Pim Verbeek used to say the players have to 'show' themselves. Mile Jedinak kick started his Socceroo career by showing himself at an A League training squad; Verbeek was visibly impressed, and very surprised by what he saw from Mile. And Mile (that is EPL player Mile ) hasn't looked back since.
The scant reports from training while in Australia suggested that Duke was the one to show himself; Sainsbury make take a little longer to be comfortable at that level. What it does mean is that we can look forward to a fired up confident Dukey, and a Sainsbury motivated to prove himself an even better player than last year.
Trent Sainsbury playing even better than he did last year, he'd be a shoe-in for a Socceroos spot if that is the case.
Also fired up Dukey, return of Matty Simon and Dee-Mac coming back match fit and hopefully in good form, it'll be goals galore.
