Australia V USA

[RADINHO]

Its a shame Australia lost 3-1 they dominated all the stats except the one that counts, the goals And in the second half we had 3 good shots against that fat goalie, Hanhemanh.

 

[Jerem]

did the scoreline represent the reality?

I didnt watch the game. I read the US were sharper around the park in the first half. The aussies dominated in the second.

Everyone is questioning moore being in the side. Grella has also been questioned. My confidence is starting to drop. Maybe we need Beachamp to give us more pace in the back although this isnt the sort of change we should be initiating this late in the peace.

 

[dibo]

swap out grella for valeri, garcia for jedinak (with culina shifting to wide right and jedi sitting in DM) and moore for meggsy and I think we're looking a little better. when kewell's fit we'll look different too, so the world cup in 2011 is looking great.

what's that? oh...

Luring the Germans into a false sense of security.....well done lads

 

[goingtoadisco]

keeping em guessing by swapping to a 442.

 

[Wombat]

Only watched the game until half time and the Yanks should have been 5-2 up.

We played too deep and midfield needs shuffling.

See what i mean about Grella?

Without Harry up front we have no chance.

2nd goal shows what happens when u dont play specialist Full-backs



On positives we created some chances and battled hard and Bresciano and Cahill are finding form again. Also USA are a decent team and could easily make QF.

He scores with his left

That boy Dempsey
Makes Pimball look shite.

Brad Jones' young son (4 years old) has been diagnosed with leukaemia - the entire squad was told a few hours before the game and many were said to be in shock.  Possible explanation of the distracted performance and not-caring-at-all-about-losing comments post game??

Poor little dude. 

 

[FFC Mariner]

Puts football into perspective - hope he is alright

FIFa have approved a replacement - Eugene I expect

Apparently Holman played against Iraq in 2007 and we lost.

 

[goingtoadisco]

Was Holman that played in that game not goalman
