He did some good passes but still dont rate him. Gave away the ball heaps and is lazy on defence. Still think he's a weak link.


 

He was great tonight. He does have weaknesses but man he's got a good pass on him! Possibly the best in the team imo.

How about u actually watch him in defence... i'm not saying he didn't do some good passes because he did but he gave away the ball and his positional play in defence was shyte. Improved from last week though.

Ferrante is a good player, THis week good to see him last for the whole game and his second half was good too...Good to see he stayed away from the goals and just fed the ball forward which he did well...Air must get to thin for him when he gets close to the goals.

I think i'll stop being a d**k and say that the guy had a good game!
His passing was really good, i cant wait til he gets more consistant and puts together a 90 min performance. but a great second half from ferrante.

He played a good game against Bling FC, hopefully that's the Ferrante we'll see more of from now on!

And even if guys have a bad game, this is their fan club. I feel sh*tty to imagine a player checking the forums for a lark, and seeing himself abused. I reckon we can comment on strengths and weaknesses, talk about football, without bagging our lads. :)

You have to admit, Ferrante had his best game this season so he is getting better and better.

Phoenix coach Ricki Herbert paid tribute to his players for holding on for the new franchise's historic first win."That win was really for the people outside of the team - the owner, the board, the fans, the people that really have put a professional football club in New Zealand in a very good way," Herbert said.
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

I have to admit, I am not the biggest fan of Ferrante, but his ball distribution was alot better last night & I can't recall him having a wayward shot on goal.

he had some good touches last night but also gave the ball away cheaply
mind u alot of the lads did that towards the end.
they all need to learn to hold the ball
if the other team cannot get the pill they cannot win

yes, and if we score more goals than the other team, we will win. Simple really.
