asian football in general). It's been a pretty good tournament so far

The results so far with Japan topping their group beating Spain and Germany then Saudi beating Argentina were we being over harsh on Australia not coming top 2 easily in qualifying

I think Asia is stronger and more technical than we give credit. This had been a terrific tournament to showcase that and the strengths of Asia when they go toe to toe.
I think we should be aiming for automatic qualification as a pass mark, but also be aware that that is actually an achievement. Playoffs is like having to sit the test again.
We have lots of useless games in Asian qualifying though. And those early rounds don’t help the general perception of Asia when the news reports us winning games by 3,4,5,6 goals to nil. Like even the final round, it’s essentially 3 teams in each group playing for automatic qualification.

The leagues in Saudi, Japan and Korea are all improving and their base of players to select from is getting stronger. Which an outsider may say the same about the a league, with a lot of our squad playing in the a league in recent times. We tend to have a complex that our league is rubbish. But people will be looking at Leckie, duke and Goodwin to see where they are playing.


Another cracking day with Group H drama. These last round games have been terrific for a neutral this WC.

Hats off to Arnie and the lads, well done

Where I would say the Asians have got better is defensively

Have a look at Japan

Even though they parked the bus against Spain and Germany they were pretty tight in defence. Even in WCQ I have noted when they play us their strategy is to get their defence sorted first and keep a clean sheet rather than trying to outplay us with their superior technical skills

Korea have also kept it very tight at the back

Even Australia with the 2 clean sheets in a row

Take the useless Qataris out of the equation and Iran's aberration against England the Asian teams have got into games based on being able to defend at the required standards at this level

I would say this is the big issue as we ain't seeing cheap goals scored from defenders or keepers not able to deal with aerial threats in the box like in the past

[belchardo]

And that's the difference. We do nothing with several half chances, Messi scores from his first half chance.

[MFKS]

And that's the difference. We do nothing with several half chances, Messi scores from his first half chance.

Notice how the whole thing came from.Messi actually pressing Behich and then Behich losing his cool at getting roughed up by Messi

[belchardo]

MFKS = bosnich???

[MFKS]

MFKS = bosnich???

Bozza gets all his takes from the Foz

[belchardo]

Here's one for him then - Ryan you're an idiot.

FFS - absolutely no awareness.

[MFKS]

FFS

That's classic Jets

[Bremsstrahlung]

Good press to pressure him and he made the wrong call.

[belchardo]

Oh, kuol so close!

[Imyourhero]

Ryan has cost us 2 goals this WC by trying to poorly play out when we clearly needed to clear the ball

[plague]

Man, imagine if we ever had a decent coach or more than a few decent players? Skys the limit innit.

[MFKS]

Ryan has cost us 2 goals this WC by trying to poorly play out when we clearly needed to clear the ball

Cost us v Holland in 2014 when he let Memphis Depays shot from 30 yards go straight through him

Guy was axed by Potter at Brighton
Guy was not good enough as a No2 at Arsenal
Guy couldn't get in the Real Sociedad side
Guy can't get in the Copenhagen side


The only side he can make is the Socceroos

I also don't believe this guy is the best keeper we have at all

The only bloke who does is Gypo Arnie

[Jim]

With our WC chances on a thin line we have a keeper who decides to take on 2 of the best field players in the world?

ryan isn't the idiot.,
idiot is the FFA curriculum, thats at fault!
as a non technical playing nation, we are continually brainwash to play from the back.
news flash- we are the suckaroos not barcelona
overall they should be pretty happy with how the performed

When you are played a back pass and you have defenders getting in close to you then you

A - Dribble past them in your box
B - Hack it up to half way
C - Smash it into the stands and concedes throw in


If you pick option A then you are either a caravan dwelling Gypo or an idiot

[Buddha]

I dribble past pressing defenders all the time but i am very good though
