He played both positions for WSW too.

He was shit for them as well.
It's almost like managers go "this bloke is slow as **** and can't cross - probably make a better centre back".
FFS
Cowburn is not the answer either
He slower than Mullen FFS
Getting picked for the Young Socceroos isn't an achievement
Hoffman and Raheem Sterling played back in the day FFS
Hey I will agree with you Mullen is shit
But no way is he the cause of our downfall
Not even ****ing close
Reckon we can tempt Lahm outta retirement?
I agree with you on this one Member. Cowburn isn't going to change things much at all.
Cowburn had a few decent games at RB last year, he isn't near the level of Hoffman (which isn't a compliment to either) but i feel like he is slightly better with the ball at his feet than Mullen though worse defensively. So he isn't better than Mullen, just different.
If Vujica is at LB than we can't afford to have Cowburn at RB just yet.
Mullen was playing as a defensive mid when he came here wasn't he? He'd moved in front of the back 4 at WSW but wasn't getting any game time so we bought him for his versatility. He does give us that, but he isn't the greatest with the ball at his feet and isn't the quickest bloke in the HAL either. Mullen isn't the cause of our inability to play football. I think our mentality is costing us more than individual performances.
So based on Muppet signing this bloke means exactly what being that we are in agreement he had NFI ??
I struggle to see why you keep digging here
Mullen is a RB and has played many games at HAL level as one
Just because he isnt that good doesnt mean he aint a RB anymore
Probably a controversial idea, but what about playing Hoole at RB? He's got the speed, started at RB on his debut, and most of all, he has the shooting for a defender too.
Chuck him there, frees up a spot for Leilei, Nordstrand, Brown or whoever else up front.
Lowe has a few comments to make on JK and NC in the latest Herald Half Time http://www.theherald.com.au/story/45...de-22/?cs=2439
And he had one three years ago - just peach fuzz though.

Mullen RB Koutrombis LB with Vjuica on bench and Kanta Starting FMD were in trouble tonight
If the season being over was in any doubt.....
Season was over when we lost to Adelaide in Adelaide. PS: anyone else see Dan Mullen post an Instagram pic of himself challenging for a ball against City with the tagline "sexy face" sums up Saturday night. I mean ffs sounds like even some of the players are just laughing off our current form and results. Poor form especially being one of the worst performers in the team. Where is the ****ing mentality to do better.

Reading this is depressing shows how much money we could be spending outside the cap but dont.
Herald article saying we are talking to michael thwaite, roy odonovan and ben khalfallah
Plus a possible release of 11 players.
Can anyone share any more information on plans or talks going on for next year?
let's face it, if we sign Khalfallah, Thwaite, Messi etc they'll all end up playing like the rest of the squad after a month under Jones' guidance, so what's the point, we need to sign a new coach first before we start getting all hopeful and stuff about being competitive... :popcorn:
That Herald article reeks of club propaganda to say they are trying to improve. Whenever I see 'that's the calibre of player we want to attract' it tells me we know they wont come, but the club wants to look like they are trying.
