      I wonder what this means for AP?

      Good ok, he gets more security?
      We qualify, he gets a 10 year contract?
      We do badly, HQ blame the draw and past coach or AP didn't do enough??

        I think the aim is not to embarrass ourselves and look towards to Asian Cup.

          Yep. As strange as it sounds it seems that we are using the World Cup as a warm up for the Asian Cup. I think that's why Schwartzer retired from international football so close to the WC.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            I think every group is the "Group of death" for the Aussies to be honest

                I hope we can keep the damage under control but against some of the top sides in the world in Spain, Netherlands and Chile we are going to struggle if we are not prepared. I'm hoping that we prepare as best we can and come out in these games giving our all. It would be embarrassing losing heavily in the 3 games.

                  England, Italy and Uruguay is a very tricky group for Italy - any team with Lius Suarez in it must be respected, and England have enough quality to trouble anyone on a given day.
                  I would have said the same thing about France in 2002 but they got their backsides handed to them by Senagal and Denmark and crashed out after a draw with Uruguay. Given the problems they had at the last WC nothing is certain for the French.

                  Group D is definitely the 'Group of Death'.
