A tradesmen can only work with the equipment provided, Deans can only work with what he has got. Compare our squad to most, we don't have the firepower to compete with others.
I’d say our success rate with foreign players is incredibly poor.
Odonovan is Aussie now right?

I feel like Deans is doing an okay job, all things considered.
Not really satisfied with an “okay job” though. Not an “okay” team.
Can I see Deans recruiting strong talent to improve our squad? Probably not.
Should try and get any Olyroos players not getting regular game time and at least do the nation a service and get them some match fitness ahead of Olympics.

Imo, we are in a pretty good position in terms of squad retention and a clean slate. If Western Unite and MacArthur can get a decent team together from scratch, there’s no reason we can’t. If central coast can be winning the comp, why can’t we.
