It would be Hoff v Adelson. From what people have said from the trials Adelson has been impressive.Quote:

Adelson has been signed for two season.
would've liked us to move Alessi on first considering he is a straight replacement in being the back-up right back
I also wonder, with the signing of this new bloke and having Vujica as an actual left back if that means Cowburn will potentially get game time this season in his actual position which to the best of my knowledge is in the midfield
We now have 6 fullbacks on our books. 6. 26% of our available squad spots on 2 positions.
who's the 6th one? hoff, georgevski, adelson, vujica and alessi are the only dedicated fullbacks i believe we haveQuote:

So you're saying we shouldn't leak too many goals this season. Please refer to my avatar when considering my comments.:rofQuote:

Also, don't think anyone talked about him, but did that Pat Langois bloke play alright in the two pre-season games he played?
Anyone here of interest?

Sign Mullen just so Stanny has a meltdownQuote:

Gombau thinks otherwise and any player he thinks is socceroos level at any age group, we should be looking to give gametime toQuote:

Yeah that is the weakest fan boy attitude I have seenQuote:

Based on your wank logic Moss as he an international should start every game as he a NT player and Duncan isn't??
Has nothing to do with performance or ability etc
Just select blokes based on whether they played for NT at Yoof level or up
Might work well on Football computer games but this the real world
And Jamie Carragher was a striker at youth level. Sorry, but he's played 46 of his 47 appearances at fullback. Even for the Olyroos (or whoever it was he went away with) he played fullback. He has to considered a fullback despite what he played in the youth (which I think you're correct in saying he was a midfielder).Quote:

As for Langlois - not seen any of the pre-seaosn games this year unfortunately but he's getting some time alongside NTS which can't be bad for his development. Hopefully one for the future because it would be good for the Emerging Jets and Youth team to start supplying more to teh first team.
Reason I would like to see him used differently is primarily because, as you said we have 6 fullbacks, even if Alessi is moved on that's still 5 which is one too many.Quote:
