To be fair, its hard for him to flourish in the Ricky set up. Weemac that is
Exactly. McGlinchey is easily as good, if not better, than many of the creative midfield options I've seen in the Socceroos squad over the last 5 years. But all the skills that make him such a potentially good international player are not prized in Ricki's defensive, non-creative gameplan. He can't defend to save his life and doesn't have much scope to play his natural game when the ball is flying over the top of him.
Jedinak? Milligan? Rogic?
