For sure Old will be disappointed. But gutted? Not so sure.
He has all the excitment of being in a new country, signed for a club in one of the world's top 5 leagues, getting to grips with a new language & culture. It's likely all pretty exciting, a bit of a daily dream/blur. He won't have time to dwell on missing the Olympics. And yeah playing at a World Cup will heavily mitigate missing out this time.
Bigger blow for Riley Bidois, as yeah could have been his shop window. Bayliss gets his chance. But fingers crossed Randall is fit, preferable he starts.
Though Bazeley may start a bit more defensive in this game. Conchie coming into midfield?? The US will be a level up from Guinea & they sounded a bit unlucky against the French. Hit the post 1-2 times first half. The Americans also need to chase the win after losing against France.
