Andrew Edmonds

Retired a couple days back!

and presumably so, the youth spot would go to Zinni i reckon?

Lambadaridis (think thats how you spell it) must have failed his trial, playing for Brisbane today.

Actually happy with that considering Villa influx hasn't happened, but even once we get Pirlo, the membership tally won't rise that much because of what happened last season. I believe 9-10k is reasonable as a target with Pirlo, FFA cup and if we perform decently throughout the season.

i know its a friendly, but this is the kinda game we need sorensen for.

Dream of coming first of course, but realistically anywhere between 2-4 and I'm happy.

yep.

International match October 8, were theres a good chance he'll be selected, maybe even Franjic.

Mooy big chance in missing round 1.

I always say this whether it be to friends family etc talking about any sport especially soccer, a team will never win with basicallu the same squad, ie victory.. happening to Chelsea now and will happen to Victory, for them, if they dont sign people, highest finish 3-4.

Not saying they wont, but Mooy, Hughes, Franjic, potentially Zullo, Gameiro olyroos, plus how injury prone Franjic is, Zullo bad injuries, and if Mooy or Novillo cop a season ending injury...

Just my opinion.. Finish anywhere in the top 6 to win finals, and what i mentioned ie injuries, international and coherency, yes I would be happy with 1-3.

Yes I want us to end first, but anywhere in the top 3 I'd be happy.. no doubt some of our players will be injury or out on international duty, and finding great coherency, I'd he happy for top 3.

And with Edwards potentially signing... WOW, no excuses this season!

Actually that match we were dominant with that lineup, just unable to convert until Villa scored..

With the curren squad we have (day after Sorensen signs), this will most likely be our matchday team. Sorensen Franjic - Chapman - Hughes - Zullo Paartalu - Mooy - Koren Gameiro - Tuna - Novillo Bench - Tando - Kisnorbo - Germano (considering gets Aus visa) Melling - Williams

Welcome Thomas! Understand that people are disappointed with the signing due to the fact he will occupy a VISA spot, but hey, what he has accomplished is far better than every keeper in the league. Not only will this help on field with defensive organisation and goalkeeping in general, he can also coach Tando and youth goalkeepers, so me, I'm really happy and excited about the signing!

Heard that its a fight to get him fit by round 1... but not confirmed by the club.

Anyone know if Hughes is fit??

Hope not! Would love if we signed him!

Not sure if its City related, but Bozanic in Australia with a deal expected early this week.. could this be the second signing JVS was talking about??

4-3.

3-3.

Going by Melbourne City's snapchat stories, more than 90% of people aren't from our first team.. most left behind for the FFA cup match.
