I still think Kanta will come good. We all know what he is capable of, no one ever wants to be out of form, but 2 months out from the start of the season is not a bad time for it. Better than 2 months after the start of the season!
Its great to have celeski for competition, he is a very versatile player, can basically play right across the midfield, I would even give him a run at number 10 until flores is fit. So I don't really think it will be either Kanta or Celeski all the time, if they both play well I would say they will both be in the starting 11.
This is what I’m hoping for tooQuote:

I know its a long way from season still, but the longer he is here training the better it is.
I think this will be the case and we will play a narrow diamond. However, Celeski will replace Hoole in my lineup. The focus will be on Celeski looking to be the outlet for the side. The fullbacks will need to be providing support too.Quote:

The benefit playing Celeski over Kanta is his first intention to play forward. I'd be happy with this also.Quote:

I always thought it was only 1 and that's gone to Celeski. It'll only be if they've somehow moved Ox to a youth contract?
Even if that was the case doubt we'd have any cap left, apart from an aussie marquee (i.e Paartalu in Jan).
Sounds fishy to me that Visa issueQuote:

Stubbins still does not know when Ecuadorian striker Edson Montano will arrive in Australia

“When? Not sure.”
My preferred lineup
--------------------------Birraz
Neville----------Madaschi------Kew------Carney
-------------------------Celeski
-----------Hoole--------------------Steele
-------------------------Flores
--------------Jeronimo
-----------------------------Griffiths
Res
Kennedy
Kantarovski
Pepper
Goodwin
Montano

Depends. One of the arms of Buildev was a plastic chair manufacturer so we got a good deal on them. If we still have Tinks, I say no.Quote:

I'm stoked with the new acquisitions. Despite the result from the FFA game on Tuesday, there was a lot to like about Steele and Jeronimo (to name a few).
Bring it on.
With some of our best players usually on the bench there's no reson why we havent already had these installed.Quote:

If I recall correctly, Con bought the ones used in to 2000 Olympics. Kind of blue metal with perspex, bus shelter esque things.Quote:

Would bring in Goodwin for Hoole to play 11, Joel the 7 and Jeronimo the 9.
Kew is our #1 CB so I think Reegz and Madaschi will fight it out for the 2nd spot.
Reckon Kanta's best hope of getting into the side is at RB this season, should play him there if Neville is not fit....still better option than Pepper or Gallaway.
Kanta/Neville----Kew----Reegz/Madaschi------Carney
Celeski-----------------Steele
Flores
Griffo---------Jeronimo-----------Goodwin
Why is no one mentioning Virgilli in these starting lineups?
Looks like you've all played into GVE's plan to successfully send him into obscurity. Well done.
Maybe because he is absolutely shit and has never done a thing of note in the A-League?
If Virgilli was given the same opportunities as say Tarek Elrich or Jason Hoffman he would be a regular starter. Both Hoffman and Elrich showed potential and to his credit GVE stuck with them even when many thought they may never make it as a-league regulars.
Virgilli on the other hand has been sporadically used and never really given an opportunity to grow into the role.
Some players thrive on being thrown into the deep end and others don't. However, the fast learners aren't always the best fit in the long term either as they can also tend to peak early and fade away.
Who would you leave out to make way for Virgili?Quote:

I think his biggest downfall is his own belief in himself (maybe that is a result of being "nurtured" by GVE)....he is a decent enough footballer with some good qualities but needs to back himself more and just go for it.
Virgili came on last game and proceeded to continually get the ball taken off him with ease. he also made poor decisions and ignored open players inside him so he could try and go past the left back in front of him, who incidentally handled him with ease. Great player at npl level but just hasn't warranted a regular place in first grade yet and doubt he ever will. Agree with above, make or break season for him and happy to be proven wrong.
The issue with Chili is it is all between his ears.
In the NYL he just puts his head down and goes forward and backs himself and as a result he carves it up.
In the HAL he seems plagued with doubt and won't back himself.The amount of time he gets the ball and turns back to his goal particularly when in a good position is ridiculous.
Against glory we had 3 on 4 and he had the ball 10 yards in from the sideline and 20 yards out from goal and a little bit of room from the fullback. Perfect time to put your foot down and have a go whilst you have bypassed the opponents midfield and see what happens.
No Chilli runs back towards his goal and 20 seconds later Taylor Regan has the ball and Perth have all 11 behind the ball
Thats where he is letting himself down
Close, can beat a player but delivery is woeful.Quote:

The only issue with Virgilli is he isn't given any game time. Pretty simple.
Ridiculous comments. GVE may be gone, but his mantra lives on in the many of you.
If la bala just got his chance
Virgili is just as, or more, frustrating to watch than Henrique for the Roar. Griff in however many games he got to play at RM last season showed how amazingly unreal it is to have a player play RM that actually has confidence on the ball.
Apart from that run for Heskey's goal, which was admittedly brilliant, Virgili has shown SFA at senior level for a very long time. He's just a passenger when on the field IMO.
Last season, maybe. The year before, he played in all but TWO of the games, starting 11 and coming off the bench in 15. Did he do anything of note in those 25 games? Maybe one or two assists.Quote:
