Love that 2006 has overtaken 2002 👏

That’s helped put my mind at ease. Ty.

I can’t remember who said it during the last game but I 100% agree with them that Bennie looks like a Brett Emerton regen. Strong, stocky, powerful, and equally adept at both RB & RM. English football feels kind of perfect for Bennie.

The Wikipedia page for the tournament says we do face Group B?

Outfield players to have not appeared at all yet: Herrington (CB) Randazzo (Winger) Memeti (Striker)

Especially being at home.

Curious to see how much rotation we go with in the next game, as the first knock-out round game is actually the WCQ, so we may want to rest some boys for that.

I think you’re right, because even if Kyrg win both of their next 2 games, we’d still finish top in the H2H tie breaker. If China draw with Kyrg and beat us though, China would top the group.

So what’s our preferred result in the China vs Kyrg game?

Can we clone Bennie so we can have him at RB and RW?

Bruh wtf Bennie is an absolute beast

Kikianis especially just looks a class above at this level. His consistent game time at senior level has clearly benefited him massively.

Quintal is looking very lively. He has fantastic close control with the ball at his feet.

And now he gets an assist! The perfect response 👏

Inserra has been incredibly flat-footed all game. Playing like he’s a CB shifted out to RB. Not been impressed at all.

Also pushing for instant promotion to the Eredivisie!

Joeys squads are always weird. Something about that age group results in a lot of inconsistencies around squad selections.

Sydney FC are crazy for not signing him up long ago.

3rd Div Brazil. Crazy how his career turned out.
