I really wonder hwo good he's coming.

@ Adelaide he never amassed this many statistics bcos he simply didn't last that long or came on late.

1 goal & 2 assists says he probably played well for an entire 90 minutes which wasn't something we really saw in him @ Adelaide

Kruse v McGowan ended up 1:1. Kruse actually won his side a penalty.

Mabil got a full game in a 3:1 defeat. Yeaboah got 82min for Gladbach reserves.

No info to hand but the home team had an empty stadium after a ban which is doing the rounds on social media CSL bashing. A full 90 for both is great even if they shouldn't be in the current national team set up.

Yeah saw that article on sport lad banter Bible lads lad or whatever it's called. Doesn't mention it was a closed doors match until the second last paragraph. Fake news at its finest.

Just saw this after my post. Hopefully he does well until June and can be his old self. Ujah wasn't in the squad and his Aussie  flag stood out well along with his Zambian teammate. James Holland wasn't in the squad.

This is the last Aarhus game. Amini's goal has already been posted but it's a great source to see our Danish Aussies.

Exactly where I saw it. The traditions of journalism are dead.

I think we can be positive that almost everyone is playing. I wonder how Irvine is getting on? Luongo has the challenge of getting back in. Rogic is on the mend. Smith really needed to go on loan. Leckie will be out one more game. 

I'dactually like to see Amini, Mabil and Ikon in the next squad. They're all pretty sharp at the moment and if we lead against Iraq, their late energy would seal the points. 

The lad bible and the like are hardly journalists.  They are just that, a bunch of lads taking the piss.

pretty much sums up our boys in china as well.

lol

yeah it's almost like our 'firsts' and our 'seconds'

Firsts being the Championship players - who will be in the starting XI

Seconds being the CSL , denmark guys

The Duke back from injury and on at the 93' as Shimizu defeat Sanfrecce 1-0

Degenek starts for Yokohama.

@highkick
The sad trith of our lack of footballers who play in the top leagues in the world

When will we see an Australian footballer play reguarly in the epl? The biggest league in the world
I remember theese prospects like Oar, Amini, Rogic (though his 25 this year there is hope) etc.
Mooy seems to be next in line at 27 this year

Oar etc .. massively ineffective @ World Cup. Tim made them all look good. We're a friggin bag of shit without Tim.

You could even say Ange is a shit coach really. Tim has saved his ass too many times

We are blessed to have tim
His saved us so many times. No one has ever contributed more to the socceroos than Tim cahill

Once China and the Middle East stop laying out the green.

this is o/s aussies. there is a national team thread.

agree about mooy.   seems pretty much settled.  i dont think the EPL is always the best option.  mooy in germany, italy, france or spain could actually be better for his game.

i think sainsbury would have played in one of the big 5 leagues by now if not for china. lets see how inter goes for him. they have an old team.

we still have leckie playing at the top level.

i would not be surprised to see jedinak move to a newly promoted team next year - reading/newcastle etc.  i cant see him fit in at huddersfield if they go up.

supposedly irvine and rogic have been getting some interest at a higher level. same with luongo.

i would not be surprised to see birrighiti get a run with swansea at some stage.

langerak will be back in the B1 next year and actually playing.

i think brad smith will go to a lower division.  he's 22  (23 in a coouple months) it's a bit too old to be warming the pine as a "young" prospect

there's a few other floating around.  a good summer and we might have 4 or 5 up there next year. fuck me it's overdue.

who else is on the cusp of playing in a big league - france, germany, italy, spain, or england?

Mooy later in the big game with Newcastle. 

Irvine Jedinak Luongo Jones and Wright starting. Elder bench and no Williams. 

Meredith vs Inman with the former starting. Both Bury players Burgess and Beadling start alongside each other while the opposite team, Gillingham, are without Herd. O'Neill starting. 

Behich starting. Bulut bench. No Burns in Japan earlier and Leckie is still suspended.

bad news for brad smith.  charlie daniels again doing well with bournemouth and now baily cargill has come on for his first match. a 21 yr old left footed centre back that plays full back as well. must have some confidence from the boss to come on at 80 mins a man down, tied game, at old trafford.

Jeggo, Ikonomidis and Amini all starting. Ryan faces Bruges later in Genk.

Mooy starting and Brighton lost.

Mooy has a rocket saved. Newcastle lead 2:0. Ryan starting against his former club.

Mooy scores a penalty. 2:1 Newcastle. 

Ryan concedes a real cracker from the edge of the box. The defence let the player run on the ball and get a swift shot away which goes just past Ryan's fingertips. Not many would have saved that. Ryan otherwise has caught manu crosses and distributed well.

You do relize that ur reason for not having any players in the epl whicg is once china and the middle east stop buying our players isnt correct.
Our players cant make it to play week in week out in the epl hence they can choose Asia
