DeeDee Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 How about a sneaky loan play for Daniel Arzani. He would thrive in that free role Kamau had this season passed. Any new news on Mo Toure? Link to comment

DeeDee Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 2 minutes ago, iamwesternsydney said: He was terrible last night, held on to the ball too long Yeah to an extent. But I thought he retains that class touch and got us out of trouble earning free kicks, but didn't settle on what he wanted to do with the ball. Set up that great chance for a sweaty goal with McGree. But anyway think hed be a great shout. Never make a decision of one performance, against a good side too might we add. Otherwise youd never sign a player. LetsPele, MartinTyler and DinoPresinger 3 Link to comment
Sithslayer1991 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Daniel Arzani what can you say. There were moments last night against Argentina that were reminiscent of his old Melbourne City and Socceroo World cup days but then there were other moments like his wussy pass that lead to Metcalfe getting his yellow card. I can see why European clubs have not taken to him, entirely regressed and hasn't improved in the areas he needed to. I am not sure whether we should do the sneaky to be honest. Link to comment

Wanderingbeersclub Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Does this seem about right so far OUT >IN Duke>Hemed Kamau>??? Dorrans>??? Mutch>??? Baccus>Ugarkovic* Cox/SMac>???? Muller>Najjarine Ziegler>???? McGowan>Williams Put Ugarkovic as Baccus replacement as was originally signed for this coming season and I think club knew Baccus was likely to depart. Still plenty of work to do. Though I still think one of the problems last season was having two many 'first teamers'. Couldn't possibly keep them all happy. I'd be happy to see us replace Kamau/Cox with one quality player. Same with Dorrans/Mutch BohemianDublin 1 Link to comment

Can see flashes, but i can't take to guy somehow, he also wastes possession and collapses to the floor too easily for my liking. Don't doubt there is a good player in there somewhere but happy to pass on him. Link to comment

Stokz Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) Arzani has definitely regressed. I think the injuries really stuffed him up, lost a lot of pace. He's legs look like units, which is good for bodybuilding / rugby league but for a quick explosive winger.... not so much. Edited July 23, 2021 by Stokz BoyFromTheWest 1 Link to comment
BoyFromTheWest Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I'm not convinced we'd have made a 'luvrative offer' for Mutch. He was off the bench mostly, solid and experienced but nothing exceptional. His best days were more promise/potential that never arrived. I'd hope for than what we saw. I'm still expecting some decent signings to come, on top of Hemed, Williams and Najjarine. I dont think Hemed is like for like replacement for Duke or Kamau. Hopefully he will be a significant goal scorer, which we haven't really had. We need another attacker who can run with the ball, work hard and complement Hemed. We need Williams to centre the defence and get them firing. We also need a solid DM to work with Ugarkovic. Link to comment

He had an amazing performance last night and didn't get enough credit for it. He bossed their centre backs the whole game, and then you'd see him running back into midfield, he's ace Arnold got it right putting him in as the leader DinoPresinger 1 Link to comment
