Looming as the man able to spark the Socceroos against deep-lying defences at the Asian Cup, ambitious attacker Riley McGree insists he is fit and ready to start against Syria.
McGree, who recently returned from a foot injury, came off the bench against India, then went on a brilliant run and delivered a perfect assist for Jordy Bos to score.
His speed and creativity could be just the ticket for the Socceroos to crack open Syria's defence and seal progression to the round of 16 in Qatar.
