And this is why kids get pushed by agents....its not the quality of football, its the coin.

But the coin isn't really there

You take out your big 5 leagues, getting a run at a Ajax Celtic insert huge club and most of those blokes in Europe in the Dutch and Belgium and Scandanavian leagues are not on that much more coin than they are here

The blokes here are ridiculous overpaid for what they are really worth

Issue is in Europe there a bit more intensity and it treated as a legit comp not a joke as it is in this country

He recently had an operation on his leg. I would assume thats a bandage not a sock

Great bit of business by the Jets. Get the transfer fee, then get him back before the season starts anyway

We should be targetting Dimi and Kosta. Sign those two and we're far better off than we were before.

Maybe even a shot at making 7th.

It is also "easier" to go from a lessor league in Europe to a better league in Europe, than it is to go to a better league In Europe from the A League.

Surely, given we had him signed before Ulsan, that he would return to the jets? its a strange termination.

that is if he hasnt got any other offers from Asia or Europe.

Wasn't it written that we had first shot at petratos if he left?

It's for "non footballing reasons"... so who knows.

You would imagine the appeal to link up with his brother would be here still.

Dimi instantly fills the Hoole set piece role.

And the #10 hole. Possibly even the wide player role?
