what about alen macina or rodriques?

You have very dusty A-League knowledge. Milton played for Newcastle Jets, I think its Dani Rodrigues you are referring to, and no hes injured all the time. Bazeley is absolutely pathetic, and is coaching over in Waitak anyway.

GK - Milosovich - GOD NO
GK - Turnbull - would be OK as 3rd keeper, but wouldnt want to be 3rd choice.
DR: Bazeley- PLEASE NO
DC: Bunce - Maybe
DC: Tambouras - Needs to be signed
DC: Kovacevic - No thanks
DL - Duruz - Not worth it, hes foreign
DL - Gordon - playing in England/coaching in England
MR: Hickey - retired
MR: Richter - sh*te
MC: Salley - Adelaide United
MC: Gemmill - Way too slow and way too old.
ML: MIchael White - England to play with Buari
ST: Rodrigues - Always injured, foreign
ST: Emblen - Not worth a foreign spot.
ST: Marcina - playing with Puerto Rico Islanders - would be great if we could sign him but I highly doubt it
ST: Devine - Oh god.

Nembo just said that bro? Ye i think tambouras has to come and i dnt think richters that bad to be honest. Hes got pace and can play a variety of positions! He would be a good bench player. Last season he was wit sht players. Put him in a good team and hell be much better. Wheres Patrovski? Did he leave Sydney?

I'd forgotten about the Knights - please don't help me remember.
almost 19 years ago · edited over 13 years ago
Nembo's picks are pretty spot on.
 
The only players whom I would have taken from the old Knights as first choices for the Phoneix would have been Jonas Salley and Lei Lei Gao - neither of whom are available, unfortunately.  And maybe Alen Marcina, but even that's a maybe, given the "only four foreigners" rule.
 
I haven't seen Tambouras enough to be able to comment.
 
The only others who would have been in the maybe category are Bunce and Hickey (but he's retired), and as others have noted on other threads, Bunce seems to be out of favour with Ricky at the moment.
 
I agree that Richter is not up to A-league standard.  Yes, he's fast, but the number of times he scorched down the right wing last year, and then blazed his cross/shot anywhere but at the goal, was way too many for a professional footballer.  I see he's been picked up by Sydney FC - so maybe even the big clubs get it wrong sometimes...!
 
I liked watching Emblen play up front at the end of last season when paired with a fast guy (Marcina, Buari), and have a sentimental feeling for the guy (he did have nice ball control skills!), but he's not for the Phoenix, and not for this year.
football tragic for too long

Its Casey not Richter who was signed but Sydney.
If you mean Sasha Patrovski he has gone to the Central Coast Mariners.

OK, where's Richter gone, anyone know?

Thats true.

Richter is not up to A League level, he can stay in Australia.
almost 19 years ago · edited over 13 years ago
Can we please end any futher thought of Ritcher coming to the Phoenix...he played shockingly for the Knights....he did try hard and ran tirelessly all day but even that did not make up for his poor technical skill and lack of presence.
 
The number of times he stuffed up a 1 on 1 with keeper or even  just an open goal would have put him as the top scorer for the Knights and probably the whole A-league if he had even converted half of them...

Agree totally with Brewe. Richter is pathetic and looks like a mouse
