Pretty sure they had a back 4 last game and they had lots of gaps in midfield. Without Jedinak we didn't have the typical aerial dominance but Cameroon are short in the centre so Irvine might come in somewhere. 

Their defenders are monsters which make set plats a real danger. That's why I expect at least a tall back 3. The rest of our side is pretty short.

Their whole team are monsters, abobakar would eat chuck Norris for breakfast

If Ryan McGowan gets picked Ange should be sacked on the spot, picking me would only be a slightly worse mistake. McGowan is so far from good enough it should be obvious to Ange and I am struggling to understand what Ange is thinking.
Dylan McGowan may not be any better than his brother, I am not sure on that but at least Ange could say that he has not previously shown himself to be not good enough so deserves a chance.
Selecting both McGowan's in the squad ahead of Wilkinson was a massive error, and there are plenty of other options who I think are probably better including Devere, Mrcela and Jovanovic. Burgess is a young emerging player who could have been selected on that basis even though he might not be quite ready yet.

I agree with you that Ryan McGowan is a terrible defender at this standard but to say there is plenty of others who could of been picked is wrong.

By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Gersbach is interesting, but good to see Mooy has been played deeper.

I think we'll win this one.

Decent changes. Defence can have another shot together. Go Gersbach! Kruse and Leckie together should be interesting.

hmm. Guess thats like a 3 4 2 1 setup? Back 3 then Mooy and Milligan with Leckie and Gersbach as wingbacks, dual AM in Kruse and Rogic then Juric at 9.  That right?

good luck to Gersbach but what I remember of him from his Sydney days his defence is a weak point, and he will be up against it with the Cameroon wingers.  Also be very interesting to see how Kruse does.

I am actually looking forward to seeing how Gersbach does. I really rate the kid, he could be a mainstay for the next 10 years.

City Sam wasn't criticising his defensive performance. Going forward he didn't do enough. Didn't try beating his man once...which we have become more use to with Smith on the left.

And he was also dropped, there were plenty of times Behich had space to take the game on and stretch the German defence, he never even tried and has been dropped because of it. If he did do that we'd have created a few more chances and maybe get an equaliser.

Yes, however he said it "ultimately cost us" which it didn't, behich on a number of occasions tried to beat his man, should've won a penalty too. Could he have done a lot more? Absolutely, but to say his hit and miss performance cost us? Absolutely not.
