Poll: Will the Socceroos beat Qatar?

January 30th, 2008 by Eric · 4 Comments

Only seven sleeps left before the Socceroos embark on their World Cup qualification campaign.

Does Pim Verbeek know what he’s doing? Who will he pick from the 39-man squad he named last week? Will Vargas, Archie or Muscat get a run?

It may be the first qualification match, but it’s incredibly important. The Socceroos will be at home, playing against what is arguably their easiest competition, in front of a fanatical crowd at the Telstra Dome. Nothing short of a win will satisfy.

    I dear hope we win. That’s all I can do… It feels like so much hasn’t been done but urgh…

    After watching Joel Griffiths against CC, it’ll be a crime if he doesn’t get a run. At least sub the bloke on in extra time if we’re drawn.

    There is no extra time dude. Only a win will do because it only gets harder from here. I have my ticket and I can’t wait. Archie will get a big pop from the crowd if he comes on. Looks like Kisnorbo has been ignored. I don’t think its fair that he has been made scapegoat for the poor Asian cup. They were all terrible including Lucas Neil.

    astri… kisnorbo was stand out bad… from all the bad plays he managed to make himself look like the fool, i have no porblem with kisnorbo being overlooked.. maybe vargas can take his place…

    is vargas any chance? he has been very vocal the last week or so during camps?
