I'm hoping with Winnie back in the heart of defence, a marked improvement defensively from 2013 playoff games v Mexicans - when he was absent.

If the for and against over these 2 games, is say minus 8 goals or worse - the Hudson should come under some real pressure re his job. There also needs to be a visible improvement in playing style and ability to hold possession for periods.

I was prepared to cut AH some slack for the overall average performance in PNG, because in the end they qualified for Confeds. But he now has a much stronger AWs team on paper (bar say Thomas's continued absence) - so it's time for him to be judged properly.

These the ideal tough games, that are long overdue for Hudson & AWs. Time to perform, I'm actually optimistic they might go okay. Playing like Iceland would do fine!
