ANGE Postecoglou had no complaints following the resounding 4-0 win over Oman, but insists his side can still get better.

The Socceroos have now scored eight goals in two games to book their place in the knock-out stages of the Asian Cup, but perhaps the most pleasing aspect is that eight different players have got on the scoresheet.

"I guess it just shows the even contribution," Postecoglou said.

"It's not just the goalscorers. Guys like (Mathew) Leckie, (Massimo) Luongo and (Mark) Bresc didn't get on the scoresheet tonight, but they were always threatening as well.

"From my perspective it's the way we've tried to build this team and give them that belief and confidence that they can play aggressive and attacking football. It all starts with just commitment from everyone.

"No complaints from me, that was a fantastic performance and pleased for the players, they got rewards for all the hard work they've put in."

Postecoglou believes the performance against Oman was a step up from the 4-1 win over Kuwait, but that's what he expected.

"I thought we played really well in that first game. I know people thought Kuwait was maybe the easiest, but as they showed with Korea today they're no pushovers," he said.

"We expect to improve as we go through the tournament. We made three changes tonight and we made some early substitutions, but as you saw the team didn't miss a beat. Some players needed 90 minutes.

"Whatever we've done so far has been good, but we can certainly get better."

Oman coach Paul Le Guen, whose side crashed out of the tournament following the defeat, believes the Socceroos are favourites to win the trophy.

But Postecoglou isn't paying any attention to the pressure the 'favourites' tag might come with.

"I handled everyone writing us off okay, I think I'll handle the hype," he said.

"I've got a real belief in this group of players and the way we're going about things. Instead of being an issue for me what the external view is of us, I still think people underestimate us."
