The Melbourne City Thread

I have...

Perhaps being a United supporter I know a bit more about his credentials than you do?

You don't need to have a cry because my opinion is different to yours.

You have given him a chance? Yet to see evidence of that

Am I calling for him to be sacked?

Marcelo Carrusca has signed for us.

Why are they announcing this again today in email to members and on social media?

 

[The City Boyz]

Decent signing.
Tbh I can't see us finishing higher than 3rd again this season, we haven't really improved on last years squad unfortunately

The manager is the big difference. A good gaffa is everything. Time will tell if he's the one.

No Bruno until possibly 2018.

Yeah dat hurts

As good as he is, I hope it forces us to structure up forward differently. I don't think it worked late last season.

The issue last season was Bruno having to share with Cahill, we also lost Brandan as an attacking option. As good as Cahill was at times for us last season he negated Bruno quite a lot.

How will we lineup tonight?

I thought the opposite. We relied too much on Bruno.

Worked the season before.

Sure did. He had a lot more work put into him last season though. Every week the opposition smothered him and we rarely had him isolated. Also, Mooy.

 

[Roos Addick]

We live on 505 tonight lads

They certainly loved defending him.

Fallacy. We've strengthened at the back and lost no-one of any real note. Perhaps Franjic, but lets be honest he did sweet fa for City. Marquee AM to come. We'll be fine.

Woeful line up. Sydney 4-0

 

[pantskyle]

Commentator seemed to think we are going to announce a few signings in the next week or so.

We got one visa spot left?

Not sure.

 

[Roos Addick]

Sydney are $3.50 to go back to back. I'm getting on it now.

 

[moomba]

Reminded me a lot of the end of last season, but worse. Pretty insipid performance, Sydney didn't need to get out of 2nd gear to look a couple of classes above.

Yup. Lack any flair. Boring plodders

 

[TheKanga]

We will need another striker to replace Bruno.
We couldn't create much tonight.

It's the little things that add up mate. Let's take it one thing at a time.
