2018 world cup qualifiers

[Holy]

Argentina - Jedi v Messi, would be good to see our boy against the best in the world
England - would love the bragging rights if we knocked them out of the group
Denmark - seeing Princess Mary in a Socceroos shirt alongside the Denmark Royal Family would be gold

Germany, England and Japan.
There are no other teams I want to see us beat more than those.

Germany - because Durban 2010 and they are a excellent team.
England - because - "Now you poms have nothing, we better at football too lol......."
Japan - because we wanna be top dog in our confederation and they are our biggest local rivals.

We cant play Japan in the group stage cos we're both in the AFC but itd be nice though.

Argentina
Iran
England

I'd love to play England at the end of the group stages with us both having to win to go through. Either that or we both go through from different groups and play each other in a knockout match.

Iceland are a handful.

They are if you're a Pom.

 

[Wombat]

True,
And the Poms are a fair bit better than us.

 

[MagpieMariner]

They may be, but we've never been beaten by Iceland.

Ange decision at 9am

I say he’s in. Was at game last night watching and enjoyed the crowd reaction and no leak of him leaving.

Wrong... he's gone

New job for Arnie?
Wonder if Australia will need a goalkeeping coach and fitness bloke too?

Way wrong
What a weird decision. Still won’t tell us the truth apart from cracking under the pressure.
Commercial speak says he’s signed a document with FFA not to say why. No slander for both sides.
Give us the dirt

 

[VicMariner]

He probably thinks Australia won't do well at the WC so there is nothing to be gained for his career by overseeing nothing but losses on the world stage. He has to go now because after the draw it will look like running away.

 

[VicMariner]

And BTW... Anges name is mud to me now, drops the Socceroos in it with the next coach almost no time to prepare for the spotlight of world attention. Weak.

Probably Gombau would be the best replacement at this late hour imo. Good coach and knows a bit about the Aussie mentality now.

Bring back ozzy guus!!!

The sports bloke on ABC radio last night was saying about the rumours that Ange didn't like the path FFA were heading down.
As soon as the rumours about him leaving started I thought he was gone. No smoke without fire.

Although Arnie seems favourite I'm not sure he'll take the job. I wonder if his failure in Japan might be still fresh in his mind.
The Sydney gig seems a very cushy gig compared to the Aussie manager. And Sydney FC won't want him to go.
Would the FFA stump up the compo payment?

Gombau? WSW would be spewing. Two coaches in a short space of time.
