Heart_fan Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) How long is Hoff signed for? Given that he is becoming a back-up option, he may be versitile in where he can play but hes a master of none. Its unfortunately not looking too good for him when the contract expires I would say, however he has been a very lucky guy to get as far as he has up to this time Edited March 3, 2015 by Heart_fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attack11 Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Massive next 3 games for us, this will tell the story for players coming out of contract and the coaching staff to see if they can get the team performing and winning on a consistent bases especially since we had a great win against Adelaide last week. Listening to 1116 SEN comments have been made that Melbourne City need to get 9pts from our next 3 games against "so called weaker opposition" although 7pts would be the minimum.. I agree with those comments, its time to stop fucking around and start to separate the contenders from the pretenders and to see which players really want to be apart of the Melbourne City Football Club.

That's bad if we can't have fringe players or players coming back from injury playing in the youth league, then it's just based on who jvs thinks is training well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 Williams has to start this week... just hoping that we dont sink into our normal blue tongue performances where we go down literally without a whimper I'm not so sure Williams has to start. There is a strong argument to bring him on against tiring defenders. Watching Guus Hiddink manage taught me the value of placing a player "who is good enough to start" on the bench as a weapon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofhearts Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I expect the French lad to come off the bench in this one. Reserving my judgement until I've seen a bit of him I'd start him tbh.

SF33 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Will be interesting to see if we base ourselves in sydney for the three games rather than flying back and forth Agreed, but I think that the (hardly challenging) Sydney-Melbourne flights, plus the much better facilities that we'll presumably have at our disposal in Melbourne to aid recovery, plus the sleeping in your own bed factor means that they wouldn't stay up the whole time. Perhaps after the mid-week game. It's amazing that we just can't seem to beat them. The match at AAMI Park this season against them just summed up too well how we just seem to fall apart against them. Looking at their list each year, they should be easy beats but for some reason they can grind out results. Even this year they have been terrible for most of it yet they aren't that far behind. Going to predict another fall from grave for us this week. We struggle to gain momentum at the best of times, but against CCM our past results seem to sum up our chances in this one.. Not that high . Probably only that surprising this year, to be honest. In all of the 'Heart' years, Central Coast was a better team than us, by some margin.

Its unfortunately not looking too good for him when the contract expires I would say, however he has been a very lucky guy to get as far as he has up to this time He's a better footballer than when we resigned him last time. I'd say he is a valuable player to have in a squad as he is able to play a number of positions that he doesn't stand out in ( in a good or bad way). While he won't excel he will do his job without costing you the game. Cheap versatile low range a-league level players are still important to squads in a salary capped league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF33 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 How does this situation normally play out in the A-League? We saw what happened when JVS took over again at the start of 2014 and Aloisi won his first game in charge too. Interim AFL coaches seem to have a pretty good track record first up.

jw1739 Posted March 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Now im worried. Teams usually fire up when this sort of stuff happens Yes, but it shouldn't really matter. If we are genuine contenders for the play-offs we have to win this match irrespective of back-room changes at Central Coast. If we're going to use this sort of thing as an excuse - and we've used some pretty feeble excuses in the past - then it just shows that we are not worthy contenders. We have a line-up that should be capable of winning this match comfortably. No more excuses. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perthheart Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Remember reading somewhere that teams more often than not lose their first game under new management and that whole idea of players firing up and winning first up was actually bollocks.

Can't see it being necessary and can't see the trade-off of saving ourselves maybe four and a half or five hours all up at the airport and in the air would justify sacrificing a couple of days at HQ, using our own facilities.
