Overall I don't think posters to the Forum have much to complain about. IMO we moderators only intervene when provoked into doing so. Almost all posters back off when asked to do so - that's my experience anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) Showed tonight why he keeps getting games. Oozes class on the ball, but that’s not obvious when he goes nowhere near it/goes missing. Hopefully tonight’s the start of some consistency from him.

Popular Post mus-28 Posted February 7, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 Any negative comments posted in this thread attributed to my account were clearly posted by my wife unbeknown to me. She's always had a dislike for French things Champagne, Profiteroles and Peugeots, amongst other things. Me on the other hand have always known our French prince would eventually shine brighter than a diamond encrusted Louis Vuitton handbag. 6 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewConvert Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 I have already pointed out that Florin comes to play against the bottom four teams. He has had good games before Friday night's game for example Newcastle. But always against the bottom four team. And MV are ninth. The other talking point was whether he came to play to the big games. Well if you were to say to me that second vs ninth is a big game then that would only be possible if the comp was very even. The only big thing about the game was due to the derby. Now I don't want to detract from what was Florin's best game for City. But let's keep some perspective. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote City's grand final; our final pre ACL group stage practice match. Quote Great to see Rojas getting minutes and Carlos proving he can be tactically versatile, hopefully Kruse pulls up alright though. Our first game is at home against Chiangrai United, all due respect to them but it will be a safe place to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you've got mods taking part in troll threads and 50% of the posters are Victory supporters so they jump on any City or Sydney FC thread and destroy them. It's probably on it's last legs now, traffic has dwindled and the owners will probably pull the pin on the site soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The look on his face was "I just completely fluked a save there" Yep, may have been earlier that he started coming good, but a very noticeable improvement since 'that game' v the Mongs at the start of Feb. Really hope we can hold on to him tbh, albeit id rather not as the marquee. He's still got a few more very good games to go before i'm really comfortable with him retaining that spot.

So whilst i think we all agree he was played horribly out of position under Joyce, there's a reasonable case to suggest that hes only really been properly fit since he got back after his early season injury this year. Excuses, yep absolutely, but sometimes they count for something. Lets hope the lad goes on with it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mail with florin is that he had a heavily back ended deal, so if that looked like 100k and then 500k, 300k can comfortably fit under the cap in its current guise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
