ESPN is advertising Italy v Malta tomorrow morning, any
one know if Manny is in the squad?
With Malta playing Italy in WC qualifier live on ESPN tomorrow morning, was hoping Manny was still playing for Malta.
Just checked and unfortunately he's not in the squad - and hasn't played for Malta since Sept 6 2011, almost exactly a year ago. Is this due to Manny making himself unavailable or the change in coach for Malta after that time? Manny's last game for Malta : 1-1 home draw with Georgia 6/9/11 Euro Championship qualifier (as good as it gets for lowly Malta generally).
"On 6 September 2011, Malta won their first Euro 2012 qualifying point, with a 1–1 draw against Georgia. During the years of 2010 and 2011, Malta did not get many positive results, and coach John Buttigieg and assistant coach Carmel Busittil were both sacked in October 2011."

Despite a Sam Worthington article last week in the Dom-Post saying Muscat was "in Albania playing for Malta" seems in fact he wasn't - no mention of him in any line-ups for that game:

His last game for Malta remains the 1-1 home draw with Georgia 6/9/11 Euro Championship qualifier.

Sam Worthington reporting facts that are actually completely wrong? I'm shocked.
I actually heard one of the commentators in the game against Adelaide mention that he had a recall and was due to play.
Plays his 150th Game for the Nix v Perth on the weekend.
2nd only to Dura in Games played for the Nix.

Thought it was something like that. Worse than our overall record.
I was at the away game in Newcastle when Manny scored his first goal in January 2012! :-)
I think I remember (it had been a long day...!) that being Daniel's 100th game as well.
Manny scored a cracking winning goal in front of the away fans, and we'd just won our 2nd away game in a week after beating the Cold Toast - cracking trip! :-D

I think that may have been his last game, too?

Was that the one where Daniel had five minutes on the pitch and touched the ball once? Great way to celebrate your centenial.
Still don't know what Ricky had against him towards the end of his term at the nix.

He was no longer good enough.
What is he up to these days, I wonder.

Would you rather have Daniel coming off the bench (as he seemed to for last 10 or so appearances) or the current version of Kenny?
You mean like when Ricki brought Daniel on in the 89th minute and expected to score? Ricki promised Daniel a few things that he never delivered on. For example, a place in the All Whites to see how he'd go.

Agree. I felt for Daniel, actually. He would not have gone for the citizenship - got it just when Ricki decided to discard him.

Daniel would not cope with the physicality of the Perth game.
Kenny - he might turn around yet.
