Aussies abroad 🌍🦘

[Mr Cleansheets]

Burgess (LCB) Circati (CB) Geria (RCB) all day long.

In a back five, that's definitely my centre three.

 

[Bruce Ramsay]

No record of him playing since the last qualifiers. Injured/dropped? Hard to tell

He's played basically every game for TSC since he transferred to them in January. Both before, and after, the last qualifiers. Sofascore has a full listing of his matches. He usually rates quite well.

 

[DDAVIES]

The other one that springs to mind is Adama Traore who is dual national. He had a season at Vitoria de Guimaraes.

There have been a lot of failures, particularly young players. Patafta, Hammond, Teague. I hope Okon-Engstler gets out.

Late to this thread. Eugene Galekovic and Jason Davidson both played in Portugal briefly many years ago. Can't recall if their teams were playing at the top level but quite possible

Iredale at LCB may be a possibility.

Iredale at LCB may be a possibility.

He's in the training camp.

 

[Frankly Speaking]

Surely Circati will not be risked in this game?

 

[Mr Cleansheets]

If Circati is playing now, why shouldn't he play in June?

I think irankunda has the capability to peak getting 5 to 6 good seasons in a mid table big 5 team in his prime, which is a huge step up on what we have produced but still below what we would like to produce

Yeah he's not the same level as Kewell... but he fits the needs of the modern winger - fast, strong, good finisher. Kewell I would argue could of played anywhere across the forward line even as a 10.

This will be irankundas game, runs in behind and one touch finishes.... this is exactly how the socceroos will try to score.



He also brings the media attention... I dont think ive seen 10 report on any other OS aussies.

No Goodwin tonight.

MOTM against the league leader coming off an ACL in nearly unsurpassable so he's the goods.

So pumped for Ange. Europa league champions. First Aussie manager to win a major European tournament.

Rowles, Girdwood-Reich and Yazbek all started for their teams in the MLS. Cup comp. Rowles as captain and Yazbek with an assist got wins.

girdwood-reich starting at an mls club at age u21 is nothing to sneeze at and something to keep an eye on...

Josh Nisbet played the full match in addition to stoppage time for Ross County in their 1-1 Scottish Premiership promotion/relegation playoff first leg draw against Livingston. Tete Yengi came off the bench for Livingston in the 82nd minute.

Looks like he.got about 20 mins. Not sure what to make of his loan move

Irankunda didn't set the world on fire but it wasn't a waste. Irankunda is very young. To play as much as he has in the Swiss league at his age as he did is impressive. He was a starter for much of that, and a sub only at the end of the season. A lot of goal contributions but would love to have seen more goals. I think it's a successful development stepping stone.

Reasonable loan. Started well but he wasn't able to maintain the level to keep his place in a poor side. Still a big talent with equally big holes in his game. Plenty of room for him to improve.

Possible Socceroos luxury squad selection on talent (similar to the initial Popa Arzani selection), but his performances on paper haven't earned him a spot.
