We've also got a lot of depth at the moment which we will definitely need when the games overlap with the A-League games. It will be a test for the squad and Arnie. 12 games in 48 days in the leadup to the Grand Final including trips to China and Korea. The Mariners really need to get a good result first up in China and the first two home games. Assuming they make the Grand Final the trip to Korea in the week before may be a virtual second XI.

Quote:Amini talks up Arnold influence 5 December 2011-SBS EXCLUSIVE Mustafa Amini praised the role of Central Coast coach Graham Arnold in his successful off-season move to Bundesliga champion Borussia Dortmund. Arnold unearthed Amini last season with the Mariners and the emerging star was loaned back to the A-League club after signing with Dortmund. The 18-year-old has spent most of the season overcoming osteitis pubis but was among the Mariners' best players against Adelaide, scoring in his side's 4-0 win. After the match he paid tribute to Arnold, saying the former Australia coach was influential in his move abroad. "He's (Arnold) been a huge help with the move and everything," Amini said. "He’s been there offering advice and the way he’s got us playing is excellent right now. “I’m trying not to think about it too much but the fact I’m going there has got me working extra hard to improve my game. "It will be environment that will bring out the best in me. “I’ve been working a lot on building up by body, improving my strength. I was taking pain killers to get through the World Cup but broke down when I got back with the groin problems. "But I think thanks to the work I’ve done with the fitness conditioner Andrew Clark I am now in the best physical state of my life.” Amini said with each win, Central Coast is gaining confidence it can avenge its Grand Final loss to Brisbane Roar last season. “Definitely we can do as well and even better than last year,” he said. “There’s not a team we can’t beat in the competition. “We have a tremendous team structure, there are no egos and we all fight for each other. We’re all equals and we all believe in each other. “We showed in going to Sydney and winning 3-2 a couple of weeks back and we’re going on with it now. “We‘re a team which can keep the ball, it‘s something we’ve worked on. We try and keep it on the ground and play our way through teams.” http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/a-league/news/1084171/Amini-talks-up-Arnold-influence

Yeah I seem to remember Perez carving you up last season. Flores had nothing that game, could only watch in awe of his fellow Argentine :D
Yeah but Simon's been showing some flair and ball skills too this season. Apparently Arnie's been working with him one on one teaching him how to be a complete striker (obviously a former Socceroos striking legend himself). I didn't know that. Simon has improved out of sight in the last two seasons so I though someone had been working with him. I was probably one of his biggest critics in the past but I started to warm to him last year and he has won me over completely this season. Yep I'm in the same boat. We've got Arnie to thank for the new Matt Simon :)

Best manager in the league. Ange has done well - but he has had the benefit of bringing in some great talent from overseas with Broich , the hyphen and berisha.

Apparently Arnie's been working with him one on one teaching him how to be a complete striker (obviously a former Socceroos striking legend himself). Oh for sure, I honestly think Simon gets a BIT of a bum rap because people tend to ignore that fact he has consistently scored goals in this league because they are just blinded by the fact he isn't flashy i spose. and yeas, that was the game where I suddenly realised how good Perez actually was when i saw him live at Hindmarsh. More to the point the fact that he ran a lot more than i gave him credit for. We played you again a month later in Gosford and got demolished too. Flores was prone to being shut entirely out of games by teams that sat up his arse all game. happened more towards the end of the season and also at the end of the group stages of the ACL actually too.

He has done well in the #10 position as I have said before , but he can be a bit of a blunt instrument at times whereas Amini is almost too good , bringing players into the game who then struggle to control the ball and play that beautiful to watch football. BTW I thought Hutch last week was no where near as good as he was in the first game back , lost his footing , passing was not as accurate etc - , ..... maybe the heat ?

Does he or Simon ever drop back into that Amini role for you guys? happened once or twice last season didn't it? Christ I hate playing you guys. I swear you have always given us the hardest games even when we were on that losing streak to Melbourne. Simon must be the most horrible striker to mark in the league. he is just so freaking fit and strong and puts himself about like a maniac. I dont think he's "dirty" as such but I imagine he is like that even in training games. Just a hard, fit maniac ;) Not looking forward to Friday lads, not sure a lot of the faithful are... Actually scrap that, you guys are going down. yeah. You suck etc etc

Yeah he's started most of our games at CAM cause Musty has been injured. Did a solid job too. Who knew he had it in him?

Hmmm pretty much as suspected
Seems like you have your entire first X1 available if im not mistaken...
Is Mcbreen available? Has he played much this year?
Ibini is my fave player of yours I think though
Hope he gets a start Friday night but doesn't decide the outcome of course ;)

..McGlinchey......................Bozanic..
........................Amini........................
...........Simon..................Ibini...........

So someone asked on our forum for best X1 line ups
Someone care to give me what they see as playing on Friday night taking into account any injuries or suspensions?
My guess is you will see this from us as we have no Cassio or Vidosic and Boogard is suspended but I think Van Dijk is back and possibly Levchenko but who cares...
................Eugene............
Watson.....McKain...Susak.....Usucar
........Dilevski...Barbiero.......
Caravella...................Ramsay
..............Djite
................VanDijk
Of course that's just a guess but I'm interested to see what you guys line up like coz i confess i have seen very little of CCM games this season as I barely have time to watch ANY games other than United's this season unfortunately
