Ryan will be out of the league in June.
I think he might even move to France or Germany.
Possibly back to one of the big Belgian or Dutch clubs.

I would but I just cant get past all the promotional shots for Adidas... thought City were sponsored by Puma? again kids looking for cash before hes even made it. wrong mindset, hope he proves me wrong but I cant see him making it far. Reminds me of Armenakas, I remember when Les Murray said he'd be world class by 20 LOL

+x+xHas the state of Aussies abroad ever looked this dire? With Ryan's seeming demise, we now don't have a single Aussie playing regularly at a good level. The kids we thought might come good like Arzani, McGree and Hrustic haven't kicked on at all, and our established players like Mooy, Rogic, Sainsbury, Degenek, Leckie have all stagnated. Are there any positive stories? Anyone to pin our hopes on? It just looks really depressing at the moment. The cupboard looks completely bare. I'll be surprised if we qualify next year. Lol. You must be new here. These things do ebb and flow a lot. Yes things have taken a dip from last season but we've had far worse Aussie Abroad situations in early 2010s and we still qualified (ok just and mainly because of Timmy). We had David Carney and Matt Mckay playing at LB FFS. It was absolutely dire. (Thread idea - what was our worst ever WCQ lineup) Degenek is going ok, Sainsbury is probably just injured but he is getting consistent game time at a decent European level which is something we havent had for a while. I'd argue our defence is looking as good as its been for quite a while. But yes, the rest of the team is a bit of a worry - but if McGree, Arzani or Hrustic can start getting regular first team game time, we still have enough cattle to be competitive. The 2014 squad was probably our worst of the decade, but the mood was a lot more hopeful than it is now. We had some awful players (McGowan lol), but we still had Cahill banging them in, Leckie and Rogic at their peaks (though I think Rogic was injured for the WC), Ryan and Sainsbury coming along nicely, Jedinak trucking along and Ange instilling optimism. It felt a lot better than now. Now it's so bad that we have no choice but to pin our hopes on a couple of Scottish rejects.

Eventually he'll step into seniors, a Muscat-esqu thug will snap him and that'll be that. Plus born and bred Aussie's snubbing the green and gold for England can get fucked.

You do realise that Morgan didn't contact him or his Father about playing for the Joey's at last year's u17 World Cup? He's since played for the Young Socceroos against Ajax u23 & Utrecht u23 & said he really enjoyed the experience. Wouldn't count him out playing for us down the track. BTW, Piscopo played for Italy at junior level and is now hard & fast Aussie

Possibly back to one of the big Belgian or Dutch clubs. there are so many big clubs or clubs in big leagues that he would be great in. he will have options. it would probably be good for him to play in a club that isnt fighting relegation every game.

Someone suggested this there be a part 2 of the AA thread a few months back as it was taking forever to load when trying to open. I have had the same problem for a while.

Very weak rumour on a Korean site: Delbridge to Seoul
By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

No Kuol in friendly against Stuttgart. John Iredale returns in friendly for Wiesbaden.
