I wonder what FFA CEO Ben Buckley thinks?
At training the day after the Iraq game. I starting to quiver a little at that word. Iraq.
Doesn't it sound like Iran, just a little, or maybe that's just my twitch.
Anyway I wonder what our CEO Ben Buckley makes of it all.
An open training session today and the Australian players must have been lifted by the amazingly positive support.
We might come bottom of the group in our first Asian Cup tournament. Laughable really if it wasn't football.
Still if we win on Monday and results go our way, ie Iraq win or draw then we're off to Hanoi.
And as Mile Sterjovski said today, "A change of scenary may be just the thing to lift us."
With some defensive stability, we can win. Then we'll play Japan. A big ask on our present form.
Please ask Rob Baan to sort out the defence, or ask Arnie to explain to the nation what the heck he is trying to do with our defence because it is driving me mad. Has been for months.
Imagine if we get out of the group, then sure we're disappointed because, face it,we thought we'd walk it, but we can still progress and then every game is a sudden death.
Come on Australia. What could be better than four more do-or-die games with Aussie pride on the line.
Come on Arnie, sort the defence. Put Mark Milligan in. Michael Thwaite or Michael Beauchamp as well. Shift Emerton up the park. Give Harry a rest. Bring him on later.
Tell Viduka he has 60 minutes and no more, and get him to run like the wind for 60.
Fire up Australia we can still do it.
We were much more mobile yesterday, more offensive. So with an improved defensive performance I think we can win.
I do I really do.
