It was a shit bounce. He wanted to beat the attacker to the ball and then realised at the last second that he was outside the box and couldn't use his hands. Massive f**kfight ensues

Well that was f**king atrocious. I know we want to play a more aggressive style but you can’t run straight through players and if someone passes you a ball, you can’t sit down for a cup of tea and wait for it to arrive. And how does MacLaren get a start? Couldn’t trap a mouse with all the cheese in France

It wasn’t like he was a step outside box though. He was a good 5 metres

Not only is Cahill playing in Indian league but he apparently changed allegiance too. Scored a brace last night

Our reward for losing to Jordan is a knockout game likely against Japan as opposed to lining up against Bahrain or Vietnam

Wow good one. For those playing along at home, Jordan got done in a penalty shootout by the noted soccer powerhouse of Vietnam. That said from Jordan’s opening goal, which was off a bullshit call, they really didn’t deserve to win

And seriously how isn't Giannou starting ahead of McLaren? Especially with Mabil and even Leckie and Kruse cutting around him

The shittest goal to lose to.
And is it any surprise our best chance was ruined by Maclaren. Although I did like him and Giannou as dual strikers

If your strikers are all ordinary why would you go with only one up front? I guess the theory is your attacking midfielders would help out but those merkins are ordinary too.

We had a fair amount of cattle unavailable.

Giannou goes alright and I’d like to see how he’d go next to Nabbout. Ignoring keepers, the problem is our best players (or at least in best 11 players) at the moment IMO are Mooy, Rogic, Luongo (Milligan is ok but seriously how do you play him over Luongo) and Irvine. And it’s very difficult to play 4 central midfielders
