Didn't get much of a chance behind Lucas. But looks okay right across the back line. Only young

I've gone off recent history that when Australian clubs had back to back midweek fixtures in ACL Elite & ACL Two they've had weekend off as a result domestically in the Isuzu UTEA League Men prior to the second game of the back to back in AFC club competition which came into play in 2018.

This is going to be a very significant watch to all club members and fans from Adelaide United, Melbourne Victory, Newcastle Jets and right across the league when upcoming Isuzu UTE A League Men fixture release for 2026/27 season does come out hearing within this month as per Central Coast Mariners media release last week.

2020 AFC Champions League group stage – Perth Glory, Sydney FC, Melbourne Victory x1

Getting in to the mainstream media.

The Samurai Blue’s toughest opponents are themselves. The Australian coach would help them kick down the door to football’s global elite

I think we all want players like him in the league but can’t blame him for going elsewhere for the money

Ok I won't blame him I'll blame whoever fault it is. We can't talk about success in asia and tv ratings if we lose players like this

Eli Adams to Gamba Osaka is a done deal and will be finalised upon the completion of a medical.

I hope this goes well for him because I think he is a talent but it does make me a bit nervous when wide players go to J-League. Japan has a production line of good wide players. Imo his best position would be as RCF in the formation that Popa favours but as it's not that common probably unlikely Gamba go with that. I think he could go well as a 10 in Japan, particularly if he can work on his heading and get even modestly proficient in that area.
