Hrustic should probably stay and get game time in Serie B, but for some reason he strikes me as the type who feels he is above playing in a second division and would force a move. 

Hrustic & Hellas Verona get a second chance apparently - because they ended the season on the same points as Spezia, they play a relegation playoff game.

Not a great night for AA - Hellas Verona/ Hrustic relegated & Viking lost. Hrustic & Yazbek both unused subs. I wonder if Arnie will pick Hrustic for the Argentina game, having not played since the WC?

Bit disappointed daggers only got 13 mins

Also shame yazbek and daggers lost their place after a bright start. Yazbek still is on a very promising trajectory if he can get more time

Hrustic bench vs Milan. 15 players on the Hellas Verona bench. Think Hrustic should return to Bundesliga 2. Post injury with the drive to play regularly makes it the ideal league.

Yazbek and D'Agostino bench. Stenseness starting and has scored. 

Yeah what was his injury

Unless you are getting game time in a good league some players can waste their whole career being frozen out after an injury

A couple others that are noteworthy. Ryan Edwards has been promoted to second tier in Spain, Gabriel Popovic to top tier in Croatia.  Edwards made a decent contribution after a January transfer.  Popovic was in and out of the team a bit.

 Ryan Edwards is an interesting one. He's always been just out of Socceroos framework and never been quite good enough whilst also having a very solid career. I think he's been tainted in Australia a bit by the fact his dad played him early on when he wasn't good enough.

And Burgess. Some solid form in the championship next season should see a Roos callup. We have some real depth at CB. Souttar, Rowles, Degenek, Wright, Circati, Deng, Burgess, Triantis.

No promotion for Parma sadly

Hopefully we see circati for the roos in two weeks

concern for circati as he goes off injured on the 53rd. Didn't look too bad, so fingers crossed he will be right for the next match if they get that far

grazorblade - 3 Jun 2023 6:39 AM

Tomi Juric played in both Swiss and Dutch leagues which I think is better than Buli 2 or at least on par. 

Cahill as well played Mls and championship which also similar or higher level to Buli 2. Rukavytsa was a star in buli 2 also earning a move to buli 1 team where he didn't play much 

The example of a player that cut his teeth in Buli 2 and had a great Australian career is Kennedy. It'll be good to see how Iredale progresses.

Sounds like he had a lot to do!

hope he gets regular time in buli 2 next year. If so he would be our best club level striker since scot mcdonald (as dire as that is!)

If I recall correctly he was called into Arnold's first ever camp which I think was the friendly in the Middle East as a train on member. Not to mention their Sydney FC time must overlap. Iredale should be included for this next window to get some exposure set up. 



His stats are weird. Only 900 minutes but has 6 goals and an assist which you would think would warrant more time

Whats happening? Apparently a delay in the match for twenty minutes?

Bielefeld fans mucking up with smoke bombs. 

Iredale just latched onto a good ball. Wish he'd shot but he and the defender essentially held hands and he went to ground. No penalty. Right call.

4:0 and it's Iredale's goal. Bielefeld cross is caught and the keeper throws it to Iredale who has no defender in front of him and can dribble from within his own half toying with the keeper and charging defender to slow home. Great composure and use of body and feet. 

Cap him.

3:0 Wiesbaden on the hour. Away goal rule applies so Wiesbaden will want to keep Bielefeld at bay. Might see Iredale come on to harass up top as Bielefeld surely try for an away goal.

Mooy out of the Scottish Cup with injury. Love to know what injury he's had that's kept him out for a month, with no updates!! Does his contact finish at the end of the season?
