How? He is still on the same wages we are paying him. Salary Cap is the issue

It is the registration window which I think is the issue. Karacic signed for a club in Croatia today.

closes on the 6th in Australia

Are we forgetting who our owners are?

This club has gone to shambles, been announced by Al Nassr but nothing from the club explaining what has happened.

3. Young 2. Antonis 1. Good Talbot 3????

Mauk also isn't a "former socceroo" so would not fit the description anyway

Not sure about that imo, I reckon we are ahead of Mumbai City, and CFG aren't going to abandon the club with us being one of the "Branded" Clubs + there is only so much on field investment we can receive with the salary cap.

Bozanic, James Holland or Hrustic would be my guess

This season is the gift that keeps on giving! Think we can write this season off tbh.

I think some of the players just need good coaching. Not necessarily getting rid of them.

Arslan & Sakhi are class, it's just Vidmar seems to think Sakhi is a traditional 6 where just isn't, more of a deep lying playmaker than anything. Although he is not exactly what we expected Ugarkovic is still the best for that out and out defensive midfielder role.

The issue is, wasn't Ugarkovic meant to be this imposing 6 that we want?

We need to start preparing for next season. Priorities game time for the likes of Talbot, Lopane, Mazzeo, Caputo

We have had the squad to get out of the ACL two campaigns on the run and failed, the first one slightly more excusable because of the conditions but this season was terrible, Rado picked up more points in the ACL with this team than Vidmar did, Vidmar got tactically outclassed in the ACL imo.

He has done well in the ALM but got found out in the ACL. If this club is to go to the next level it needs someone who can do both.

Chance he leaves this window?

Exactly, who knows what happens with the salary cap, can't see them reducing it cause that would just cause an exodus. Think it is more likely they just scrap it and tell clubs to spend what they want, if a club bankrupts themselves, tough luck. Don't overspend more than what you are capable of.

My guess right now is either PK comes back or Dario becomes Head Coach, can't see the club bringing in someone international to be honest.

Hoping we can resign Macca & Nabbout, would be nice if we can pay a transfer fee for Jakolis as well. Unsure on Leckie right now, excellent player but is very injury prone and takes up a marquee slot. My question is why is the club starting to re-sign players permanently when we don't have a manager yet? Unless they just haven't been announced but what if the new manager comes in and has a completely different plan?

Both had long term injuries I believe.
