I was concerned about Nissy getting crushed in the 4th goal celebration.
Huge performance improvement

Victory fan front and centre complaining about Bruno not being put on. He debuted two players tonight. One of those debutants set up a goal for another recent debutant. Arnie is the one who selected Bruno and debuted him for Australia in the first place. It’s not all about you and your players.
And they accuse him of being selfish. We won 5-nil, marked improvement from Parra, and he’s complaining. Maybe this is the issue with men’s national football here, people never satisfied.
Good performance, good win. Thrilled for Yazbek and Iredale.
Means we’ve sorted first place in the group with 2 games to go.

Would presumably mean the Pal-Leb game(s) will decide 2nd.
And secured qualification to the next installment of the Middle Eastern Cup…er, Asian Cup.

Only 5-0? And it took two minutes to score the first goal?
Pathetic. ARNOLD OUT, obviously.
I predict this is the kind of thing on the Facebook tonight.

I don’t understand your complaint.
You started off by addressing the fact he’s a Melbourne Victory supporter.
Firstly, aside from bringing general shame to the Australian football community (and that’s when they’re not protesting by launching a pitch invasions, throwing buckets full of sand at goalkeepers and generally running amok, causing chaos, havoc and strife), whinging and moaning is all they fucking do. Irregardless of the national team, club etc.
Remember, he’s Victorian. He comes from a backwater cesspit that makes the bombed out ruins of a Mogadishu market look like a more appealing residence.
Whinging and moaning is just a part of his culture. He can’t help that he lives in a place where their waterfront attraction is esentially an open sewer. He’s subjected to a living situation where you order your beer in a pot. They have nothing to boast about except their coffee culture which is adequate - at best (and thats when your coffee comes in a singular cup, and not in several containers where you’re expected to construct it all yourself out of a science beaker).
Just sympathise with him. Remember, Canberra has a better public transportation system then Melbourne as well, so he probably caught a bus that was on-time, and didn’t have to rely on some noisy rattle box that dings its stupid bell every 5 seconds because some hipster who just stumbled out of a piss smelling, graffiti filled laneway is trying to assemble his coffee order that came in an IKEA flat-pack on the tram tracks.
In the morning, that poor sod has to return to Melbourne and he’s just come to the realization that he has to leave the urbanised paradise that is Canberra, comparred to the vile cesspit of humanity that is Melbourne.

My complaint is that he’s at an international complaining about his team’s player not playing, despite the fact that the subs were good and successful on the night. I don’t understand his complaint other than wanting his own club’s player on, to the detriment of others like Iredale and Yazbek.
I’m sick of baseless complaints about Arnold from petty rivals, and I’m going to point it out. When Ange called up our players and didn’t play them, I got frustrated, but didn’t call for his head. If I was that extremely dissatisfied with the whole national setup, I wouldn’t go to Roos games.
Victory fans can shove it.
This is the same supporter base who chants North Terrace chants at Roos games. It doesn’t belong at internationals.
I’m not apologising for that, no do I need you understanding. I travelled down for this, I get to post what I want about it. 
Didn’t expect a lengthy diatribe against my momentary overhearing of someone.
Edit I heard him mumble something about Sydney FC. The idea that Arnie’s favouring Sydney FC for selection is ridiculous when you consider our only player on his squad was an injury replacement who didn’t even come on. Tony G gets lots of criticism but I don’t see this club vs. club tribal bullshit at Tillies games. I’m also club > country, but at Australian internationals I support Australia.
You could’ve just said “Victory fan being a fuckwit at the Socceroos game” and saved yourself a whole lot of typing. We’ve all seen how they behave

He’s a Victorian.
He’s got a chip on his shoulder the size of a bomb crater.
He’ll whinge no matter fucking what. Fall & Rolli could have played 89 of the 90 minutes, bagged a hat-trick, gotten a brace of assists, won player of the match, and he’d still bang on, bitch and moan about the fact he only played 89 minutes and not the full 90. Even though it probably would have taken him longer to get the silly plastic cap off his powerade bottle than minutes remaining in the game.
Victorians football fans whinging trivial bullshit about a Sydney or New South Welshman is going to happen irregardless of who the manager is.
Hell, there could have been not a single ex-Sydney FC employee past or present on the field or bench, but he’d still have a crack if one of the players even contemplated the idea of playing or representing us at youth level.
Wasting time and emotional energy over the views and opinions of Victorians is like arguing with a toddler.
