After his monster performance running on low batteries I think he should be considered.
He will be 32 not so old. If he keeps up his fitness.
Bresc and McKay will be on the outer one would think. McKay might become the new "Gramps" of the squad.
We seem to have some up an comers in the midfield but are looking thin on the right.
I am scared of Ivan v Germany. His poor passing game and lack of backing up will create many counter attacks.

Milligan seems the kind of guy who doesnt have an ego and just gives it all for his team.

I'd like to see better combined pressuring and 1v1 mid's, you can keep him as a screener or RB. Good sub on as a dual DM screener with Jedinak if we've got the lead. Milligan's an interesting one because he's now not really needed in the NT starting XI.

Luongo has probably hallmarked what we want, him and Troisi's ball pressure and 1v1 breaking through defenses is what we wanna see and progression towards scoring goals. Retaining the ball and squeezing to get the ball back, we need fit running machines.

Milligan will warm the bench until Jedinak's ready to sit down again.
