First signing for the season. Hopefully a statement of intent. I'm picking a Brazilian since we are bringing in a Brazilian assistant coach. Maybe Gomes image.png25.18 KB
Exciting. Likely get the mens and womens strikers announced in the same week. Maybe even the assistant coach too. Have to give the club credit for not much in the way of rumours or names getting out, doesn't happen often.
Will reserve judgement till we see him play. Plenty of players have come to the A-league with a rather uninspiring C.V. on paper, and completely dominated.
Nice to get a striker signing at least, assuming this is who we're actually announcing tomorrow.

That is true but I think even the players that have had uninspiring CV's and done well like a Berisha, Zawada still played at some decent enough leagues like Bundesliga, Denmark, Bundesliga 2, Poland and while not excelling in those leagues its still a lot different to playing in the Nigerian, Libyan and Iraq league.
But who knows maybe he just never had the opportunity to be scouted to be in a better league.
Love it how people love to right guys off we have supposedly signed before they even are announced or have played a game. From memory i recall doubts being expressed by some about Ifill,Ball,Greenacre,Krishna,Davilla,Zawada those worked out. Think i will wait till whoever is signed has played before i cast any doubts.

All those players bar Krishna had played in a league better than the A-League. It's more just his CV I'd be concerned with as we've never really signed a player like that before. Heres some highlights of him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vftUo8KDY5w&ab_channel=ProfessionalplayershighlightsPpH
Definitely looks too good for that level and can see he has some promising traits so could be a hidden gem. But the quality of that league does look quite bad espcially the goalkeeping.
Wow what an interesting signing if it is him! Considering his CV maybe he is not too expensive and we can afford to fork out elsewhere?
I'd love to know about the scouting. With the leagues he is playing in there must be close to zero visibility no? Teams have some scouting tools they use but I imagine this is a bit of a stab in the dark maybe.
Feels to me like this is a similar signing to Yan Sasse and we all know the talent and potential he had, just never fully realised. Maybe this guy can realise the potential he has in our league?

He looks very quick, which is great.
But it worrys me if it's a sign of intent to play the same defensive, counter-attacking style of football this season.
Based only on the highlights reel , Eze looks fast, strong on the ball, skilful, with good passing and vision, and a strong left foot shot. Unselfish. Plays LW, RW or CF but seems also to have the skillset of a CAM. Hard to know how he'd go but looks promising. Would be the second Nigerian in the squad.

to me based on the highlights I'd say he lacks a good first touch though. Could be easily dispossessed when defenders are better and right on his toes when he receives the ball. Similar to Sasse I'd say.
Strange that the club and him are following each other, when last season the club got super intent on making sure that neither they or the player followed each other until an announcement

Yeah, same as the Bhandari/Jaber sighting - surely all the players and staff have had the hard word put on them.
