+x+x+x+xPrimavera is an U20 comp. Good on him for doing well there but that doesn’t mean he’s made it professionally, nor does it mean he’s good enough to play for the national team, let alone in a crucial World Cup qualifier. I rate Folami & Tilio, but I doubt those 2 would make a match day squad, let alone actually play in 4 games for Roma. If he's good enough to have played any minutes in Serie A & score a goal, then he's good enough to at least come off the bench for the Socceroos. He's pretty much trained the whole season with their Top squad, even that experience would be enough. He's also played for the Italian u21 team & they would probably give the Socceroos a run for their money. I reckon he's good to go Italian sides have 12 man benches so as soon as you get any injuries, primavera players will end up on the bench. Playing 4 games doesn’t mean you’ve made it at all, especially when Roma apparently don’t have great squad depth either. Ikon played a game or two for Lazio and he was never Serie A standard. Volpato wouldn’t even be a guaranteed Olyroo, let alone a Socceroo.
Not only that but we need experience for these upcoming games, throwing in a kid who A) probably isn’t good enough and B) probably doesn’t want to play for us anyway won’t help us in any way whatsoever. This is so ridiculous and it is obvious you haven't seen him play. 1. He is playing at a higher level than any Australian except Ajdin Hrustic. 2. He has now played 3 Serie A games, scored a goal, and been subbed on in a must-win game to make a difference. He looks totally fine at Serie A level - playing with confidence and flair. 3. Ikon played one dead rubber for Lazio when he was a year older than Volpato. Our lord and saviour Ange didn't even wait for that to select Ikon - he selected him before he'd played a pro game. 4. There was no injured player who made way for Volpato to come onto the bench. He came onto the bench because he scored a hat-trick in the previous Primavera game. 5. This kid - if you've watched him play at all - has huge x-factor. He is definitely good enough and arguably the greatest coach of all-time thinks he's good enough at the moment to come off the bench and make a difference for a team far better than the Socceroos. Hahahhahaha 1. Primavera is NOT a higher level than any other player bar Hrustic. 2. THREE games! He has not made it yet nor does that mean he’s Serie A level. 3. Ikon was capped in a friendly ffs, not in a crucial WCQ where we need experience. 4. Roma had a number of young/primavera players on the bench so you’re talking shit. 5. You think literally every young player will be a star so it’s hard to take that seriously. 6. He seemingly has a shit attitude and doesn’t want to play for us so fk him.

Couldn't have said it better. He also won the best attacking player award in the Primavera as well.

He should be in the u23 squad at the minimum u20 young Socceroos if they have games lined up.
Again im not sure if Arnie has intentions of bringing him in, these are elimination games and throwing him in with no international experience might make it too overwhelming but you never know if Arnie has changed he's mind about bringing him in.

+x+xValpato in the Primavera team of the season at CAM. 11 goals & 4 assists - outstanding for a 17/18 yr old playing in an "u23's"/ reserves comp. What, he's run on for 3/4 games for AC Roma & scored a goal this season - I still think he should be selected in the next Socceroos squad & get a cap. He can definitely be our next Harry K, so we can't afford to lose him!! Totally agree 👍 Arnold will see it differently no doubt given his brilliant coaching mind & win rate in WCQ’s recently The current squad haven’t produced the goods so far, maybe GA thinks they’ll fluke a win eventually.

Not sure why Roma don't have an u23 team - guess its easier to get them into the first team by just skipping the u23 route haha

+xThere is virtually zero chance of GA giving an 18yo prodigy his first cap in a game that will define GA's managerial career. GA will rely on tried and true players, like his faves Ryan Grant and Mitch Duke, than dare experiment with youth. We will be lucky to make it past UAE if I'm being honest. Sad but true unfortunately. He didn’t pick him for the Japan SA games he won’t pick him for these ones.

+x+xApparently Kenny Dougall made 60 tackles in the season, the most by anyone in the championship. Posted on Blackpool FB page. We need a proper number 6 don't we? Yeah we do. Gianni Stensness. There is no way Stensness is better than Dougall (not yet anyhow)

+x+xAtkinson on for Devlin at HT. Rogic starting in farewell. Bubble wrap! No AMB. What happened there? Fallout? Injury? Surely the latter. Things were going well. Here's hoping Charlton are going to give him a shot or a loan to another League One club next season. Murray Miller on the bench for Rangers against Hearts too. While he didn’t get on, it’s still a good sign that they rate him. He recently signed a contract extension. Hopefully he gets some first team opportunities or a decent loan next season. That’s awesome!
