The Socceroos thread.

TBF Recky could outpace Stormy. But Kuol would make alot of us look like traffic bollards.

Not sure where you got thirty degrees from. The average daily temperature in Qatar in November is 26 degrees and 24 in December. It will be no hotter than the Brazil World Cup.

Your narrative is completely wrong.

Temperature​

In Doha, the average high-temperature in November decreases from a torrid 35.2°C (95.4°F) in October to a moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F). In Doha, Qatar, the average low-temperature is 19.5°C (67.1°F).

Heat index​

The average heat index in November is appraised at a hot 33°C (91.4°F). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature', 'felt air temperature', 'real feel', or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Additional factors like activity, metabolic differences, clothing, and wind affect individual temperature impact. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it is vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.

Humidity​

In November, the average relative humidity in Doha is 66%.

 

[marinermick]

But the WC is late November and mostly in December?

Even so, 68% is hardly oppressive as you claim.

Wanderers job should be available once the WC is over.

I'm calling Wutd too

 

[BrisRecky]

I doubt Arnie would come back to the A-League, I mean, he went to japan after he won the title with us , albeit a failed excursion

The Socceroos need an entirely new approach for 2022 World Cup - FTBL | The home of football in Australia

 

[FFC Mariner]

A new modern coach for starters - Ajax got smashed this morning with their Dutch play it out from the back nonsense. Got pressed to death

Watch: Statement from the Socceroos

Over the last few years, we have been on a journey to understand and learn more about the situation in Qatar.

Dutch Football is shite. Only Craig Foster thought otherwise. Sadly a lot of muppets listened to that flog.

 

[booney]

Not sure Dutch football is that shite.Barcelona and subsequently the Spanish NT based their play and success on the Dutch style of play as introduced by Cruyff.Admittedly both those teams had some great individuals but they played the way Ajax and the Dutch NT played in the 70s with some modifications.

Craig Foster certainly divides opinions and does like to draw attention to himself as a refugee advocate and now being on the committee for establishing a republic .Nothing wrong with those causes but he does make sure his name is to the forefront.However he does bring drive and enthusiasm to whatever cause he is involved with.His football pontifications did shit me at times but he certainly is a strong advocate for our game.

Squad announced tomorrow. Tips anyone?

I’m ready for Arnie to disappoint me.

Koul in
Cummings out. Won’t drop those in front of him.

I think you are right. Also expecting Goodwin.

Taggart has done bugger all in the NT for ages but sure lets take him.

 

[sydmariner]

 

[booney]

I would be disappointed if Taggart is picked-Cummings would have to ahead of him.Kuol must go if Arnie is any judge of a footballer.

As an aside have just watched the 2006 WC game Australia v Croatia.What a crazy game-plenty of yellow and red cards( and Simunic 3 yellows before he was sent off!),a goalkeeping error by Kalac gifting them a goal,lots of physicality from both sides and Kewell's equaliser( he probably was offside).Also I had forgotten that Luka Modric came on as a late sub for them-what a great career he has had.
