Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.

If you listen to Socceroos legend Mark Schwarzer, there's nothing Australian footballers love more than being written off. The Australian champion joins the show to explain why American pundits have given the Socceroos squad "unbelievably good ammunition" for their World Cup campaign. Schwarzer also explains why Mo Toure will start and Nestory Irankunda will likely be an impact player, outlines why Jordy Bos is about to make his name and provides context around the Cristian Volpato selection. 

Featured: Mark Schwarzer, Socceroos legend.
