Josh in the zone, he loves it here. You can't buy that. It's free.
We have a history with a visa goalkeeper before (Kurto) who was obviously much better than Josh from day one. However, as with some other our imports, he then ended up elsewhere in the A-League.
Whether Josh loves it here or not is kinda neither here nor there as long as he performs at a level we would expect from a visa player.
The question of whether anyone (not just Josh) should be our visa player can be answered with "yes, if we cannot get as good a non-visa player for that position for that money". On that I will let others comment. I continue to think we would need a decent regular (older?) goalie as neither Alby not Eamon are better than Josh at this stage. They are both excellent development goalies that can step up as backup when needed.
