Labinot Haliti

had a great game on Saturday, definete standout, hope we get more of the same with Labi

Maybe on for 'unpopular opinions' as Haliti is something of a popular figure I know......................

But went missing in action tonight, as he tends to do when he starts games.

Hasn't scored in a competitive match, since giving his lucky white boots to a young kid a few months ago.

Coincidence, I think not.

Find that kid and get those boots back!!!

I miss seeing his shirt off.

Hope he scores again soon. 

Speaking of shirts, can they hurry up and release an ACL shirt with a star so I can get his name on the back of it?

is it me or has haliti worked on dropping his shoulder and turning? seems to do it so well this season especially in the champs league.

apart from not scoring, Haliti has impressed me so far this season.

Apparently looking for more game time ... Hmmm ... I've always thought of him as a bit of a super-sub as he always seemed to have done his best work off the bench.

I'd be a bit sorry to see Labi go, but am also excited by the opportunity of signing someone new and talented ... Timmy Cahill, anyone?

I'd be sorry to see him go too but probably the right time if he moves in the January transfer window as there will be plenty of games in the New Year to give the likes of Sotirio a good run and also any incoming players. I wonder who the others are? Kubi? Trifiro? probably time for them to move on too but for different reasons !!

Usual guesswork from the media. No quotes from the player, his manager or the club, didn't name the other players and spent half the article interviewing a player from another team about their preferred position.

While Haliti has done his share of hard work, he really gets on my nerves, chooses wrong option 1 too many times.

Listen I love Haliti and will always be thankful for THAT goal in the rain at CCM, one of the goal we will always remember. But I also find him ***** frustrating, especially so when he starts games.

I would welcome him staying with us but at the same time if we wanted to leave then good luck to him, might be a good time for him to try something new and for WS.

How good would it be if Labi gets 15 goals this season. He has missed so many tap ins, hopefully with a bit of luck and form he can get on a roll.

We won't have the volume of games that require mass rotation with only 1 game a week. With this being the case, I can't see Labi getting any sort of run of games together that will allow him to hit some form. He is going to need to take the one or two opportunities he'll get presented during the season & force Popa to pick him over bridge, Castelen, Sotirio & Santa.

How this guy managed to avoid the cut is beyond me, he was WAY beyond the level required, very selfish at times too....

He's still under contract, that's how. Unless he has a stellar year he'll be gone by the end of next season I'd say. Might be the same for Santalab and Cole depending on their seasons.

Still love him for that goal in the rain at CCM season 1

I just heard a that Haliti and Poljak have signed with the Jets!!!

Nows theres a rumour for you

If you go off and play like a beast for Newcastle I'll be so ******* pissed off

What's the bet he betters last season figures of 1 goal in 30 odd games?

he'll score 3 goals,

unfortunately those goals will be every time WSW meet Newcastle next season.

Going to miss this guy too, he was synonymous for everything WSW stood for just like MP, but not as much as a central figure on the field or with the fans as Mateo

That goal he scored in front of us at Gosford won't be forgotten & just another one of those amazing moments so many former WSW have given us fans over the past few years!

He celebrated a goal like I would if I scored for wanderers.

I feel for Labi. 

His goal scoring abilities deserted him after he gave his season 13/14 pair of white boots, to a poor kid playing football with his mates, in a Parramatta park one day. The orange boots Nike gave him for 14/15 season just didn't work the same.

Thanks for the memories it's been an amazing journey i will never forget it #wsw #rbb pic.twitter.com/d9HzhxvV3j

Must be gutting for him

Poor bloke, out for the season with an ACL injury.

Barely saw any game time.

Newcastle Jets winger Labinot Haliti's A-League season is over after he sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

Haliti limped off the field with a knee injury during the first half of Newcastle's 1-0 loss to Sydney FC at Hunter Stadium on Saturday, with the injury later deemed to be more severe than first thought.


"Very disappointed for Labi, he'll be out indefinitely until the end of the season," coach Scott Miller confirmed on Wednesday.

Ouch!!

I saw him do it on the weekend & it wasn't like a normal ACL tear where it is innocuous. When he did it, his knee bent in a really awkward position & it didn't look good. Apparently he was going to play on but was taken off as a precaution otherwise it could have done something similar to the Bournemouth bloke.

Strange that when he was taken off he was taken to the dressing room where they said it was all clear. Bizzare news & gutted for him!
