Tony999 Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 With Franjic and Colazo whipping in those crosses Timmy will no doubt score more goals like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murfy1 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Big credit to him: he delivers when it counts. We don't need him to score every game--we another marquee in Fornaroli who can do that. Also his attitude is first class, and it lifts the team. Hopefully the knock he got in the FFA Cup final is insignificant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Probably going to be an unpopular view...but IMO playing Fornaroli and Cahill in the same team isn't working.

rayv36 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Why we don't play with 2 upfront baffles me. Bruno and Cahill are not AM's they are both strikers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is great at being an ambassador for FFA, being friends with everyone and being the self appointed diplomat/peacemaker. As far as the football is concerned though, I agree - he has contributed little for the season to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playmaker Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Easy solution, play a 4 4 2 so they are both in the box and build the team around them. It's not hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my player of season voting which comes from each week MOTM votes, cahill is the only regular starter that doesn't have a vote yet.

n i k o Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Tim Cahill Facing FFA Phone Fine May have broken anti-corruption laws Just Now Melbourne City megastar Tim Cahill may have run afoul of the Football Federation Australia’s strict anti-corruption protocols when he admitted to using his mobile phone during a match, Fairfax Media has reported. The FFA confirmed they will launch an investigation into Cahill’s conduct after he said he was sending texts to his family during City’s 1-1 draw with Sydney FC last weekend. Cahill was speaking to Fox Sports on Friday night about opposition fans booing him, and said that he had used his phone at half time. "I think the hardest thing for me against Sydney FC, sitting on the bench for 80 minutes, was when your kids are sitting behind you and your nephew and niece," Cahill said. "I think that hit me harder personally because it was verbal abuse and direct. I went into half-time and texted my missus telling her to go home because I had a four-year-old sitting in the crowd." If Cahill’s anecdote is true, it could be considered a breach of the strict ban on use of communication devices between entry to the stadium until after games finish. The FFA confirmed they will investigate the claims and can levy a fine up to $500.https://www.triplem.com.au/sport/horse-racing/news/tim-cahill-facing-ffa-phone-fine/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torn Asunder Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Based on our squad, as others have pointed, a simple 4-4-2 would easily be our best formation. Timmy and Bruno up front. Branda, Brattan, Kilkenny and Fitzy or Kamu across the middle A back 4 of Colazo, Tongyik, Jacobsen and Franjik, with the full backs bombing forward On paper, this squad in this formation is the strongest in the league and would be capable of beating any other team. The CFG formation just doesnt work at the moment based on getting our best players on the park 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha no stress, I can assure you that I'm feeling it too. I personally feel we're simply killing time until JVS gets the boot, he's incapable of getting this team where it needs to be over a 27 game season and beyond. Thank goodness the Cup Final came nice and early before his tactics were found out again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellenic Hero Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 I tell you what, for the big bucks we are paying for Timmy I'm getting frustrated with how: 1: Bruno is clearly playing 2nd fiddle to him. 2:Yeah, he's scored a few goals, but he goes missing for 70-80 mins of most of the matches he plays in, whereas Bruno impacts almost every game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't do a hell of a lot else admittedly, but at least he 'puts himself about' when we don't have the ball, shows a fair bit more cunt than I expected him to when we signed him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend is from Liverpool and an avid Everton man.
