Aussie players showing lack of respect?

Post by Googes »

Australia's very disapointing performance against Iraq has raised eye brows.
At the moment you can't just blame a coach when he says a lot of his players don't want to be playing at the tournment or basically don't want to be there. So anyone know who the players Arnold are talking about.

Also a hint for next game againt Thailand, expect Carle, Carney, Milligan, Thompson to be on the field with more little known others with the big names facing the chop.

The reason why is that 'Arnold is not happy with his stars'.

Arnold isn't happy with himself.

He new he was under pressure coming into this tournament.

The guy has cracked.

Coming out and saying " Who Cares " isn't good for him nor the FFA.

And turning the Criticism onto the players is a easy option. That takes the publicity off him. There not gonna sack the players there gonna sack the coach.

The lack of respect started after they lost to Italy in the World Cup. Players like Cahill, Neill, Aloisi & Schwarzer mouthing off they should have won and Italians are divers etc....

The Socceroos need to learn how to crawl before they can walk.

The Asians have taught them a lesson so far.

hope there are massive changes to the squad.
drop grella, undicaplined and playing crap replace with valeri play beauchamp and even milligan at least they will be playing for something(staking a claim in the 1st team and or furthering careers) the players that are in a good club position and are established obviously dont think its worth playin for(excluding holman who is playin cabernet and isnt established yet) so give the guys with somethin to fight for a go. whats the worst that will happen?we wont make it passed the group :cry: not lookin good as it is
