Hey Christian, Langerak played pretty much the whole season for Stuttgart last season and was actually selected for his form over Ryan for the Socceroos because he wasn’t getting game time.
He definitely isn’t one that isn’t sitting on the bench.
Lack of Aussies playing regular football overseas a cause for concern
