#2 Australia - Mile Jedinak
Australia will be making its fourth consecutive appearance at the World Cup, but they left it late, qualifying after an intercontinental knock-out game against Honduras. Mile Jedinak scored a hat-trick against Honduras, to ensure that Australia booked their ticket to Russia.
Jedinak is a strong and imposing midfielder, who can control the pace of the game by patrolling the midfield and controlling the pace of the game.
Add to it his presence in the air and his set-piece taking ability, and it's easy to understand why he is Australia's most important player in Russia. Jedinak, along with Mooy, will be a part of a very strong midfield for Australia, which might help tip any game in the Socceroos' favor.
Notable Mention: Aaron Mooy
