Unsure how Velupillay and Khelifi get selected ahead of Arzani and to some extent Folami, add Chapman at RB and you get an attacking clusterfuck.

+x+xNo Lawrence Thomas? That'll make Mark Rudan happy. Yeah, wonder what he did to warrant being dropped. Maybe he didn't sit up straight when he was on the bench in Qatar. Ryan must have sensed his toes in the water in the 50m god damn moat around him so the tail told the dog to drop him

Miller ruled out, so Nizzy gets his first senior call up!! In fact, this might be the first time he's represented Australia at any level, not sure? He's deserved his shot after the season he's had.

+x+xGlover, Deng, Miller, Jones, Yazbek, Silvera, Borello. Better options are out there … Name them Glover is suspect. Some A League keeper in form could've entered the camp. Deng is playing J League and the selection is justified. Great NZ away. Crumbled against Ecuador. Just one game. Circati would be in but for his special case. Miller is now out but shouldn't have been selected anyway. Strain and the new generation see us healthy at right back. I think Yazbek is good and needs to get a run. Robertson injured and Genreau MIA. Another of the unassuming club actually putting in the hard yards and can actually play so give Yazbek a go. Silvera is class on his day. As others have mentioned, Arnold is bogged down with older favourites and we don't have that many games so we can't give the 11 the biggest of shake ups. Our calendar is full of qualifiers now so we won't have many friendlies. Now and June dead rubbers are an opportunity.

+xNo Nisbet, Arzani instead we still got Baccus who warming the bench in SPL. Why would you pick Arzani, the guy is shit. Victory bench player and couldn't score a goal if his life depended on it.

Arzani draws defenders to him and frees up teammates to score more than himself - 2 goals 5 assists - has started more games then he’s been on bench this season. Borello had good run last season but makes squad with just 1 goal (just yesterday!) and 3 assists

Borello had good run last season but makes squad with just 1 goal (just yesterday!) and 3 assists Pretty much all Arzani's assists have been from set pieces. Whilst I will admit he occasionally does well to draw a player and take on a defender, he lacks any sort of end product, and always has. I'll be honest, I too was fooled into thinking Arzani had all this potential and I would love to see him in the national team, but now I've watched him for a whole season I have completely changed my mind. He is honestly pretty hopeless; his level is bench A-league player.

+xUnsure how Velupillay and Khelifi get selected ahead of Arzani and to some extent Folami, add Chapman at RB and you get an attacking clusterfuck. I've watched every minute of Victory this year, and I can honestly say my choice of wingers to start would be Velupillay and Khelifi/Folami. Arzani has started most games and produced 1 goal!! That is pitiful as an attacker and sure as hell doesn't warrant Socceroo's selection. I've said this a few times in this thread, but I'll repeat, his product is absolutely woeful, and all this potential people claim he has is just hot air.

Velupillay is absolute shite - Arzani would have double digit assists this season if Velupillay could actually finish. Regarding goals, yeah he could probably score a few more, but his game is built around setting chances up & beating defenders in the build up to goals. He would be great as an impact player coming on with 25/ 30 left on the clock for the Roos

Popa has dropped him to the bench for a reason, and that reason is a winger who can't score goals is absolute rubbish. Secondly, how predicable Arzani's play is; the way he stops the ball dead and slows the play right down (literally every time he receives it) he would be torn to shred by any decent international level player, even those of Asia.
