I’m worried about the depth now if we don’t sign anyone next week, we have let so many decent young fringe players go this window without finding any suitable replacements. This may come back to bite us in years to come. I hope I’m wrong

Problem is they would remain at best fringe players at us (dovison is a good example of who i wouldve kept in place of lackay minimum), i can understand they would be looking for regular football and they wouldnt have broken into the first team, and i agree that our depth is seriously lacking but we are currently in need of ready players, our under 23s have sone serious talent that can fill the fringe need moving forward, this is why this window and the au champ one was so important.. we need a CB and a steiker none of those released cover those key needs imo...

Had we been having this convo npl/otc start id be arguing same as you and more about need for those players..

Didn't get to the game today as I was at the footy but glad I missed it. I don't understand meneleu played alright vs hume in the middle with Tommy at the back. Hume a team 2nd on the table yet now we have reverted to just pasquali in the middle. There is no presence and control teams cut us up. If meneleu is injured then pope should be starting pope played a big role on staving off relegation last year and deserves more of the chance he's been crucified this season with lack of opportunity. The other alternative being to give coveny or osullivan a go at centre back to move Tommy back to middle.

As mentioned sinisa looks defeated but it's looking more like its not his fault when he has to start a certain player. I was okay with him coming off the bench for 20 minutes or so but he can't be starting ffs. The only good thing he has is a good shot on him and half the time the ball gets stuck between his feet before he can shoot ffs.

He has a good shot off a set piece. I've never seen him strike a good ball in the npl in open play, he gets closed down quickly, ball gets stuck between his feet, then loses it and the opposition launch a scoring opportunity, meanwhile he doesnt run.

Its going to start getting toxic soon because he knows the supporters dont want him, and hes showing early signs of going into epifano mode with the crowd.

Its staggering that his dad is putting him in this position. Its not personal, hes just shit.

We are in a crisis and one president has planted his son in the first 11 whilst the other i think is in Greece living it up.
