Pretty formidable squad, especially up top with Silas, who has been on form in Stuttgart's surprise start to the Bundesliga season and is absolutely rapid (I'd say their best player right now), Elia playing well in the Champions League/Swiss Super League and new recruit Banza who leads the goal-scoring in Portugal. Certainly better than the Socceroos in the attacking department, and arguably across the park apart from in goal. Will be by no means an 'easy' game to use to prepare to play against Australia.
