    So Partaluu is avaialble according to A League Hub having left Bengaluru FC in India. 

    Bengaluru FC and Australian midfielder Erik Paartalu have parted ways by mutual consent. [

    ]

    Any body else think he could be a decent Defensive mid CB backup option? he re tweeted and commented on one of his goal memories from 2014 City posted on twitter

    Do we have room or is he affordable?

     

    Imo think he will stay in India

    So basically we have replaced Noone with Leckie and Luna with Pucciarelli so hopefully both as good but probably better. 

    Big bonus gives us a visa spot still available, I'm hoping they hold off and only use it in January if we cop massive injury/form issues. 

    As with last season we've done our business early and now have time to work. 

    Couldn't ask for more.

    Have 2 visa spots up our sleeve which is handy squad is done. Like these comments from Petrillo 

    “We took our time in making this choice, not only were we looking for these attributes, we also want a player with the ability and desire to work hard in and out of possession, which is a vital for the way we play football.

    The wording isn't clear as to whether that's "$300,000 - $600,000" each or whether that's for the two of them (if there are two). As it is, IMO it's the latter.

    In the end though, the clubs are the employers, and they've got to be prepared to pay those kinds of wages. I would think not all will be.

    It’s 300-600 each per player. So max 600k per player. And the other 2 are unlimited

    Collective Bargaining Agreement confirmed 

     “the introduction of up to two 'Designated Players' allowing clubs to invest between $300,000 and $600,000 in players whose salaries will be excluded from the A-League Salary Cap, while maintaining other exemptions such as Marquee Players;”
     

    so way I see it 2 unlimited marquees and 2 DP between 300-600k

    No just chatting and he goes 'You'll be excited to know we have an international signing coming on' so I said I'd heard it was a German midfielder. He said yeah right position but not German but exciting. Then I said to replace Luna and he confirmed. We then had a chat about Luna where he confirmed was being paid big bucks to go to Kerala and it was his last opportunity at a big pay check as he's just turned 30. City wanted to keep him because as he said he was a quality person but didn't stand in his way.

    Ben Arfa or Nasri and we go undefeated this year

    Jmac isn’t in the Socceroos squad for September neither is Good - not selected or declined like Leckie? Or overseas players only?

    Declined like Leckie no Aleague players in because they don’t want to do the 2 week quarantine

    @CityBoyz Are you saying that there definitely is a "Designated Player" now? What are the rules around that? I know it's been talked about before but I hadn't seen it in writing before your post.

    Very interesting.

    Well that’s what I’ve heard and is backed up by CCM CEO basically saying 3 marquees. 
     

    theirs a technical difference but in essence it’s 3 marquees.

    Didn't actually say a big name marquee, and when you think about it, Leckie and Maclaren would probably be our two outside the cap. Hence, probably more likely Rzatkowski or Eisfeld, I think both Baumjohann and Hunt would be too old for us. Unless of course it's not a German at all

    Apparently according to CCM CEO their is 2 marquees and 1 DP

    I’m confident there will be a signing within 24hours.

    How can I be so confident given I’m under house arrest?

    @jw1739has updated the squad!

    Here’s a signing. Former  academy player Jordon Hall has re-joined the Club after two seasons for Green Gully
