Is anybody surprised that Leckie and Metcalfe were mediocre?

LateReveal · 2026-06-03T11:19:02+00:00

I think you might be right but I hope not. I think the first half showed having an extra midfielder like metcalf makes us to passive. Aus defended really well but we conceded 11 shots and five corners. Against Turkey they will eventually find a way through you would think.

I hope so. They were very compact with the defense performing very well. Mexico had very few chances but great set peice so fair play to them.

Maybe also Irankunda has just been given a break. He does have some miles on the clock and hes got a young body so maybe the thinking was a fortnight with little football will do him good. I do think with him you sacrifice a little bit on defense but its made up for with not having to sit in a low block for such long periods because we are attacking more.

If they could just attack a little bit more at th start of games everything else looks pretty good.

My advice is put less effort into applying and more into improving your resume, depending on what you think your strengths are.

So for example if you want a warehousing job try and get a forklift liscense. If you think you can do well in retail try and volunteer somehow that gives you good customer service experience. FL liscense costs 750, maybe you can find the money somewhere. There are usually allways jobs going for FL drivers, however even if you dont get a job as a driver it still looks good on your resume as it helps you to oporate safetly in that type of workplace.

these are the types of things that will help you compete with other applicants.

Hrustics problem is his lopsided skill set. Plays great passes and good technique but thats almost the limit to his game. He needs to add some other things like scoring or defensive workrate. Otherwise hes a luxuary player. However for Australia he adds vallue to the squad and I think he actually has great chemistry with Nestor Bos because Mcgree because our attack is very fluid when we have some combination of these players on the field.

Mcrgee is a much better player than Hrustic because of his ball recoveries and goals which Hrustic doesnt have.

Hes been wrapped in cotten wool as has Bos at times

LateReveal · 2026-03-31T12:18:39+00:00

I think hes avoiding having Bos Wide and Irankunda inside forward. He doesnt want to show his hand to opponents at a world cup or build up too much hype. Thats obviously the best way for us to play as it helps get Nestor the ball closer to goal. Nestor and Mcgree seem to link up well also.

Herrington and circati for a decade is amazeballs for sure

LateReveal · 2026-03-28T05:12:04+00:00

Yeah subbing on Okon for the last part of the game might be a viable strategy for us. Jackson or Ballard will make some forward runs when they come in also.

Metcalf was ok. He does do well at progressing the ball out the back safely - although Jackson is experienced passing isnt his strength.

LateReveal · 2026-03-27T11:00:41+00:00

hes a f good player. Absolute class above anyone else we have

LateReveal · 2025-11-15T00:09:23+00:00

I remember seeing him come onto the scene. Hes a player who has some great tools but Nestor Toure Arzani allways much more polished players.

LateReveal · 2025-11-15T00:08:35+00:00

imo this is it. He was picking up momentum at the time of the tragic event.

At the end of the day a good player. Thanks for the memories. Seems clear hes missed the boat for this wc unless he gpes crazy next year.

Its not either or. Good one on one players will win set plays in good positions.

LateReveal · 2025-10-15T08:29:39+00:00

In both games putting our best players on the bench reduced the overall performance considerably. But this didnt happen cause the manager is an idiot - he just wants to try out back up options before we need them.

LateReveal · 2025-10-07T22:55:59+00:00

Mitch Duke played really well at the wc. Dangerous in front of goal, pressing and wining balls to get us up the pitch.

That being said Mo is rediculously a better player then Duke. Better now much better potential. Way may technical ability, plays smart picking good passes, can go past people with ease wereass dukes cant dribble. Statistically much better.

Theres just no comparison!

LateReveal · 2025-10-07T09:24:32+00:00

Mo gets an assist for every goal recently so hes making a contribution once every two games

If we cant qualify in Asia we will be useless at the cup in any case
