Socceroos squad v Wales has been announced and somewhat dishearteningly to me - given his recent
performances, Bristol City's Neil Kilkenny has grabbed a place in an 18 man squad.
In a 32 World Cup possible squad maybe - but the final 18!
Kilkenny hasn't done nearly enough in my view to keep a Socceroos place after some rather shaky
performances in the Asian Cup and recent friendlies.
Mitchell Langerak, Mustifa Amini and Dylan Tombides.
All three are at top German or strong English Clubs - Langarek is proven as a keeper having played
in the A-League and in the Asian Champions League and in Germany with Dortmund he can surely only
improve and challenge Adam Federici in years to come for the Soccerooos spot.
Aussies found the game a little more meaningful against Serbia than the run out against the
Kiwis.
Michael Zullo was tested and showed he has a lot to learn but still showed enough to get some more
opportunities.
Adam Federici and Brett Holman were both outstanding against top opposition and Serbia were a class
outfit - recently beaten by South Korea it should be noted despite missing 4 or 5 key players.
The Socceroos young guns stepped up to defeat NZ 3-0 yesterday. Despite the usual whingeing from
many fans about the play there was plenty for me to like about Holger's team performance.
Particularly the crisp passing and pacy interchange in the final third. We don't often get to see
it in the Green and Gold - and Josh K was on the field too, who would have thought!
