OT: Association Football

[Eelementary]

Getting very nervous about the qualifier tonight.
Mooy apparently starting on the bench???

Apparently so.

Wtf is Postecoglou thinking???

Mooy is the only player we have who constantly creates space for his team.

We desperately need to win, so let's bench him???

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He played 1000 minutes last week. We have Rogic and Luongo fresh. Mooy can come on if we need him.

 

[Suitman]

A must win qualifier and you start your best player from the bench?
I don't think so.

Ange said it was a tactical ploy, didnt' say for which side tho

a lot of talk that if we lose it could be his last game in charge

He has always said that as soon as this campaign is over he will relinguish the position.
Whether that is tonight, or in a month's time, or in Russia, remains to be seen.

I guess Ange's thoughts are to get ahead (hopefully 2-0) by half time, then send Mooy one and play him deep.

Seems odd though. Our side isn't too well balanced (and isn't that good).

I can understand that, but with so much at stake, it's a huge gamble.

There have been many momentous decision made on the road from Damascus.

 

[strider]

Great start

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Excellent work Milligan

 

[Suitman]

The f**ker couldn't get Mooy on quick enough when we went 1-0 down.

Very true.

And straight in to the Wanderers job??

 

[Incorrect]

Couldn't agree more...

 

[Suitman]

And straight in to the Wanderers job??

The Wanderers have a coach with a 100% coaching record.
Why change him?

I don't watch a lot of soccer. Tonight's game has reminded me why.

 

[Incorrect]

There's going to be some dogshit teams at next year's World Cup judging by the dross these 2 teams are serving up...

And FIFA want to expand it to 48 teams in 2026 don't they? f**king greedy merkins... Why not just have all 200-odd federations and have it over 3 months....

Good. Don't watch any more either.
It's been an excellent game.
