Phoenix Transfer Speculation 2012/13

I think we really need to push getting both Glen Moss and Jeremy Brockie in

Not sure if Brockie's form in 2004-5 is now relevant? How old was he then?

He has been doing very well for the Jest this season, would love to see him come here on current form.

Would love to see Glen Moss back as well. Where else is he going to fit in the HAL? Cannot see him pushing out any of Vukovic, Galekovic, Covic, Ryan or Theoklitos. I read somewhere Bolton is retiring (?), which leaves MH, Sydney, West Sydney if it happens, or Newcastle I guess.

What is Reddy's situation at Bling? Out of favour or injured? Contracted next year? Would have him back in a heartbeat!

Reddy is doing his normal. Starts the season well then plays like a dog and gets dropped.Happened at Brisbane.
Has been dropped. Played well for us, but I would not have him if you paid me. He is just not good enough.

Moss was no. 1 previously, and for the AWs before his suspension so I don't think Paston would be first choice keeper. Plus Moss is better than Paston. Personally I would worry about having 2 injury prone keepers at the club though. Bring in Basalaj instead!

Plus since Moss' departure, Ricki brought in Reddy, Vukovic and McMaster in (not including Crowther and Warner who came to be the second keeper in the squad), with both Reddy and Vuko getting the starting job. Not exactly something Ricki would have done if he rated Paston very highly.

You could hardly say that Paston's been Ricki's unquestionable number 1 over his years here.

Oh yeah, forgot Paston was perpetually crook through the latter half of the season the past few years.

Still, I don't think Ricki really rates him that much.

Scott Basalaj move from TW to Nix?Rangers are in the sh*t big time at the moment.

I would imagine that his move to Rangers would be free and with Rangers under administration, like Portsmouth, they probably won't be able to buy players and they will probably want to reduce the wage bill and sell off players to increase revenue, so why wouldn't Rangers want Scott?

Where's Jason Spangollo these days?

Watched the Roar v Glory last night - another very impressive performance by the Roar - without Broich !! The two goals�for which Berisha and Henrique combined were pure class.

got to be focusing on imports and then aussies to plug the gaps depending on whos kicking around. no AWs out there except maybe brockie who may cost a bit. After that any young kiwis wud be a bonus.

...or a detestable clogging w**ker (Grella). Suspect that after Melbourne 2010 he wouldn't last one training.

These are the Aussie's currently overseas:http://www.ozfootball.net/ark/Abroad/index.htmlSadly it doesn't include contract lengths, but those that I would be interested in are ones that just left recently. I know Grella is off contract, but we don't need an injury prone player on big money.Looking at this season makes me realize how much we need the Academy set up yesterday. We have an aging squad, and its unlikely we can lure the better players from other clubs. If we want replacements who are better than what we have, we need to develop them ourselves, rather than hope to stumble onto talent missed by other team's youth set ups.This is also why we need to set the bar high for who we sign as imports. Being restricted to Aussies & Kiwis, the import slots are the best way to improve the squad in the short term.
