I was just about to post that Elder goal. Fantastic reaction after it was blocked.

Full match for Wilkinson today as well.

Ikon 90min bench. Would an A-League loan be such a bad thing? I worry a loan in Italy would just see him on a big bench again.

Yeah it's clear that Lazio's new signing from Ajax is higher in the pecking order, time to seek a loan move, although there'll be plenty of other suitors in Europe, I'm sure.

Mabil came on in the 57 and they lost 2-1. They scored the second after he came on.

I'm sure there will be suitors in Europe too. Even a loan move to a Serie B side would probably be more preferable to coming back home at this stage, although you could probably see him slotting straight into the Wanderers line up and he is a Sydney boy.

rogic played the last half hour

Rogic was alright when he came on, nearly scored a header if I recall correctly. McGowan played 90 and was pretty poor (along with the whole team). Got skinned by Ciftci at one point but recovered well. Taggart got absolutely nothing, felt sorry for him. What a woeful team to be loaned out to.

Sutherland born and raised, Sutherland Sharks product. Inaugural marquee?

Fed might get another start against Liverpool midweek. Boruc had a stinker yesterday.

*Based on pure speculation

the kid could hold his own in the HAL or hold his own in the eriedivisie. i know which option is going to get him a better contract afterwards. (hint - not in australia)

Good to see Elder score.
I expect we'll see him in the next roos squad, since Ange isn't impressed by Behich and has now had a look at James Meridith.

dont make me laugh

Can't for the life of me understand why Ange does not like Behich.

Can't recall him doing much wrong? I think he had 1 game where he looked average

I thought he is not fully fit that's why he hasn't been in recent squads?

Did Brad smith end up signing for that club he was training with ?

Amini played 68 mins and Duncan was an unused sub in Randers's 1-1 home draw with OB.

"Things that happen in the zionist league?" --> Ruka starts and scores a hat-trick in Beitar Jerusalem's 4-2 away win over Maccabi Tel Aviv. Unshackled reportedly very mad.

I know this is a big call but I'd almost rather Matt McKay go back to left back over Davidson or Behich.

Will probably get another start, fuck it up, and Boruc will be starting again in a week or two. Bournemouth are completely fucked with their keeper situation.

Does Ruka even strike? He never did that here.

Poor Bournemouth have shipped 5 goals in two consecutive matches probably more to do with the quality of the attacks they were coming up against.

Next week they play Liverpool so they should be comfortable for a low scoring draw then and hopefully Fed is between the sticks. And this is coming from a Liverpool fan.

Do you mean is he a striker?

He had that great couple of years early on for Glory where he played as a striker and scored a bunch of goals. Can be a frustrating player at times but wouldn't be surprised to see if he gets a call up in the next squad. Just scored a hat-trick away to one of the league's best teams in Maccabi Tel Aviv. Still only 28.

How is that ridiculous? FFS, can we please start a OSAussies thread for these fifa players? Spare me.

That is obviously part of it, but a chunk of those 10 goals were a direct result of goalkeeping errors, including two from Fed last week.

If he starts against Liverpool, at least he can be assured to have a quiet game.

Nothing has been announced. He finished training with them on last week. It has been a busy week at the club though with an Europa league game in Italy then winning the title yesterday and since he is for next season I doubt there is a massive rush to sign (or at least announce) him.

Wouldn't call him up from one games performance. We have done that a lot lately and we shouldn't do that again.

I think he has 5 from 5 games. I don't think he'll get a call up but you never know.

If he does get the call I won't be shocked but I would hope he can do the business.

Degenek plays away at Mainz in the morning.

Como also playing in the Serie B. Hope Brillante gets more minutes.
