I would prefer:

120% against Germany
95% against Serbia
85% against Ghana

I am hoping that will set us up for a nice AUS v ENG match!!!


I'd prefer:

100% v Germany
100% v Serbia and
100% v Ghana.


Nothing less.

What does it matter what happened against Croatia. Nothing he has said in this article is that wide of the mark. It's true we will find it hard to beat Germany and will need to focus on the last two games to get something and that we will need to play defensive and get teams on the counter. I'd agree with everything he has said there.

People really need to get over his mistake against Croatia it was four years ago, grow up.
That's not true at all. A good result against Germany, such as a draw or a 1-0 loss, limiting the damage, is absolutely key to making it out of the group should it come down to Goal difference with two teams on four points. Saying 'forget about the germans' is a bloody foolish remark.

Despite what everyone says, I actually like Kalac and his honesty. Though, I disagree with this article. There's no reason the socceroos can't give their all for all three games.

Ex-Socceroos keeper Kalac tells Australia to forget Germany
10.06.10 | Andrew Slevison

Former Australia national team goalkeeper Zeljko Kalac has basically told the current Socceroos to forget beating Germany at the World Cup.

The ex-AC Milan stopper believes Pim Verbeek’s men should focus on getting points against Serbia and Ghana after they were brushed aside 3-1 by the USA last weekend.

“Germany first up I think is going to be hard to win," Kalac said. "In my honest opinion we should just concentrate on getting something out of the next two matches against Ghana and Serbia.

“It was a wake-up call," he said of the loss to the USA.

"Whether we like it or not, what our performance showed was that we have to play defensively and try to counter the other sides to get anything out of this World Cup campaign."
