[RossFC]

I'm guessing Australia will come last here?

 

[Fryer Tuck]

It's the tougher group of the two, but you never know with these Confed Cup games.

 

[spookism]

These getting showed on Fox?

Edit: Never mind, stopped being lazy and found out

 

[NUFC Tiger]

I think we'll do well to avoid last (not a troll) but given it's seen a bit of a mickey mouse cup for some of the bigger countries, maybe they'll not take it too seriously and that might give us a chance. They might blood fringe players to see what they can do for example.

Hopefully we can rise to the level of our opponents and play outside of our skin and maybe snag a win.

 

[The City Boyz]

Pretty uninterested in this, much more in the WC Qualifiers. Can't ****in wait for WC next year if we qualify.

Chance for the Russians to road test new stadiums and security measures too. It's been like that since the 2001 edition.

Everyone writes it off but end up paying attention because it's semi-decent football in the offseason and they have nothing better to do.

 

[ioppolo]

No reason we can't at least beat Cameroon.

 

[Hawks1994]

I'm hoping we get to see a couple of new faces in the lineup during the tournament. A really good test to see how we stack up at the moment with some top nations

After Thursday, I'm hoping to see a defense that actually operates

Did last night full you with more confidence?

Did last night full you with more confidence?

For all of about 11 seconds.

 

[FreoRicci]

We ll blood Hrustic, play the youngsters a bit. Really want to give Behich and a better Rb then McGowan a chance. Ange will stick to his back 3 as per usual

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

VAR strikes again.

 

[happy_eagle]

Oh lord 3 at the back again. Hopefully Ange gets over this silly idea before next year

 

[Bostonian]

I'm just here for Maaat Ryannnnn

 

[gaskin]

I'm surprised at how young Germany's squad is. It gives me a bit of hope that we can snatch a win here.

Very little chance
Even though this a German youth side, they still have players from Arsenal, PSG and almost all the rest are playing Bundesliga
Our best player plays in the Scottish league

 

[Aussie_boy]

Well that's just a bit easy

 

[juice t]

The first of eight for the Germans

 

[2006_Eagles]
