Andrew Nabbout - 5

No shortage of effort but sadly for him he wasn't up to it. He was played out of position as a lone striker in the first two games, where he chased and harassed incessantly for 70 minutes until dislocating his shoulder. Barely created a chance, which isn't good enough for a striker.

Tomi Juric - 4.5

Used twice off the bench to replace Nabbout but underwhelmed, before being handed a start against Peru after the Urawa Reds man's injury. Unfortunately he wasn't unable to have any impact, failing to hold up play adequately or create any goal threat. A pre-tournament knee injury did him no favours. 

Daniel Arzani - 7

Probably one of the biggest positives to come out of this World Cup for Australia was the young winger's ability to make a genuine impact at this level. Used three times off the bench, he was a bundle of energy, forcing top defenders to back away with his youthful adventure, offering excitement for fans who instantly chanted his name. Needs to build up fitness and stamina to play out 90 minutes. 

Jackson Irvine - 5.5

Willing but couldn't get into any of the three games, when used off the bench to replace Tom Rogic in the attacking midfield role. His late runs into the box could work well with Arzani's wide play in the future but they were unable to combine for any chances at the World Cup. Will have learned plenty.

Tim Cahill - 5

Only had the one 40-minute cameo against Peru where he showed plenty of enthusiasm but was unable to create anything of substance. Arguably should've got the nod ahead of Juricj against France or Peru or both given his pedigree in big games.

Bert van Marwijk - 6.5

Leaves the short-term job with just one World Cup point but the team were well and truly competitive and far from disgraced which was a big step forward from Brazil, although the public expected more. Laid out a pragmatic lineup with limited resources but arguably should have mixed up his XI or subs, utilising only 15 players and not giving Luongo or Jamie Maclaren any minutes.
