There is not much philosophy, the salary cap dictactes. We just don't have any cash left under cap and are turning to younger players like that. I can't remember who mentioned it on the forum, but it was said that Wazza was happy to release Franjic to make a little room.

belaguttman Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Mauk is a player who is really crying out for the right coach. Hopefully we have one and he'll thrive, if not he'll be playing NPL in a few years because he'll burn all his bridges 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Would be more then happy to take mauk back. He is twice the player Malik is (We got screwed badly on that trade) and attitude aside, is a very good player 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fensaddler Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 We definitely got the worse of the swap between Mauk and Malik, for all of Mauk's dubious personality traits. Â But not sure what role Mauk will play in the squad. Â Who would he have to displace to play and/or who will he be playing understudy to?

You would think Caceres was on (relatively) decent money considering he was bought from CCM.   Stefan Mauk could be a great signing under Wazza.  He is certainly on par or potentially better than o'neill and brillante - who anchored the midfield for SFC's title win.  We desperately need some more mobility and youth in midfield to do the donkey work - kilkenny and brattan are a lethargic pair (kilkenny is slow and brattan just doesnt move much) they should be fighting it out for their spot.  Alternately I still think Brattan could be a top class #10 if he got it together.  If we looked at a 4-2-3-1 like Wazza is known to favour ----------------Kilkenny-----------------Mauk ------------------------------Brattan Could work really well..

I'm not sure i think Mauk is definitely on bar or better than O'Neill or Brillante but he definitely is capable at the level. IMO Caceres wouldnt have been on any more than 200k, and i suspect that would be more than enough to get Mauk done given he really only has one decent season to his name and flopped heavily last year in Europe. IMO the midfield will consist of: Kilkenny      Mauk/Brattan        Troisi with Mauk and Brattan both available to rotate in the CAM and/or CDM roles for subs. Arzani, Malik and Genreau also provide midfield cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
