Daniel Lins Cortes - wants owners out and warns of player exodus

Truth caught up with Daniel in Thailand this week. He says he is in contact with a number of players at the club who will walk out at the end of the season unless there is a change of ownership. He also endorses Ricki Herbert - even though they had a few run-ins. Listen to the interview here on Truth Radio... http://truth.co.nz/exclusive-matheson-interviews-daniel-lins-cortes/

2. daniel is bitter

Martin Devlin, is that you?

the questions are cut too- you can't hear what the questions are. Cowardly interview by the Truth, but good to hear from Daniel.

What's happening with Daniel in Thailand?  Let's here more about that.

Though agree- Daniel did better advertising for the 'Nix by going over to the fans and waving his arms 'Fire Up!' than 3-4 admonishments from Gareth about fans being pathetic or having to turn up or whatever. Get the buzz going! 

Players like Daniel and Tim Brown are players you need to make a club, not just a franchise.

Totally agree. I think Daniel was good for another season. He's as fast as Ifill and had better technique. However, the club offer was not what it could have been and he moved onwards. Being played as an attacking midfielder, he's scored a few goals in Thailand already. Mind you it's not the first, nor will be the last time Ricki has pklayed players way out of their normal position...and not for reasons of player shortages.

So where would you play Marco then LG?

Marco sees himself as an attacking midfielder, Ricki has him as a wide man and Ange has him up front. 2/3 are wrong, you tell me who it is.

It's easy to blame the coach for players 'played out of position' but if you are the boss, you play them where you think is best.

I would play them in the position of which makes the most of their strengths. Marco for example for me, I'd have played him just behind the front two. A bit further forward than an AM but still able to work in that central attacking position, not out on the wing. Sure he has a turn of speed but a talent like Marco needs to be involved in the game most of the time.

Oh well that makes both all 3 wrong then. You've kinda proved my point. You are the boss, you play them where you see them getting the maximal benefit for the team.
