Next up Alex Brosque and Matt Simon and we'd have every cod except the Racist one.
What's Tim Cahill doing?
Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet
Expectation: Giuseppe Rossi
Played in 3 top European leagues ✔
Has 30 caps for his national team ✔
Reality: Darren Bent

Based on reports, it should not be Darren Bent at all.
Based on this analysis it could also be David Carney that we are interested in...
Yeah it could be, execpt Carney is not a striker and has not played in 3 top European leagues.
Three for me, and two for them.

Just remember the original article was on Stuff so they probably consider the Championship and Uzbek League as top European Leagues

Remy would be awesome. a little short but a very very good player. A wasted benchwarmer at Chelski.
As much as I've always been a fan of Pepito Rossi, I really hope we don't sign him as his body just isn't up to it.
No one more than me relished in his story, little Italian boy from the States playing in Serie A and for the Azzurri, but he's just had too many injuries and I would spend my money more wisely (also doubt he'd be keen to play in the A-League...).

Remy would be one of our tallest players at 1.85m!
I remember seeing videos of him playing for Marseille before he hit the EPL and thought he was going to be the next Thierry Henry, he really fell off in regards to higher profile clubs and only costed Lille 1.something Mill recently. Remy would light up the league.
Remi was excellent at QPR then Chelski bought him and kept him on the bench. He'd be an awesome signing.
Not a transfer, but I thought Taci Kumsuz looked pretty good in the 30 mins he played for the Weenix. 19, Turkish and (apparently) NZ. Stood out more than Kopa or Way IMO.
Excellent touch, very comfortable on the ball, and nearly scored twice with individual skill. Full bag of tricks - nutmeg, feint, tick-tock, dragback and stepover all sighted, and used because it was the right thing to do (not to show off). Possibly a bit slow.
Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Not happening, only recently signed with Lille

Interesting as I remember reading that WSW were very happy to get rid of him.

it was a lovely piece of skill - but should of passed to the free man. Looked good.
Is our squad complete now?

Sign him with appearance\goal bonus as a key part of the contract. We have to take risks to get talent here
would we go for Robbie Keane???
https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/robbie-keane/profi...
or Berbatov??
https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/dimitar-berbatov/p...

I can't believe Keane is still playing TBH.
Yeah they are a sharke band and given the backlash against music being played during matches I don't see this transfer happening

Tommy Semmy - CF, 24, PNG.
Serial MVP winner, and two goals in game 1 of the 18/19 Handa. Dribbled past seven for one goal.
9 goals / 3 assists in 15 games. One to watch.

He dominated the All Whites defence in the penalty shootout match the other year, particularly Boxall.

That goal wasn’t as impressive as it seems tbh, the entire defence was running back at the same time, and wouldn’t have happened against anything other than a sub par Handa defense, not to mention his one footedness would totally be exposed. Good player but definitely nowhere near import level. We took a chance with Krishna on an injury contract and it worked, but as a proper visa player, well as stated before we saw what happened to our last unproven National League OFC player...
I don't know what you people are on about 'what happened to our last unproven National League OFC player'.
Krishna is the clubs equal top scorer.

I remember this same argument being used about us signing Roy Krishna.
I'm not saying yes we should sign him, but let's not write off all non-New Zealand OFC players just because the first time we tried that it didn't work out.

Krishna wasn't great in his first season with us and didn't get a lot of minutes, obviously improved for season two though.

Krishna was definitely one of the league's best players, and was signed on an injury replacement contract so little risk, but other than that my bad mate! Didn't want to make it seem derogatory or anything.
If an OFC player pops up and has the same or better credentials at Handa level than Krishna, he's worth a strong look. Just it's not a good idea to think about signing Semmy on a visa slot when we should be, and are, aiming a lot higher than a rough diamond National League player playing for a small team by Handa standards
Fox Football Podcast reports that we were going for signing Giuseppe Rossi but missed out on him. The search continues though:
Wellington Phoenix miss out on Italian international Giuseppe Rossi as marquee search continues
Express Football Special Calling At
Fratton Park - Champion Hill - Kiwitea St
And all away grounds inbetween.
So Rossi isn't marquee quality but Honda is? Honda was playing in the Mexican league for christ sake. Not saying he's not worthy of a marquee status because so far he clearly is, but come on. Rossi would be an absolute baller in this league, is still young and has had arguably a better career than Honda. OK then.
Sniffs of FFA reluctant to dish out marquee funds to the Nix. Typical.
