Re: Preview AUFC vs MV 17/1/20

Its really interesting how divided we are on verbeeks comments. Professionally I have worked under managers on both ends of the spectrum and I prefer the brutally up front and honest variant, while conversely I have seen perfectly capable employees capitulate under such a manager. Given the manager...

Re: Who's signed for next season

So Boland has just undergone surgery in his knee which hasn't recovered properly. 4-6 weeks which takes us to January. From a personal perspective I hope he recovers well and gets back to playing soon, but for AU we need to replace him in January. Visa spots are just too valuable, particularly when...

Re: Adelaide United v Melbourne Victory Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Saturday was such a big statement, everything Bruce and Van der Pol have put into place was vindicated and we really looked dominant. Halloran, Lia and Blackwood are the only non-SA Aussies in this squad, mental and unsure if there has ever been such a local squad in A-League history. IMO we are one...

Re: Song for D’Arrigo?

He called his band mate a "ginger crunt"

We need a new song.
It was actually somebody in the crowd, don't think you get his sense of humour much mate.

Re: CC Mariners v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Maria was so high up the pitch in that first half he is going to need to be very fit to get back into position every time. I do like the pressure Verbeek is putting on him though

Re: Preview: Giant Sauce Bottles v AUFC

Why is Troisi even finding himself at DM? That's not his position at all. I don't think he ever was. Boland was injured, D'Arrigo on international duty and we were facing the Fowler led Brisbane. I suspect Verbeek figured, correctly, that Brisbane would sit deep and hence he dispensed with midfield...

Re: Preview: Giant Sauce Bottles v AUFC

I think we actually missed D'Arrigo quite a bit last week, I was shocked when Troisi was given MOTM last week - thought he was bang average in the first half. Second half he moved a bit further forward and obviously his assist was class but I did not like him playing the DM role at all. For me a mid...

Re: 19/20 Predictions

Im predicting a season that largely mirrors Gombaus first campaign.

A rough start to the season
Gertjan will be entertaining if not controversial
We will make some huge improvements 8 weeks in and be in the mix at the end of the season.
Our youth will surprise us
I agree with this

Re: Who's signed for next season

Is anyone else suddenly excited for the new season, I think we actually have a decent squad, particularly if Opseth finally proves to be our quality #9. This time though we are not relying solely on him because we have Toure coming through and Blackwood too. Izzo Strain-Elsey-Jakobsen-Kitto Boland-M...

Re: Who's signed for next season

Looking at our squad, I think we should be looking at recruiting a number 10, DM, left back and striker to start. Then adding depth in defence with a left sided LB who can also play CB as well as an out and out CB. I read today that former Victory LB Adama Traore is a free agent, that would be an am...

Re: FFA Cup Final: AUFC v Sydney

I wonder how much this win will boost our attendances - I think the level of atmosphere on Tuesday at a packed stadium where we were successful in an entertaining match hopefully should help. Ticket prices being decreased should be helping too. So far we have had Round 1: Friday Night against Sydney...
