His probably got a few more seasons in England before he comes to the AL 

He can play centre and right back, is experienced, fit, is highly rated by Sunderland fans and has Championship experience. But Arnold will pick his mate Grant.

He’s only 18. He’s not gonna be in a rush to play for Australia when he’s born and raised in Switzerland.

Yeah, he's Swiss. He'll only play for us if he doesn't think he can get a game for them.

Should take a low money deal and try to get into the EPL. or Go abroad and get in a top division at least.

Yeah I get what you mean you’d rather play top level then in league one. Depends on his family situation if he doesn’t want to leave England id rather see him in the championship because then his at least easier to keep tabs on 

Jack Iredale to Bolton, surprised he hasnt been looked at for the socceroos. 

TBH im surprised that more UK/scottish  based players havent got a look in/more mins 

Speaking of players like Dougall, Luongo, Wright, Elder, Burgess, Iredale, amongst others, theres some decent depth in the region, except for a number 9. 

You can also add gethin jones in there.  played and captained bolton regularly this season.

Schalke about to let go of keeper and targetting Austria Vienna gk as his replacement, according to this:

Decent move for Iredale to Bolton. A better chance at going up over Cambridge.

That's interesting. God the way Schalke will want to play as well Ryan is a great fit with his quick ball movement.

I read on Twitter the other day through an unofficial source that T. francois is out of Fulham in the summer seeking more opportunity.  

That tracks with what I read from David Ornstein in the Athletic - 

“The club are also yet to agree terms with midfielder Tyrese Francois, another 21-year-old, who rejected a new contract late last year.”

That's a pretty crap team. Only Rogic, Souttar and Mcgree I would call "talented" players. The rest are unlikely to rise above their current leagues, however we lack such depth in some areas we would be forced to call on the likes of Wright, Luongo etc to plug the gaps. I'm confident they could get the job done against UAE but Peru is another story.

Thats a big call on Atkinson. Think he has loads of potential, only one of a few current socceroos with an actual engine and hardness to his game.

Idiotic if you ask me, should come back to a-league soon as he rejected it. Now has a had a year of doing nothing.

I don't understand why people get so invested in Ryan's career. 

Nah, he was shyte against Celtic. Did one fantastic cross field pass, something you dont see much in the A league, so maybe there’s glimmer of hope for him. But at this stage of his career he is closer to League One level than EPL.

Tyrese Francois was never in the a league but you have a point he needs senior games 

Talk in the Wednesday forum was that he has already decided to head back to the A league. Personally I'd love to see him play on the continent in a more technical league. Always thought that would suit him more 

Ummm ye.. thats kinda why you'd try cap him now before Switzerland jump in I would have thought..

His father is a socceroos legend so he must feel a strong connection. We are discussing him here on an Aussies Abroad chat after all 

Must he? He may well feel a strong connection. But I wouldn’t make any assumptions

Rogic bench

King, Ryan unused 
90 and good rating for stensness
no bility in Iceland and I think Zach Duncan has been abducted by aliens because he’s fallen off the face of the earth

Duncan played in a friendly back in February but he was listed as "injured" in the last club game for AGF.

Rogic leaving Celtic. 

Is he going to the middle east for a big pay day?

Shame to see him leave Celtic, had a great season

There was a picture of Duncan in a moon boot last week. 

Langerak starting for Nagoya in J-League against Cerezo Osaka. Taggart on the bench for Cerezo.

Brescia (Fran Karacic) play tonight (2 am in Eastern states) in a knockout promotion playoff against Perugia. I expect Karacic will be on the bench as he has been used as a late substitute for Sabelli in most of Brescia's recent games.

Geez Taggart..
