He should play as an No.8 with Rogic, but Arnie likes him further deeper if only he trusts Genreau as the sole No.6 defensively because Irvine doesnt really fit that role.

Here's a thought, how about Dougall?!! An actual no.6 that plays in the championship 90 mins every week & is consistent AF!! 
I like Genreau, but he's an 8 as well and so is Metcalfe (so is McGree for that matter)

Yep in my mind Devlin, Dougall, Jeggo or Holland should be playing in that 6 role. Anyone else and you are trying to fit a square into a round hole. I think Devlin is the best option atm.

From what ive seen Dougall is a bit limited on the ball especially as the lone No.6 you will get found out, Devlin or even Stensness could also be options for the future.

It's a shame we are so light on for CBs
Sainsbury was excellent as a no 6 in Switzerland

I hope JRB at Accrington can carve out a good career. He has all the attributes of a modern day CB and from all reports has made a good start to his Senior football career.

hope devlin blooms

he is in the mold of milligan and holland where they are comfortable on the ball and an awesome ball winner

Holland looked particularly impressive early only to fizzle. So his early bright start is no gaurantee he will fulfill his potential

Holland very UnLucky not to be picked in socceroos considering he played well in the first round of qualifiers where we played 5 matches or whatever it was to finish then off.

People should watch him play and if he is doing well maybe there should be a chorus to include him
Irvine, hrustic, genreau and mooy all are better up field a but, at least as eights

Boyle played as an out and out striker for Hibs and now on Soccerway as a striker for new club.
Sick of him being stuck out on the wing for OZ

Another fine Rogic goal.

Arnold has so much wrong with our players. This weekend shows it yet again. Wrong positions, wrong tactics and better players missing out.

Wish he can do that against Japan.  But the teammates DM like Irvine who always turn the ball over and Mooy who always sideway and backward pass specialist there is not much he could do.

We might as well back arnold since he will be in charge until we qualify or fail

besides, i have my reservations about him as a nt coach but he has been brilliant with youth at ccm and sfc. Half our team seem to have been developed by him.

so i hope he doesnt have a bitter taste in his mouth if he fails and comes back to the a league

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

Not impressed with Atkinson so far but Rangers away is a step up.

Quick look on Soccerway shows he only played in 4  A-League Games and an FA cup game this season before his move.
Some of those games were off the bench.
Form and fitness is probably not where it should be and I expect he would have been eased in if it wasn't for Smiths injury.
Edinburgh derby against Hibs
Celtic
Rangers 
In the space of about a Month is a big eye opener.
New team,new formation and position with the likes of Jota, Aribo and Kent running at you will only benefit him going forward into easier games.
