bt50 Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Tbh i can only see us signing a periphery player now as i doubt we'll be letting anyone go. I understand why some people dont like Jamo but imo he's still a just above average full back in this league, and thats more than enough to win the league with if youve got quality over the rest of the pitch. God the Roarcelona side had bloody Shane Steffanuto as its LB. Long story short : you wont get a better player for less money. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neio Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Connor O'Toole got released by Brisbane. He is the sort of player we be looking at, can play LB and RB if needed. We don't need a starting 11 player, we need a back up who can play across a couple of positions to give us a little more flexibility Edited January 16, 2020 by neio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Jamo is cheap, you don’t think we can get better player on his wage? It’s all hypothetical as he isn’t going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXCiTyZeNXx Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Idk honestly. Even when I went to the pre season games against Bentleigh Greens, Jamo was getting beaten then. He is worse then what Zullo and Garuccio were in my opinion. I also don't think Jamo should be Captain as 1- a captain shows he can change the game and Jamo doesn't show that most of the time. 2- a captain is a leader and every time he stuffs up, he blames the other players, also he has something against Noone as he never passed to him. As a leader, u need to drop all that vendetta u have towards a player because it's a team game Edited January 16, 2020 by xXCiTyZeNXx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityBoyz Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Dylan Wenzell Halls not getting game time would be a great addition much better than Wales and good backup for JMAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityBoyz Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) Michael Petrillo on FNR said nothing in the pipeline right now but There is room to manoeuvre Edited January 16, 2020 by CityBoyz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IssySG Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 Michael Petrillo was just on Football Nation Radio and when asked if City would sign any other players and he essentially said "we're not categorically saying yes or no, we're always looking but that doesn't mean we'll necessarily sign anyone, but we are looking". Obviously I'm paraphrasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF33 Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 With how the club's social media phrased it today: "The first signing of the January period... (or words to that effect)" I'd put the house on at least one more. They wouldn't have phrased it that way unless something else was cooking. Susaetta's pedigree sells itself. Pointless to imply he's just one of a number of impending recruits if it weren't the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWH has more upside as a player than wales but that’s my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 I think our current challenge is we have a whole lot of “good” players but not too many exceptional ones. No point getting new signings who are anything less than exceptional. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 So the quad list now has Windy as indefinite time. To me thats a clear indication they are going to move him to long term so they can bring in a replacement without affecting the cap. For those who dont know how it works. It can be a like for like replacement ie same salary, visa for visa and the only part that effects the cap is the amount over the injured players salary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mus-28 Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 I get a feeling we'll get Windy to agree to a termination of his contract as I can't see Hendry coming here for half a dozen games and then being unable to get another loan back in Scotland once the transfer window shuts, especially as their is no doubt interest in his services from clubs in the UK.

We could still be in the hunt for top spot (albeit unlikely to get there) if he had been fit and played the entire season to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jovan Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 Very interesting, this kind of mirrors the Aaron Hughes scenario but this time we are actually going to make a change. Both players if fit would have been amazing but bringing in older CBS is a complete lottery. If this transpires then it clearly shows CFG are doing everything possible to remain in the discussion for a possible challenge come finals time. Furthermore to that it also puts a kybosh to the lazy narrative that they don't care, just using Melbourne as farm/ PR vehicle and other similar lines those that dislike us churn out regularly. Very interesting. 🤔🤔🤔 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 I would have preferred an older CB who could organize the defence, thats the issue with the defence an most likely why we signed Windy. 45 minutes ago, kingofhearts said: What a waste of a signing windy has been.
