Dear Sam,

Ifill suggested fans can look forward to a more adventurous approach from the Phoenix this season after
they trialled "knocking the ball around a bit more".
With the goal-on touchline law coming in, sensible.

The former Italy and Juventus forward will likely play against the Phoenix in their A-League opener on October 6 after signing a two-year deal with Sydney FC worth a reported A$4 million (NZ$5.1m).
"He's not the sort of signing we're looking at, it's not our model," Dome said.
"That sort of money could do a lot for football in this country."
In the Pannett style.

In the DP "Capital Day" section today:
"The Phoenix football star (Ifill) laughed over the new Phoenix supporters' T-shirt which carries the slogan: 'Keep Calm and Pass to Ifill", but wouldn't be photographed in front of it because he felt it might be disrespectful to his team-mates."
"Phoenix till they lose"

http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/football/7920733/Phoenix-need-a-marquee-central-midfielder
back four 'too flat'? what the hell? go back to rugby with your misinformed terminology
'release manny muscat to return to right back'
ever done any research?
suggests danny hay be bought in? Again, research please? like he and herbert would work together...
Advises that a midfielder needs to be bought asap, to 'turn around' the season... ever heard of a transfer window? It's pretty common knowledge among people who know about football...
and i havent even mentioned the grammatical errors, they seem to be standard fare for lazy journalists these days i guess
He also wrote this
mark reason bringing the lols this morning
Apparently ifill should be a holding midfielder, and only managers who were once forwards can get their teams to play attacking football. Tell that to arsene wenger, former centre back.
why do these people get commissioned to write about football?
edit: some more examples:
Guardiola, former defensive midfielder
Vilanova, midfielder (with minimal goals)
Brendan Rodgers, defender
I had a good rant about the piece on my twitter.
but seriously guys, Mark has a point -
If Ricki wasnt so deluded, he would just shift Lia to LB and we would become as good as Man Utd.
Its so obvious
Some of the comments on the article are even worse that the article itself.
a4design fighting the good fight - is that one of you?
just posted my comment
He's a journalistic troll. So annoyed everytime I click on a link and see that it's been written by him. Don't want to add comments as that just feeds the troll imo.

Yeah fair enough. Not hassling you for doing so, but I have this theory that due to the fact that online advertising is key, these journalist trolls rely on hits and comments, and will do anything they can to stir up either of these two. Thus any comment is a good comment for them, regardless of what is says. If that makes sense?

Also, Adblock Pro FTW. I don't see a single ad on the internet at all, and Stuff won't get any money from advertisers because of me. Winning.
What. Did. I. Just. Read. Lia to left back and ifill switching to DM. Amazing stuff.
One guy said "you'll only get 2 or 3 scores in the whole match". I've never understood this argument from rugby folk, you get exactly the same amount of tries in a rugby game. Just because they're worth 5 points instead of 1, plus the opportunity to watch a guy stand there for 3 minutes kicking a ball between posts for 2 or 3 points, doesn't make it more exciting.
Just FYI yes the column is trash but unfortunately it's not just in the Dom Post, it's basically in all Fairfax publications, just saw on Twitter some people ripping into the Dom Post only, not really their choice to publish it.
Ifill as a DM, good grief.....

Never heard of that before. Something to look into!

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.
