Adelaide United FC Thread: Champions (2015-16), Premiers (2005-06, 2015-16), FFA Cup (2014) Winners

This.

The goals will come with the chances we're creating. We'll be around the mark when it counts, if anything good is to come out of the first 5-6 rounds it will be that we are getting a look at our depth and exposing them to more game time than they probably would've expected.

Guardiola will smash this league when we are back to full strength. I am super excited about him.

Being away I've only seen highlights but he really could've had a large night last night with some luck.

City next week then Brisbane before the Mariners.

Doesn't get easier quickly, good news is we seem to be playing better than this time last year.

We play CCM after the City game

 

[hey shorty]

Holland out injured tonight. Probably saves Makarounas

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Any chance we can get a shot on target tonight?

Nah just posts.

That Kilkenny need to be punched in the head.

Disgrace what he tried doing.

What did he do?

 

[hey shorty]

What did he do?

Took a massive dive after being rubbed on the head.

Isa already on a yellow so they clearly are trying to suck the ref in, true Cahill that.

I reckon the assistant saved his arse.

Disgraceful act.

 

[Crowked]

Never seen so many dives. The Melbourne City players, particularly Fornarelli (sp?) just flop to the floor every time they touch the ball. Ruining what should be a great game.

Its about time players were suspended retrospectively for blatant dives. They're making a joke of the game.

Can only hope.

We can and will get better. I really like the look of our youngsters.

probably the best squad weve ever had, just need to get a top players fit.

 

[TheKanga]

Tough break guys, you're luck has to turn around soon...

 

[hey shorty]

It will, we are playing well but just not quite for long enough.

Thought at the time the penalty against Guardiola was a bit stiff. Good to see Val making a clear point of it yesterday and pretty well describes it exactly as I saw it.
One week we're getting hacked at and injured without fair reprimands, next we're penalised by a team of floppers and a hack actor taking the biggest dive ever seen and go without a reprimand.

[hey shorty]

Its been utterly ridiculous so far, how Kilkenny didn't get carded for that I'll never know.

There was a similar incident to the Guardiola one during the WSW/CCM game and no penalty. All we ask is for consistency.

There's great footage of Kilkenny doing exactly the same during a game in England, he's the one who initiates contact with an opposition player and then dives when touched back. It's a carbon copy of last Friday. If FFA match review panel don't suspend him then we may as well give up.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

So Choi now injured with a foot injury. No idea what happened or how bad it is but all I can do is laugh at our luck. Our replacement injury player is now injured.

Smh.

 

[diligaf473]

Ch9 news reported that Celo will be back sooner than expected. Only saw the headline but couldn't hear the story due to presentations at the cricket club. Anyone hear when he will return?

 

[FAITH]

In the squad for Sunday apparently

 

[diligaf473]

Sweet

 

[hey shorty]

Chelo and Holland back in and the squad just looks so much better. Shame for Choi though, he's looked the goods early season.

Wonder if he will stay on for one of our other injuries.

 

[diligaf473]

Hope so. How long is he out for?

 

[hey shorty]

Still hasn't been said, so probably 7 weeks like Chelo.
