honestly, i dont get the big deal with the marquee. most of them have been ****ing trash. most of the success stories have been talented footballers who are in their mid to late 20's recruited from spanish b leagues or 2nd divisions of other countries. how many marquees have delivered a return on the investment? del piero?

Shinji Ono.

Was Andy Keogh one? He's done alright.

yep, ono another. i think keogh was. but they keep going on about bums in seats. the standard of football is what will keep people coming back. you think people will go and watch the mariners week after week for luis garcia? no, they'll pop in once, get his autograph and a pic, watch them get belted and never go back. how many of the marquees that have come across clearly haven't given a toss?

the ffa need to focus on improving the standard of both the players and the officials, instead of having pipe dreams of bloody arjen robben or carlos tevez. come on now, it's laughable to write that absolute dross.

Fornaroli?
 
Some of the names mentioned should be targeted while a few are just story fillers

If you're a 35 year old who has had a 15 odd year career in Europe why would you go to butt**** nowhere in China over a Melbourne or Sydney? Surely they've got enough money to not have to do that

he's one of the lesser known guys who has performed very well. im talking the big, fanciful names that they have managed to lure over in the past
It's been hit and miss to date but wouldn't dismiss it completely. Yorke and Ono did well as well as ADP. Fowler not so much. But I'd say the bigger name ones tend to be pretty good.

It's the mid range ones like Aaron Hughes, Koren and Jardel that have sucked
