went over at 22 and soon turns 23. Hrustic was starting more as a 21 year old at Groningen in a better league. Leckie started more at FSV Frankfurt in a better league at 21. Degenek started more at 1860 Munchen at 21 in a better league. At the same age as Genreau, Sainsbury was starting more at PEC Zwolle in a better league. Mat Ryan started at 21 for Club Brugge (better league). Stensness is doing the same at the same age as Genreau in a better league, and starting every game. Mabil the same at 21. 

Norway league better than Ligue 2, ok mate. Leckie had to go out on loan from borussia - but ok ill give you that one.

Sains cracked his kneecap first game not sure what you mean starting every week, he wasn't. Hrustic was 23 before he actually started getting games Gronigen. Degenek wasnt a start either.

lol Norweigan league not better than French Ligue 2. Ligue 2 currently ranked 1416 on club ELO, Norweigan league 1384. Add to that Denny's club is higher than Stensness too - Toulouse 1537 Viking 1465. In fact many of the teams you are pointing out above were below Toulouse's current rating

Also worth noting that Denny was starting some matches in Dutch league at 19 yrs old. 

It's early in the season, new club. Lets celebrate him cementing a starting place (as been mentioned he's now a starter). He's not setting world alight as you point oiut but doing well in a team that will most likely get promoted.

I'm happy for Denis. I'm not shitting on him at all. He's doing great at his new club, and I honestly hope he gets promoted and plays every week in Ligue 1. Would be fabulous. I'm just saying that on this forum success is exaggerated and failure is exaggerated. Let's have a sense of perspective.

Hopefully, we get to see Nathaniel Atkinson make his debut in a couple of hours. Can't wait to watch two young Aussies on one team in Europe.

Well that's a nice sentence to write. Irvine gets the ball and half turns in minimal space smothered by Harzard, Witsel, Guerrero and Hummels and threads it through which leads to a goal.

When is the squad announcement?

Arnie said on Scottish radio that the squad is finalised on Thursday. I’m assuming that means finalised with fifa/afc etc 
So my guess is Friday

Can't believe they didn't give Atkinson a run after all of the build up!!!

I know
They seemed to be cruising late in the second half and would have been good to give him 10 minutes 

D Juric started in a friendly but didn't have a hand in any of the goals
At the very least he is match fit and rated by the coach

Behich assist against Trabzonspor


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

So frustrating with Ryan. Their other keeper isn't better. I think he should demand a loan before the window closes.

Degenek to Demirspor maybe. Saw a Turkish article. They’re 4th in the Super Lig so that’s a decent standard. 

Scratch that. Linked to Columbus Crew in the MLS now.
