I can't see us being that close to the cap based on the players we have and the gaps in our squad still. I also can't see Lewis costing much
Well there is the salary cap floor too, so we won't be way below the cap as that's contrary to the league regulations.
Well, yes, but the point is that our budget can't be way below the salary floor because of the league regulations.

There you go with your logical arguments again...
Currently suffering exile in Christchurch
There's no evidence that we're being cheap, we're using our full overseas quota and the foreigners we've hired all have a good pedigree. While we're signing a lot of unproven players in the A-League there's just not many good proven and performing Ausies on the market right now.
If the Phoenix do end up being under the cap then that's not necessarily a bad thing in a rebuild year as you can allocate the cap that you saved to the following year and increase the cap temporarily.

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.
I don't really understand why we wouldn't get Lewis if we can get on a loan deal or free. We've got Davila, Piscopo and Devlin in the CAM area so would be good depth and I'd put him ahead of Devlin in the pecking order and he can play in CM role too so if we change formations he can play in different roles. We'll have 3 spots left to fill after an import ST can't see the harm in having more depth in the squad and it'd be unlikely we'd sign 3 players in January.
On the other hand Clayton seems to be in form now and is a known quantity.
They had one all but signed but it hit a problem. They are working up option B now.
Can someone please explain where all the Gary Hooper chat originated from?

Hes a free agent atm and we were supposedley linked to an english forward
Logan Rogerson??
- a free agent - 2 goals in 10 games across two seasons of A-League - doesn't take an import spot
- squaddie as a back up for injury to forwards
- did leave when contract offer dried up - but has more A-League experience than some.

Rogerson has looked good at u23 level... why not, worked out with Rufer.
I like Logerson. I think he would be a handy pick up. But he is more of a wide player, and in a similar boat to Lewis, he would be nice to have, but not what we need.

By all accounts Rogerson is signing/has signed with Auckland City.
43 unread posts, got excited and thought we had signed a striker but then got PTSD from the mentions of Watto and Rogerson returning

Got a name for option A?

No, but close according to interpretation of this Nostradamic quatrain.

Returned from the amazon battle
But his rule and stay will be of short duration

Is this a long way of saying we're getting a Brazilian who's been plying his trade in Spain?

Diego Costa confirmed
Has anyone checked Insta to see if Taylor has started following anyone new?

Ben Arfa is still free agent
In saying that, this guy is available: Bubacarr Trawally
Good age, decent scoring record and I assume coming from The Gambia, speaks English.
Can't remember names but Hume had 2 young guys who looked very good last night (sound like they had play youth n lower English leagues)

A game they deserved to win. That sub should have received his 2nd yellow and he scored the winner.

It seems we are all putting a lot of stock in the last Visa player - presumably a striker/forward
- I guess that is the Krishna effect - he did score a bucket load last year and got us dreaming.
However, if he had been injured halfway through the season - would we have finished 8th/10th? Or would the team have rallied?
What if this onion bag bulger also gets injured? Season over?
Seems like the Nix need to be more of a team than a golden boot for hire and his extras.
