Sth Korea's best>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Our best. Son alone is better than all our stikers put together, when he is ill, Cahill included. And don't get me started on their midfielder captain who craps over any midfielder we've had in the past 10 years. Everyone of their players is technically superior to ours. Physically they made our players look small. They scored, they held out, they won. With a hard-arsed German coaching them, they'll be hard to beat.

Sorry they are not that much better than us. They have like what 4 players in Europe? I rate those four and a few of the players they have in Korea but the rest of them are nothing to write home about to be making such massive claims as you are.

They have been poor in the past 24 or so months. All the matches I have seen of them since the 2011 Asian Cup (About 12) they have looked crap. As a collective unit they are crap. As I said they have shown good character, however i saw more than enough reasons from watching them in the recent past to have been confident we would not lose at home to them. Which let's face it if it was not from poor finishing would not have happened. Good on them, I give them no chances of winning the tournament, don't even believe they will make the final.



Yeah well if my aunty had balls she'd by my uncle.

The fact is when they were the hosts of a major tournament, the World Cup, they made the semi's. OTOH We lost to them as the hosts. So of course you would expect us to create chances, but we didn't put them away, they did.

And I still stand by their technical superiority over our players, where I'd rate us 8th out of the 8th quarter finalists. Their best are better than our best too. As far as European players Jedinak is the highest ranked and this team is due to be relegated. Our second highest Kruse can't get a look in beacsue of Son, who broke the dead lock yesterday in a high quality game when still ill.

We are not disagreeing that much, I just think they are shit as a team and overrated.

I agree with you on them technically, i agree we are technically the worst team in the final 8. I just feel Korea is not better than us and super overrated. Anyway, they have been given a gift draw to make the final now. Iran imo would have beaten Korea. Uzbeks were penetrating the Koreans a lot last night, both teams could have won it in the 90 mins of play.

My general point is that we are more than competitive no matter how over matched we are, look at the trash we had playing against Japan twice in the WCQ for 2014, Japan couldn't put us away due to our physicality and strength. It is a massive advantage we have over Asian sides. As a collective unit we have looked better than Korea, just so many holes in their game over the past 2 years.

The winner of the tournament will come out of Australia's half imo. What do you think?

Peace out bro
