Apart from throwing SIngh in there which statement however is actually incorrect?
I assume you're replying to me? I thought the comment was harsh on the players I mentioned because:
Krisha is one of our most consistent players.
Fenton being useless for TW has no bearing on his performance for the Nix. He certainly isn't useless for us.
Rufer has been one of the better players across the first three games. Worse then Ridenton is subjective.
Cacace and Singh have played a handful of games sure, but look like A-League standard youngsters to me.
Well, sorry to break the news, but;
Yes, Krishna is a good player. But there is no doubt he goes quiet throughout most games, where he has little impact. The lack of quality in our team does not help this, though. However, when hes on, hes dangerous, and he does manage to turn up with a goal every now and then. But he is inconsistent - if he wasnt, he would've scored more than 4 goals last season as our primary scoring option.
Fenton is pretty useless for us. Not the best defender and can barely make a 10 yard pass. His performances for TW 100% allow us to come to the conclusion that he is not the required standard - because he barely was at a lower level of football.
Cacace IMO is barely A-League standard. Has way too many limitations to be a reliable starter... He constantly gets caught out in defence and struggles to cope with opposition attackers - as a result, teammates have to help him and this ends up drawing the rest of the team out of shape. I dont believe he would be a standout in the NZFC, in fact I dont think he would even start for the top 2 or 3 teams.
I think that's a bit harsh on Cacace. He has good potential and is still learning. However, I agree that he was less than effective against WSW simply because they had better players on his side of the pitch (both technically and physically). I would like to think that it's time to put Doyle there, and put Fox in as one of three CBs with Dura and Taylor.
It doesn't help on the RB side of things. However, Rudan did not contract Tratt and went with Fenton. There must be a reason for this and for time being this is what we have. We would benefit from another striker before we even consider replacing Fenton, even if I know he'll struggle against Fornaroli next weekend.
