This is why he has adapted well to our fairly physical A League while other technical players have failed.
Our Uruguayan from the first season, Corbo had that mongrel mentality too and would never take a backward step as soon as he crossed that white line.
Reckon it's worth a shot sussing out 1 or 2 Uruguayans for next season, a LB and a striker preferably.
I have been searching Uruguayan strikers off contract or coming off contract on transfermarkt, quite a few that I reckon would be worth a look at. Or if city don't fork out the marquee dollars fornaroli now probably deserves we can always throw a marquee spot at him for next season assuming we end up with wealthy owners
