Didn’t realise iredale is only 22. Feel like he’s been around forever. Striking options are so poor at the moment if he grabs a few goals he’s in the mix

90 for Dougall in a 4-1 loss to Nottingham Forest. Dougall didn’t really do anything wrong; his team just couldn’t contain a ruthless Forest. He had a decent chance on goal in the second half and was a general pest around the middle of the park when defending. He’s definitely not a glamorous player, but he does a job breaking up play.

They are blowing up about him on the Blackpool forums. Lots of comments like “not good enough for the Championship”

Kalik assist


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

To be fair, not many of their players actually look like they are championship level players. Their entire team got completely outclassed in that game. For them to single him out is harsh. I have seen a few of their games this season and he has been one of their better players in those. FotMob regularly has him rated in the 7+ category and his team are lower-mid table. Against the teams around them on the table, he’s just fine.

JRB, Burgess, luongo, kalik, sainsbury, degenek, behich, 
genreau started, circati got 70 odd minutes. 
Hrustic, kamau, JCP, iredale, Mcgree, Grdic, gersbach, unused. 

No AMB, devlin, Irvine  or atkinson who I’m assuming are all injured/covid. 

JRB and kalik the most encouraging I believe. JRB seems to be in their best XI now and souttar was playing the same level a couple of years ago so the chance is there. Kalik got MOTM and by all reports is killing it over there

What a disaster of a career he's had. He was literally our next golden boy back in 2018 - he was great in the friendlies leading up to the world cup & was pretty good in the tournament. From there it's just turned to shit for him. Very unlucky for both himself & the NT. I think he needs to come home & reboot his career in the a league

Kalik with 5 goals & 5 assists in 21 games this season. How's that stack up to our other #10 options for the Socceroos? Metcalfe 2 & 4 in 18 games & started against Japan. Croatian League better level than A League? I'm not sure if he's in consideration but maybe he should be?

Once again Gersbach has fallen out of favour at his club. Time for him to reboot his career back in Australia too. Had so much potential.

Arzani did his acl, thats unpredictable, but he is probably still dominating the league by now with his recovery and has a larger experience to draw on when things go pear shaped

He probably just isnt very good. Tearing it up in the A league unfortunately doenst count for much. If you cant compete in a weak European league you probably just lack talent.

Couple of goals in the German third division should not be leading to Socceroos contention for an intercontinental play off LOL.

How standards have fallen.

'If he grabs a few goals he could be in the mix,' and 'in contention for selection for the play off games, are not similar.

Should have been clearer. 
I expect we won’t make the WC. 
At which time we should get rid of the elder statesmen and bring in new blood. If iredale scores goals this season he could be in the mix for the next cycle. I don’t think he should be anywhere the squad for the next two games

Easily the best player out there - but yeah, he could've scored 3 goals & had an assist as well. His passing has been mint

Man! Watching Ange's Celtic and comparing to our Socceroos is like a night and day. Someone should show this game to Arnie of how a desperate and urgency of football is like. In a do or die game in our world cup qualify  we need a fighting spirit like this Celtic team. Don't let the opposition breathe, everyone never stop running. What a beautiful game and what a pressing football. Very exciting to watch. This is absolutely opposite to Arnie boring football.
