I don't really know anything about Arslan tbh, But going by his transfermarkt he has played CD, DM, MC so that's my reasoning behind it. So if either of you have seen him play, you know a lot more about him than I do. I'd be really interested in how you both think we'll line up with the squad we have at the moment.

You could be right, we will see when the longest off season in the world ends and the season starts.

Bailey is off to Singapore. I wouldn't be surprised if Rogic retires. Karacic would be an amazing signing, would he come here, or try to get a contract in Europe? The others are interesting and are possibilities, nice thinking out of the box.

I actually think Ugarkovic would be a good replacement for Berisha, he's not really the best defensively, but does that middle role pretty well. I have a good feeling about Arslan, no real reason other than his pedigree, if he's good enough he's old enough and that applies to the oldies as well. I think he will be the O'Neil replacement, but we will have to wait and see.

I could see maybe 2 more signings, another foreigner and an Aussie from somewhere and I can see us promoting a couple of youngens to take a bit more of a role and being nurtured and introduced like Tilio was when he came in. Caputo for sure who looks quite good to me and someone else, maybe someone can make a suggestion or one of the new signings, but we need a bit of an injection of youth or we will be dads army come the start of the season.

yeah I just found the story 😪

I was going to say we should sign Angus Thurgate, but just saw he has signed for WU, really bummed by that.

Young has been the best keeper in the league for years, leads from the back and seems to like metel music, pretty happy tbh. Antonis had a falling out, but has been at some good clubs so he has talent, maybe we can rekindle some passion again and have him firing. Probably cheap and a 50/50 gamble as to what we will get, but if it goes well it will be a great signing. Ugarkovic is not a bad pick up, we could do a lot worse, he had a purple patch with the jets that year Riley was there and has kind of dropped off a bit, hopefully he can perform for us, our system of play probably suits him. At 28 there's probably not much growth there, he is the finished product. I'm pretty happy with the foreign signings, don't know much about them, but on paper they seem to be great gets.

It's certainly going to be a totally different City, there's no way to predict how we will go, but overall I'm happy with what has happened so far.

oh lol

Ahh....that's why I don't remember him playing, on that it doesn't seem so great now.

Hanoi could be tricky, we have seen their national team play us, we should be expected to beat the rest comfortably though.

Not far from where I live, so I'll probably make it work permitting.

I honestly can't remember him playing I mean Suwon Bluewings bought him so he can't be that bad, he may come good and as a squadie from last seasons WSW isn't a bad pick up.

He only started for Colorado Rapids 3 times last season loosing all three games with a 6.1 rating. https://www.whoscored.com/Players/246375/Show/Alex-Gersbach I just don't like one footed players tbh, he only has a right leg because he needs to stand on it to kick the ball, it also wouldn't suit our way of playing as our FB are expected to come inside at times. I'd be very disappointed unless we thought we could make him a CB.

Please not Gersbach, he's such a limited player and that's why he never even made the first team in Iceland, Galloway is twice the player and is good with both feet. I wouldn't mind bringing back Behich though, his Dundee had a torrid time, but I'm sure he would be good for another year.

Good luck to him, Rogic did well there and I think he will do well against Scottish competition, it would be great if he got minutes in Europe. Good thing is Rodgers wanted him and wasn't palmed off onto him like Arzani.

Could be, now I'don't know lol, I just remember a few complaining a few days back I think on youtube of all places.

I have no idea tbh, I've just seen a few people comment on it, I assumed he was at their academy.

Yeah and some good fee's especially with us. I've seen a few posts now with CCM fans unhappy we have Zane, they really thought he would be starting for them next season.

Caputo has been playing in that U18 tournament in Portugal, hopefully he gets a few more minutes in the next season.

If there was a case for inside fullbacks, the first half showed it, VDV and Leckie could have created overloads in those wide areas, or created the interplay that we saw earlier with Rado that has kind of disappeared.

Off the body onto the arm, it can't be handball iirc.

Nabout has had a resurgence with Rado, he was injured there for a time and performed badly, but he just always seemed so angry and unhappy under Kisnorbo, I'm less worried about him than Nuno for sure.
