World Cup 2018 FIFA World Cup-Group C Thread (Australia, France, Peru, Denmark)

Anyone want to try and guess what our side is going to look like.
Bare in mind that I don't know what Formation our new coach likes to play, and don't follow a lot of the obscure leagues that our guys play in.

I reckon France will go all gangsta on our ass in round 1.

4-0

Do France even have any good players? Pfffft France.

Guilhem Guirado is a pretty good hooker. He also their captain.

So Guerrero is allowed to play after the rival teams said he should be allowed to play.
In before he scores key goals against the other teams..
ridiculous to help a direct rival .

The players realise what the world cup means. They're mature and don't want him to miss the opportunity to play as they themselves know how crushing it would be to miss out. They also have enough belief in themselves to win no matter the calibre of the opposition.

Simon Hill said that BVM said to him we are playing 4-2-3-1 and thats how we've been lining up in training. Categorically said "No" when asked if there is any chance we play 3 at the back. Your team looks to be a good guess apart from LM and RB which is anyone's guess atm.

Edit: And Wright obviously.

Wright didn't make the squad, Jurman likely to partner Sainsbury I would think.

Otherwise team looks pretty good, that left wing is definitely a problem position but Irvine might be the go.

I'd be keen to see Karacic get a crack at RB.

I do love Risdon, but I'm not convinced he's up to international level.

 

[corbies]

It might seem crazy but I could even see us running Jedinak/Milligan holding midfield combo and pushing Mooy up to CAM and leaving Rogic out of the side against France atleast.

I was thinking today we could play Rogic as a false nine against France and aim to get him the ball between the lines. No idea if BvM would actually entertain that however.

No thank you. And no thank you.

Yeah I’ve always liked the idea of Rogic as a false nine.

He's like the anti-Ange. Will have to wait and see if it actually makes more defensively solid.

Is it considered a shock that Wright wasn't named ?
I thought he was in good form domestically, and has always impressed me from what I saw at Socceroos level.

 

[ioppolo]

Wright is definitely in our best extended squad, I'm for one shocked he wasn't named

 

[SM]

Who was it not rating Leckie?

 

[charcoalchicken]

Nabbout with his first goal for the aussies, well done, special moment for him and his family/friends

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Who was it not rating Leckie?

Quite a few people, clearly they don't follow the game much outside of the Roos.

 

[charcoalchicken]

If it was up to me cahill wouldn't be going to the world cup but we all know that won't be happening

 

[ioppolo]

So 4-0, who would've predicted that

 

[RossFC]

If it was up to me cahill wouldn't be going to the world cup but we all know that won't be happening

I reckon he'd be a decent option on the bench.

 

[Macpotata]

AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Macpotata]

He's got experience on the big stage and is proven though. I understand why you have these sentiments but he's earned the right but more so proved his worth. He's like an experienced, battle hardened fighter. He can handle the pressure and knows how to get it done.

I'd take him.

 

[charcoalchicken]

Agree he gets a spot on the bench in the end, just can't believe were relying on him to get us out of trouble

Are we relying on him?

Tim Cahill only needs one moment of brilliance, time and time again he has dragged our asses out of the shit, he plays every day for me.
Behich makes great space but can be wasteful with the ball, Wright I'm glad isn't going, gets caught out of position too often and I have never been impressed with him.
Jurman plays and Milligan goes into the middle, Rogic needs to work hell of a lot harder, he should look at the workrate of Mooy.
Tommy Juric has a great first touch to deceive defenders but his finishing is atrocious. The keys against France are the wings, Leckie needs to get on his bike in our back third and break that line that France will set pushing up really high.
If we can defend that short run and passing around our box we'll then half the battle is won, France ain't just going to whack long balls into our area.
