Edinburgh Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Sotirio has replaced Llorente in tomorrow's match squad. No reason given. Llorente now listed as out without any reason attached. I wonder if that is significant. StringerBellend 1 Link to comment

Jimspade Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Llorente seemed so promising at the start. WTF happened? Wait a minute...I'm sensing a theme... Also lose one of the L's in Llorente. It's unnecessary. JackDoff 1 Link to comment

Where does a player earning $175k sit? Lol where does it say a million? It says ‘and more’. They’re general brackets, don’t get too concerned by the limitations dude. It’s a general rule. Considering most clubs have structured this way in the past, is say you’re wrong. Link to comment

Well and more is even greater than a million. I'm just saying that this 'general rule' isn't really a rule. It's just how things have panned out and shouldn't be used as any real measure. Considering that you can salary cap bank etc, marquees, loyalty players etc - you shouldn't be using this as a general rule. Link to comment
Hughesy Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 - Bridgey is a no brainer to hold onto for me. Knows the aleague back to front and offers so much experience. Along with Leigh Broxham he’s probably the most valuable squad player in the league imo - Let Roly go. He’s not good enough to waste a foreign spot and I’m getting sick and tired of him fouling players facing their own goal. That’s a cardinal sin that you just can’t commit in football at any level. So many times he can’t help himself and the opposition are handed a get out of jail card. - Mark Birighitti is sitting on the bench at Melb City with barely a look in unless Eugene gets injured. Until I saw him on the big screen the other night I forgot he was even there. I’d be making offers for him, he is better than Vedran on his day, in fact he’s one of the strongest keepers in the league for me - big strong CDM - desperately needed. We can’t keep running with two midgets, it ain’t working matty, Sithslayer1991 and lloydy136 3 Link to comment

WSWJACK Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Good keeper Birighetti, always liked the way he dominated and punched anything in the six yard box, including his own defenders if they got in his way. Sithslayer1991 1 Link to comment

mack Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Zero hope of getting Birighitti, The entire point of City giving him a 3 year deal is because they want him after Galekovic retires or falls out of form before leaving. Link to comment

It’s a system referred to by one of the leagues most successful coaches, reckon I’ll take direction from him before some bloke on a forum. How do you think birraz would look at the situation Mack? Easily a HAL starter, and he’s facing a second season on the bench at the age of 27. Eugene, in his current form, is likely to keep his spot going forwarding. Could be something in it. In the end Vedran does his job, he’s had two brain farts and a few missed passes but he just needs his confidence back Jimspade 1 Link to comment

But that's what they pay you for potentially. We also have heard anything in public from Birighitti or his agents (through a friendly media ear) indicating he's rustling to leave. We also would need to clear out Nizic or Vedran (or accept wasting 3 squad spots on keepers), both of whom have contracts for next season (and Vedran, for well beyond it). It'd also have to mean that City don't just send him back to Europe on loan instead of releasing him. The only way I'd even start to think it might happen is if we start reading articles about Birghitti wanting to leave. Upthehill 1 Link to comment

Any talk of him coming is purely conjecture. As is every single discussion in this thread, since we’ve not been linked with a single player. In fact I’ve seen you post a few pages back about players who’ve not implied a move at all lol mack 1 Link to comment
mack Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Yeah, I was responding to the conjecture/hypothetical about what would need to happen to sign him. Link to comment

The million dollars figure was to highlight the general rule is something arbitrary. Again, what happens to a player on 175k? where do they sit in the 7,7,7 rule? Anyway, I'm just being nit picky since the rule doesn't add up when you first read it. Edited January 12, 2019 by Burztur Link to comment

Can see what you’re saying but He doesn’t want to be sitting on the bench regardless of what he’s being paid, especially if he has ambitions to go OS again in the future. At the same time MC bought him as a starting keeper, they don’t want their money (decent coin you’d think) tied up with someone sitting on the bench. Tbh it’s a similar situation to a couple of our guys. Upthehill 1 Link to comment

If he didn’t rattle off the brackets perfectly, take it up with him. It doesn’t matter where they fit. It’s a general guideline, I’ve already said this. I don’t think you understand what a ‘rule’ is in this context, so this discussion is absolutely pointless. Moving on, did hear from a friend Vidosic has his resume all over linked in again.
