Apparently him, Melling, Clisby and Garrucio weren't well loved in the dressing room and had a bit of a clique. I don't have any specific details but just know that people weren't too upset to see him go, the ferocious reaction to his antics in the game against us were further evidence of that really.

Dylan Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Could explain why we havent made a move yet. Perhaps there are discussions with the FFA and given our chairman is apart of that owners group they are probably waiting to see what concessions are made before sending out contracts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffplz Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 He still seems like a pissy phaggot, his main complaint about his season at NEC was that he didn't want to improve on what the coach advised because "he wasnt that type of player", therefore didnt get picked for the rest of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playmaker Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 6 hours ago, PORCHO said: can't wait for the coach to finally be announced and for us to finally start picking up players. We need min 7-8 players a few of which will be starters so we need to get cracking... Other then Bonavacia(would be an expensive pickup) and Izzo, I can't say we've really missed out on anyone, but the longer we wait the harder it gets. And it would be good to have the starting team mostly sorted before pre season. Not many stand outs tbh. Barbarouses back to the tards is the only other quality player we could have considered. Will be interesting where we will get our CDs from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bt50 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I'd be wrapped if we got him. A true number 10, proven at the level and current Socceroo. Leaves room for another visa spot within the cap, which we've had a good strike rate with under City imo. Also the salt. The sweet, sweet salt that would emit from Mongs fans would be glorious.

If he was to play wide is he better than Fernando Fitzy or Kamau not sure. I am hoping our Marquee (that's the only way Troisi would sign) would be of a higher standard. Not bagging Troisi but if he is not good enough for the Tards then I don't want their leftovers. Get some unknown quality South American pay him 1.5million and we will smash it.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also proven at the level, whereas anyone else coming in has to adapt and i guess even prove they're good enough. We definitely dont need another Colazo. I definitely disagree he's leftovers too; bloke just made team of the season and is a current Socceroo. 1 minute ago, n i k o said: It's a shame that the tards have already resigned to the fact of him going and don't want him anymore.

He will most likely end up at Mariners or Jets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embee Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 According to a number of journos the Tards claim they've made him around 3 contract offers, some on marquee money, so I definitely think they want to keep him. I'm a fan of Troisi of a player and he's not as much of a risk as far as marquee's go given that he's a proven performer in this league. Plus, as @bt50Â said, it could really be our Tevez moment, "Welcome to Melbourne, James". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with that is there are reports the tards have offered contracts while he's come out and said the club haven't offered him anything... My thoughts either way... We'd finally get a much needed #10, plus he's better then what we have. I just feel like we could/should get much better out of a marquee... a proper #10, preferably one that's played at a top league, with some commercial value, can hit the ball, has bleached hair... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could go get a player from overseas with pedigree but there's every chance their performances don't carry over into this league. Plus, I like the idea of us having a team stacked with Australian talent, especially current/former Socceroos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
