If you consider how well Ramon has done with Auckland City, I am curious that Adelaide City (who are clearly only employing Spanish coaches) have not yet made him an offer.
Or maybe they did, and he said "this lot won't make it to the Club World Championship Finals".
Of course United, apology.
I am old enough to still think of Sergio Melta and Charlie Villani when I think of Adelaide.
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days
I'm sure Adelaide City could do better than United in the HAL right at this present moment.
Wonder if we can pick up Marco on loan? Means he can come home for xmas...

Ryan Griffiths just got released - perhaps a chance? Never really rated him though. Just released from Sarawak in the Malaysian league after scoring 30 in 50 games.

Not sure if he would pass the "No Dicks" eligibility threshold.

I'm sure Joel can put in a good word. If we get Ryan then we should be looking at Adam next year. Just so we can say we've had the complete set.
If it was up to me I know which Griffiths I would prefer as a Not A Striker:

What's he done on the level of his brother? J.Griffiths redeemed himself somewhat, think R.Griffiths is okay.

Mainland FC would then be Not a Scorer
I think we'd get more entertainment out of Andy

Phoenix - Hope for a win,Expect a loss,Settle for a draw
Against MV next Saturday night? With Kosta, Finkler and Berisha in good form?
You betcha.
But as long as the AKL-ers turn up in numbers, it will be a great night.
But apparently Rachel won't be there, she has other plans...... darn.

Blue Warehou - Big and Meaty, there I go again sounding x rated by mistake
Phoenix - Hope for a win,Expect a loss,Settle for a draw
I'm going for a win, stuff the Jinx, stuff those that go with the grain..I'm going against it and going to be positive this Xmas month, If a Gypsy can win the world heavyweight boxing title then our Nix can win win win

Dialogue underway to bring Ronaldinho to the A-League on a three month contract. At least one club interested.

I know this wont be us but the sugar hit from that kinda guest stint would really help with the metrics. Could be tempting for WelNix?
He'll go to Brisbane and stuff up their game (if he goes anywhere) I reckon.
Coincidence this has been leaked a few hours before the FFA presser?
Anyway, no thanks. Thought we were past these sorts of guest stints.

Does a guest stint not count against a foreign spot?
Based on this performance, I would rather sign Cafu at 45 years old.
Definitely the sort of signing which will restore credibility to the A League....
From May this year:
Mexico: Ronaldinho looking for a new club amid more lifestyle allegations at Querétaro. In January fitness coach Roberto Bassagaisteguy told local media Ronaldinho had a tailored regime because “as a rule he does not do physical exercise - I cannot make him run because he doesn’t like it. There are many things he doesn’t like.”
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/may/02/sa...
From October this year:
Brazil: Ronaldinho, leaving Fluminense after nine games, then rolling his car into a ditch. Brother and agent Robert de Assis says the mood remains upbeat. “We’re studying the offers that are coming in. Will he retire? Are you crazy? You’ll have more surprises yet.”
People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.
We might get more success with any up and coming young gun in the Australian lower leagues trying to get noticed and move up to the big time - there is always some movement there after the FFA Cup finishes.

I was interested to see Nico Bechar in the top 10 Queensland players outside the A-League. I thought he was steady but unspectacular for TW's last year.

So how much game time are Powell, Danaskos & Fox getting currently?
Time to get someone ready to slot straight into the starting line up.
True. I have not seen Danaskos at all.
However I would rate Powell as so far useful, if unspectacular.
Unfortunately the same can be said about Sarpong, who is a visa player.
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days
I'd hate to say it but the last state league player that we signed that actually turned out to be any good was Manny and that was many many moons ago.
Might be time to ignore those leagues and look more in our own back yard (NZ), which thankfully has been happening a fair bit over the last 3/4 years.
So if Sarpong doesn't show dramatic improvement this month, do we consider telling him he is free to look elsewhere in the world this January, in the hope he heads back to Holland?
I had high hopes for him but have been far from impressed and to be frank he doesn't look a happy camper
Would free up an import spot, some coin and maybe we can get lucky in the window?
Maybe someone finishing up in Japan/Korea who is on the market?
I am still tryi g to figure him out. Great speed and ru s around a lot lime Shaun Wright-Phillips whom was affectionately known as "the headless chicken" for runni g arojnd i cir les without ever actually doing anything.
Sarpong definitely didn't do anything yesterday.
Sarpong is a poor replacement for King Kenny, let alone Burns.
I think it's time to admit that Sarpong isn't up to it and move on. Unfortunately if we pay him out to leave, AFAIK it's still counted under the cap?
In terms of player hype to actual performance ratio; Sarpong might be our most disappointing signing ever?
