Phoenix Transfer - speculation

I think that we should use our guest appearance this season for a well known and very classy keeper. maybe someone from MLS?

Neil Harris is a legend as Millwall fans will testify. They guy overcame cancer to carry on with a good career.

Colosimo is so awesome he can play keeper if need be.  Get him Tony P!

J2 is probably equal with the CSL (not that i've seen it, just guessing)

The CSL team that is chasing Smeltz were champions in 2008 though

Heard Ricki talking today. Deffinatly not a NZ keeper, probably not Bosnich either

J2 is largely amateur I believe. Spent some time in Sendai, when I was 18, who have a team in J2 but it's not at all popular.

From Thailand, a couple of guys who might be worth keeping an eye on are Anon Sangsanoi (striker, 25yrs, BEC Tero Sasana), and Kawin Thammasatchanon (goalkeeper, 19, Muang Thong United)

Anon has been top scorer in the Thai Premier league for the last two seasons 20  and 18 goals (30 match seasons). According to Wikipedia, he's scored 51 goals in 79 appearances. He was top scorer with 6 goals in 5 games (he only played 4) at the 2007 South East Asian Games (u-23 squads). He was also top scorer in Thai Division 1 for one (possibly two) seasons before signing with BEC. He's only had a few games for the national team - Wiki says 3 caps (1 goal), and the source quted by wiki has 6 caps (0 goals).

whapish!!!!!!(that was a whip )

Patricio Almendra Cifuentes??

My team if McKain leaves would be:
sign up Colosimo,bring in this Anon Sangsanoi or Marcus Tudgay(shines for Sheffield Wednesday) and then a decent Holding Midfielder to make the midfield better. This would be my team:

-------------Paston--------
Troy/manny-Colosimo-Durrante-Lochy
----------Lia/Brown---------------
Leo/Ifill--------------------Daniel/ifill
-----------Tudgay-greenacre/ifill---

good side to me

If only it was that simple Tom...

A Thai goalkeeper, and a young one at that? No thanks!

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=424584&cc=3436  -  Hilarious.  Pretty sure that's our ex-Cleberson.

     

Yeah definately thats him, can't believe you only just found out about this......

Is it 2007 again?

If mckain leaves then we should sign this guy up.

what the f**k is he up to
Im glad we got rid of him

J-League >> Daylight  >> CSL. Dunno about J2 but not all J-League teams get great crowds so I suspect J2 teams don't get many.

Both CSL and J2 would be beneath Smeltz I believe, Turkey would have been much better.

wasnt that before we signed him?

Seriously, the way I see it, if Mulligan, Chen, and Ferrante aren't getting gametime then we should just release them.  Keep Diego based solely on his contract having an extra year on it and we know he can do well.  If we can find a better goalie then I wouldn't be too worried to see the back of Crowther.  We need to buy two good strikers and a good DM and I think Colosimo can tick that last box.  Only issue is would he want to come to Wellington.  Probably not.  Not like we've been linked with him anyway but he's a great player.

chen is on loan so im sure he'll be making his way back to china soon

how about the right wing from Akl city who played at the fifa world cup for club recently? Hayne or something like that? Wasn't he with Waitakere? How old is he? I reckon give him a trial.

Don't think we need another midfielder to be honest

Wingers are the last thing we need.

Looks like Stephen Old = Might play just as badly.

Nickname is Jesus, related to Lochhead perhaps?

Before spending a of year in an Australian state league only to pop up playing Scottish Premier league! Not a bad place to end up IMO Oska2009-12-13 16:49:04

Rumor has it that Sydney's ressie gk will be signed as injury replacement for PAsty

Prospective new signing spotted in Palmy:

Just an attempt at a humourous observation. Obviously failed. No doubt that Old has really stepped up over the last couple of years.

I know we dont need a midfielder but does anyone know how Chris James' trial going at MK Dons?

Ivan Vicilich for injury cover for a few weeks.

Ivan Necevski is decent, had Bolton on the bench for a good part of last season I think. Wouldn't be a bad option at all.

Yer this guy.  He's a big fan of the nix

Would he beat Crowther for top spot?
