Looking at how arnie played the last few years with Sydney and the success he had with the 4-2-3-1 system it got me thinking.
At Sydney arnie didn’t use wingers, he used ninkovic and Adrian as the right and left attacking midfielders. He got his width from the right and left back bombing up and back.
Do you think he will implement this style to the NT? Wingers are a problem for us and we do have a few good attacking midfielders who could do the ninkovic/Adrian job (luongo, rogic, mooy, Irvine, da Silva, genreau, Petratos).

The only concern is the wing backs. I think behich is as good as Zullo, but internationally I don’t think risdon could do it international level.

Also, where does this leave our actual wingers? Leckie, nabbout, kruse.

Just something that’s been playing on my mind. Personally I’d try Leckie at striker or at RB. I’m still undecided.

Surprised Matt Simon hasn’t been mentioned yet :)

But seriously, I wonder how our striker woes will be dealt with over the next cycle. Hopefully, Juric recovers and Maclaren has a great run.
