Looks to defenitely made a good start over there.  Unfortunate we have such strong RBs in the national team in..... *checks notes* Fran Karacic and Rhyan Grant, that he can't get selected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we underestimated him. We may not like the football he served us or the disruption under his watch (though I suspect it was a fight that needed to be had), but he seems to want to maintain the link and help us. That's assuming Jenkinson isn't bad news, and I don't think he is. With any luck he's cut from the same cloth as Richie de Laet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a couple of periods with us when he was down, but overall he was one of our best. Ex-EPL - good scoring and assist record, what were we thinking? Better than Leckie and Pucciarelli rolled into one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jovan Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 On evidence so far absolutely poor call. I think the logic was that Leckie would be as good if not better. And secondly gives us option of bringing in another quality Visa and basically replaced Garruccio (not positionally more as squad quota) So far on all accounts a big balls up. Obviously post season will be a definitive evaluation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not written off Leckie, i still feel he is about to explode. I'm more sceptical on Pucci, he is looking more and more like O'halloran. Probably can play but never really did.

jw1739 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 It's Friday so it must be time for a rant. For me this is not just a club matter, but it's an APL matter as well. IMO the league as a whole has lost the plot on visa and marquee players. IIRC both of these categories were designed to bring bums-on-seats drawcard quality to the league, and we had players such as Dwight Yorke, Del Piero, Shinji Ono, David Villa, Tim Cahill and so on, and more who were less successful than those I have named. But what I see now is that these positions are used more as an opportunity to sign pretty ordinary players. What's more there seems no intent anymore to use these players as publicity material for the game. The last real publicity I recall from City were the Tim Cahill posters that appeared in bus shelters around the area where I live. I'll accept that COVID makes bums-on-seats much more difficult, but IMO we've degraded what marquee and visa players should be about.

I reckon that was solely to give him game time to placate him rather than anything strategic. I believe BG was meant to be Jamo's replacement, but Jamo didn't decline as quick as expected. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
