Paddy kind of indicated in the post game interview he wasn’t so much as injured as a tactical sub. I’ve chosen not to believe him. As for Jamo that “knock” must have been from a friggin truck. Calves and older guys are never a good mix. Always better to be cautious. Nabbout could go either way id suspect but making sure the mongs are guessing is prob a good tactic imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neio Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 I would be staggered if Nabbout played this week, has already done a hammy this season and it would be silly to risk him in a game that we should have covered without him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously all I had was “knock”, which could mean anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torn Asunder Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 From the club, 12/4/22 Aiden O’Neill suffered a broken metatarsal in the first half of last week’s clash against Sydney FC and is unlikely to play again this season. Scans have confirmed a Grade 2 hamstring strain for Florin Berenguer after he was subbed out in the first half of Saturday’s Melbourne Derby and he is expected to miss 4-5 weeks. Adding further to the headaches in midfield, Connor Metcalfe tested positive to COVID-19 upon arrival and is currently in hotel isolation in Bangkok In good news, Scott Galloway is tracking well in his rehab from his hamstring injury and is likely to join the squad next week. Griffiths did the job last season as our DM and has the physicality to control the midfield ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he and the others "should" cope relatively speaking , its the next 2 or 3 games that I reackon will be testing. My greatest fear will be the changes will be down to reactive moves as opposed to pre planned contingencies.

Problaby to due fatigue towards the end of the match, perhaps it was unnessecary to move him into midfield with the coverage of Endoh on the bench. oh wait..... haha. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been particularly poor this season I reckon. I mean we were relying on the commentator or tell us the coach was sick and also that he was/or had been in hospital. Now if the media knows those basics surely you can tell the fans? The heart era we were terrible at this, we got better but now we’ve reverted back to silence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering it was in NSW this was a good effort by Nabbout to be there. You'd think he's therefore likely to be with us next year if his season's done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a rebuild and IMO it's best to start now, with a decent manager/coach, with the aim of getting us back at the top in 2-3 season's time. I also think that the fans will return if they can see a plan to give them hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanty Posted Monday at 03:09 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 03:09 AM City said in the team news a few weeks back that Nabbout underwent surgery so won't be back until pre season, even though he is off contract I can see him re-signing. Tilio could be in contention against WU and Galloway likely out for the season as well.

Only as a bench player and if he was to take a fair pay cut...otherwise it would make more sense to push Mazzeo as the bench winger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just prolong the agony and the Academy graduates will go elsewhere.... City is crazy if it just keeps producing players for other clubs - we don't get anything for them.

Maclaren's recent comments suggest an expectation that Caputo will be leading the line much more regularly next year. Suspect we'll see more of Mazzeo too. Plus we've had a gun young striker sidelined all season that I'm keen to see. Be interesting to see how this all pans out in the next couple of months. We'll need to thread the needle in keeping some experience and continuity, but also doing better than we sometimes have in promoting youth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
