Russia 2018 World Cup - AFC Qualifiers

We don't deserve to go to the World Cup playing like this.

And I don't just mean this game either.

Been saying this since the game in Perth.

We have not dominated a single game this campaign.

[plague]

Sif we'd beat the Uzbeks or Yanks anyway.

Fold the country.

Agree there

Defensively we are abysmal and there no excuse for it really

[borat]

This formation is killing us. We don't have the quality of CB to pull this off. Everything is soo narrow.

I get why he wants to adapt to it to match the cattle but 433 would work with the midfielders we have just as well.

[plague]

Also not long til Cahill comes on and we just kick long balls the Cahill carries on like a clown as usual.

Lucky other sport is on.

Look at you all now realising Gypos are bad.

Welcome to the party.

[belchardo]

the stark difference for me is in the goals. ours came from a keeper slip, and then truly woeful marking. theirs came from two cutting passes into space and reasonable to good finishes.

you would think after the terrible performances the men in gold have put in over the last few qualifiers, they might realise they can't just rock up and expect to win anymore.

Leckie reminds me a lot of Nabbout. All the pace in the world but zero touch, decision making ability, composure etc

[plague]

Rogic is trash

[belchardo]

But look at what else is on

Druggos have rematch of GF on tonight
Tardball have rematch of GF on tonight

Coincidence??

Smell the Fear

that kind of paranoia is worthy of ending up in the birds thread membah

[plague]

Sainsbury is trash

[steve136]

Ryan is trash

[belchardo]

serious question, does anybody else think the grass is too long? i mean it's good to be playing on a field where the ball actually ROLLS along the ground, but just seems like a lot of balls are slowing up in the last few metres and a lot of players are over-running the ball or slipping over.

or are we just shit at passing and gross motor skills?

Sainsbury's a Gypo

I think you find the pitch probably too hard

I remember a HAL game there where they could barely keep the ball on the pitch

These are quality players struggling for fluency in this system imo

Glad Kruse is coming on. Is punchable, not getting enough game time, not in form etc whatever. But unlike these pricks out here at least he knows how to make a decent run off the ball
