final score? crowd?

Labinot Haliti!! this is his year! I thought Kwabena Appiah-Kubi was going to be out for abit? he was great when he came on. Who the hell was the left back in the first half lol?

Obviously got a wrong diagnosis. Him and the club confirmed a 6 week groin injury plus having surgery scheduled for today. :lol:

First half was 2-0 to wanderers then for the second half it was basically wanderers V Blacktown City U/20's. The keeper that came on for the last 15 mins or so was the city U/16's keeper.

Kwabena Appiah when he came on was top class even though he is still getting over an injury.

The wanderers left back first half looked he would feel more at home in local park division 4 side. Terrible player. If popovic signs him you know something is rotten.

Mooy was ok but held the ball for too long. Too slow for a-league. Will get hammered.

Basically a 2-0 scoreline against what was also the majority of the Blacktown City U/20's side means wanderers will be A-leagues new whipping boys this year. Blacktown had most of the posession throughout the game but didn't have the firepower upfront to capitalise on the possession. Wanderers really only had 2 shots for 2 quality goals.

Definately wouldn't pay to watch the wanderers in a-league this year. (Except to watch kwabena) the rest are very average players with little to no talent.

I heard about the injury too but then i thought it was Kubi who came on in the second half as number 14. Now you got me thinking that it wasnt Kubi playing in the number 14 jersey :?

Yep Mooy was outstanding, what a player. I didn't think Bridge was to bad, although it wasn't him up against Major in the first half, it was Haliti out on that side with Elrich. Bridge was on the left. He worked hard, tracked back ok and saved his left back a few times.

Bridge? Tracking back?



Send me some of whatever that stuff you're smoking. Please! You're killing me here! :lol:.

Mark Bridge DOES NOT track back. I mean, you ask him what the defensive half of the field is and he'll blank stare you for hours! :lol:. You crack a good joke, buddy!

Western Sydney Wanderers will unveil two foreign signings tomorrow at 10am.

If they are two players from Croatia I'd be so pissed off....aren't we trying to create something new here??

It's gonna be pretty sad and deterring to hear Popovic and Milicic on the sidelines shouting out instructions in Croatian..

Journo's are going to eat this up IMO

:lol: Can't wait for the Daily Telegraph to get on the end of this and run with it. :lol:. Bringing back the effniks in a major way. Gonna be riots at the Derby. Sydney FC, will be the model association football club of Sydney. :lol:

you're dreaming mate

sydney fc is a sinking ship. sfc is litterally toast

and playing in front of 2,000 people

[size=6]Kresinger and Poljak Join the Wanderers[/size]

The NRMA Insurance Western Sydney Wanderers FC today confirmed the signing of their first two foreign imports, with Croatians Dino Kresinger and Mateo Poljak agreeing to terms with the club.

Kresinger arrived in the country on Friday and will have his first training session with the Wanderers today at Blacktown International Sportspark.

The 30-year-old will add to an already strong forward line and also add a large amount of experience to the Wanderers squad.

Before his arrival in Australia, Kresinger has spent his entire playing career in Croatia, playing 11 seasons in the Croatian league across five clubs.

Poljak arrived in Australia just yesterday and will also have his first session with the Wanderers today.

The 22-year-old has represented the Croatian Under 19 side and spent five seasons at the Lokomotiva Zagreb side in the Croatian league.

Coach Tony Popovic is happy to have the Croatians as part of the Wanderers squad.

“It’s great to have the guys here, they are two guys that we have monitored for a while,” Popovic said.

“Dino is someone that is the ultimate professional, he’s been in the game for a long time and wants to do well in Australia,” he added. “Mateo is very technical and he has high aspirations to perform well in Australia, he sees this as a great challenge for him to have and be out of his comfort zone is something that he is looking forward to.”
