Sithslayer1991 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 It is a bit concerning up front we don't really have any academy players pushing through but we have in spades in just about every other position on the park. Kinda reflects the Socceroos at the moment with lack of attacking options. Link to post
LeeMarvin Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 7 hours ago, THEWANDERERSPOST said: Confirmed https://mens.nplnsw.com.au/category/featured/ Marconi Stallions FC Coach: Peter Tsekenis Key signings: Chris Hatfield, Stefan Nikolic Player To Watch: Marko Jesic Rising Star: Paolo Laxamana 2020 finish: 7th What to expect in 2021 After another season of what-if, Marconi Stallions will be desperate to finally deliver on their incredible potential this campaign. Coach Peter Tsekenis is back on deck as Stallions head coach and once again will be trying to unlock the secret to consistent performances from his ultra-talented squad boosted with some quality young guns coming through the system. Marconi signed strikers Chris Hatfield and Charles Lokolingoy this offseason however only Hatfield will don the club jersey this campaign after Lokolingoy was snapped up by A-League outfit Wellington Phoenix. The former Sydney FC and Brisbane Roar striker was set for a key role this season but now the Stallions must plan for life without their star recruit. Coming in as a late signing, young Western Sydney Wanderers gun Stefan Nikolic will also hope he can make an impression at the “Palace”. Martin Fernandez was a breakout player last season and returns in 2021 along with the majority of the 2020 squad including Nenad Vekic, Mitch Mallia and Marko Jesic. The Speranza brothers Giorgio and Roberto will also figure as go to players for stability as the club hope to revisit their glory days once more. Consistency is the key for Marconi and if they can finally find a way to deliver consistent results than they could be the team to watch in 2021. Peter Tsekenis? Wow, as soon as I hear that name memories of a magnificent head of hair back in the 80s come rushing back... Link to post

Ah, the memories the word Bulut brings back! “If Bulut” had stayed away from certain people he could actually have gone to maccas without getting arrested knew the offside rule had been a team player Hadnt fought NTS in the locker room had shown up for training on time like everyone else hadnt said one thing in the media and done the opposite on the pitch had stayed away from cocaine was a good football player But maybe most importantly, if he had not scored that goal against the Smurfs in the smoke, in front of the RBB... Water under the bridge. What counts is that Duke is back. To be fair... he was onside. Potkorok, mack, MartinTyler and 1 other 4 Link to post

He could have been 10m onside and the var would have still given it offside. You have to remember which team he was playing for at the time. alexd 1 Link to post

Sydney Olympic play against Sydney United 58 today at 4pm. So, I'll probably watch it to see how Monge and Adam go (that's if they are playing). Plus, Sydney United 58 signed a former Wanderers youth player, Andrea Agamemnonos. He was previously playing for some 3rd division Cypriot club. Link to post

Muller is an option at striker as well. With Ibini and the four strikers you've mentioned above, hard to imagine Nikolic even making the team sheet. Link to post
