Yeah strange that they would want us to play to what they think are our strengths.

Or are you in the Craig Foster camp (which wouldn't surprise me).

Don't care how they play as long as the score board stays half credible....

Fossie and co want us to treat the world cup as a training exercise.

It says a lot for him and his followers that he believes we should treat the pinnacle sporting event in the world with such disdain.

Kennedy & Cahill are both better coming off the bench in the last 30 minutes than playing from the start.

Neither has managed to play 90 minutes and be all that effective in the last four years.

They are not suited to Posta's style of Football anyway.

Agreed, Leckie's raw pace and power is probably the best option in that role as the lone striker.

It's scary how good he could become if his game was polished a bit more.

I noticed he scored again for his club last night, so he appears to be developing his game quite well.
