+x+x+xIrvine starting vs Liverpool. Rogic bench tonight. Wright not in squad. Still no Birra at Swansea. From the Championship football I've seen recently, I'm appalled at the style of play. I cannot see any value for any aspiring Socceroo playing Championship football. With BEIN, I've been able to have a look at the French League, the Spanish League, the Brazilian League, the Italian league, and this year the Portuguese league in Portugal. All these leagues are excellent for developing international footballers. Technically and tactically players appear to tread water, or go backwards playing Championship football. I know there are exceptions, like Bournemouth, who have looked pretty good in the EPL, but teams spend so little time in possession of the ball in the Championship where there is a lack of skill under pressure of limited time and space. Probably the best thing is the clinical finishing of the strikers and their goalcraft. Japan is a far better option than the Championship. Irvine, Luongo, Mooy and Wright need to leave the Championship ASAP. But from a National Team perspective, don't we need players experienced in playing out those types of tactical games? Ange plays a possession based pressing style, however the teams we face in Asia and around Europe will be playing more direct styles and counter attacking styles. Tactics are as much about playing your own style as they are about adapting to the oppositions style, so playing both using and against the direct style tactics is not a problem IMO. The benefits of this league are certainly physicality, mentality and tactical awareness, for those midfielders they would be developing direct attacking tactics as well as defensive tactics such as breaking up play and a setting up against a counter attack (remember how Holland and Jordan counterattacking us showed a potential weakness for your setup?) any way you look at it i think we all agree these lads getting 90min a week in this league plus exposure to highly professional set ups is a positive, rather that then them all riding the pine. The tactics in the Championship I'd surmise are often less sophisticated than the continent and when the better EPL teams play each other. Some Asian teams sit back, defend deep, remain very compact, then have a go on the counter attack against us. Comparatively, Championship teams play a higher line, with a fair bit of a gap between the lines. Generally, they are not as patient. They play the ball ever forwards, at lighting speed on the flanks, up into the mixer and balls over the top. The proof is in the pudding. I'm not sure who has played a lot of Championship football and has clearly improved as a Socceroo by playing there in recent years. If Rhys Williams hadn't been injured, he might be one. For Aussie players to develop overseas, Australia needs players whose club teams spend far more time in possession of the ball for sustained periods than the Championship. There are about 8 leagues where I've seen this in Europe.

the point about playing against various styles is an interesting one.
I was thinking who had improved the most rapidly in recent years in europe
the two that come to mind are strange - luongo when he was in league one (he has stagnated thus far in the ecl. Hope that changes) and rogic
Both have played in rough leagues playing with coaches that like a possession based game where they tend to dominate against defensive physical and organized teams
in this environment they have improved arguably faster than players developing in the holy trinity :k

On the ball Milligan has made more progress having a lot more of the ball ay his feet in club football, despite at a lower level. I think Leckie has plateaued. This Aussie Abroad thread is always interesting because unknown Oz players constantly arise. From observing the UCL, there are a number of leagues in Europe where they seem to have 1- 3 powerhouse clubs who are a lot better than the rest of their domestic league. They do reasonably well in Europe. Some of the Ukrainian, Dutch, Belgian, Greek, Swiss, Russian, Croatian, Serbian and Turkish clubs come to mind. Against teams like Barca and Bayern they often set up like a top Italian team.

All this makes an interesting question. Is it better to have as many of our footballers in the same league (providing it's high enough quality and they're getting enough game time) with the same general sort of style?
Or is it better to have them in various leagues with differing styles?
Personally, I prefer the varied leagues. It expands our repertoire. And I think the strength of Australian football has tended to be that it has been a bit of hotpotch which different influences and footballers plying their trade in leagues as varied as the Premier League and the Serie A.
I like the idea of some of them having the kind of tactical shrewdness gained in the Serie A, the really nice combination of technical and tactical football seen at the better Dutch sides and the physicality, intensity and grit of the English leagues.
The best Australian side ever was coached by Guus and had very different types of footballers playing in various places.
Ideally, we continue this. But we have as many Australian footballers as possible who've been developed by the NC (so there's that much uniformity), then the best ones are in Europe from 15 years plus and across Europe.

+x+x+xRogic appears so unfit. He really needs to strengthen up. He looks exhausted from every run. Everyone looked knackered tbf after chasing the ball all game in the heat. Id say when we are confident enough that he won't break into pieces, he will be starting extra conditioning sessions to get his stamina up. He won't make it through the whole season as a starter without it. I'm not sure if you saw my post, MT, but after my initial reservations about Rogic and Celtic a few years ago, I loved the style of football Celtic played at home against Happoel. I liked what I saw from them much more than most EPL teams I've seen. Rodgers is an enlightened coach who helped Muscat a lot. Celtic has a history of playing beautiful football, and is known as the 'Celtic way'.

I'm happy to eat humble pie as I excoriated Celtic under Neil Lennon. Deila and Rodgers look to have been the real deal. Although there have been some Celtic fans that complained about the last game played away that qualified Celtic for the UCL.

Although he said it is nowhere near as good as the FFA NC. A few years ago, I saw Burnley try to play good football, albeit on a shocking pitch.

None other than the Premier League winners of the season just gone; Leicester City. And he has them playing a highly, highly counter-attacking style. Obviously, this isn't totally at odds with Italian styles which we've previously discussed. But, for mine, it is (understandably) more reactive than one would expect to see from a top-notch Italian side which (despite being reactive rather than proactive) will have high quality midfielders directing traffic a bit. Leicester City run until they die and just hold out in defence. Then they counter-attack very quickly with Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez.
