Yes it does. You specifically referred to an injury replacement in your previous post. Injury replacements are like for like.
Get some random Chinese one, fills the chinese quota.
Chinese version of Lee Ki Ji, get on it miller.
Spot on. We are more likely to find a solid left back in China than a forward with any skill. Particularly on the money we will be paying.
for just $2 a day.....
Been doing some scouting for a few Chinese signings. If we can't fit them under the salary cap I'll be happy to store them at my house.

Find Millers comments interesting re: not signing anymore minimum wage players in reference to the clash with the NPL select side ie Virgili and Moriyasu. Brennan and Pav for eg I assume would be minimum wage, with Nabbout currently trialling, he probably would not fit in the minimum wage category but he surely wouldn't be considered higher than the next tier of players ie probably Cooper, Cowburn....surely?
We are talking about a team that sacked a player who scored nine goals in twenty two appearances - so I wouldn't let logic enter into the debate.
He's not had a lot of game time given he was behind Berisha at Victory but when he did play he did make a difference and showed some class.
I'd give Nabbout a contract and punt some of the shit we already have on the books that's failed to make the grade.
Brennan for example wouldn't be as good as Virgilli in my opinion - and thats no endorsement to sign Vigilli either.

Really don't want to be drawn into another Triff debate, overall as a visa player he just did not impress enough in those 22 appearances to warrant another season in the A League.
Triff wasnt sacked - he left. Big difference.

No difference at all. Miller constantly whined how unhappy he was with him and the bloke left because he didn't feel welcome.
Then you have Sash who was top scorer and given the boot as well / did not get another contract.
The club hates goal scorers and will do all they can to get rid of them.
Go Jets.
Impress who?
You?
Glad you're offering the contracts champ.
Who you signing this week, another bloke that can't get a run in front of carney arms Connor Pain?
Just to be clear there is no bigger wanker statement than this and is further evidence why the club rightfully hates it's fans.
Braedyn Crowley scored another hat trick today playing in the Victorian NPL, another promising forward sent on his way
Clearly he did not impress the club enough , the ones that count i would think.
At least he could score a penalty

and that's fine, because they make the decisions and earn the scrutiny and or praise (gosh darn there's all that negativity again).
But they are also the same people who have maintained a level of failure for a decade so back them in all you want guys.
Fixed.
They're not the same people though. The footballing department has changed so often it's not funny and we've had new CEO's every season.
The only people with any continuity with the club over an extended period of failure are Ando as kit man, and all of us as fans.
