I wish Arnie would stop talking up the prospects of teams he coaches before big events.

Just keep quiet, and let it be a pleasant surprise if they do well.

I have really enjoyed watching a lot of new emerging Aussie talent, with higher technical qualities than the past.

I read a depressing article on here, where  Arnie cited comprehensive  data thats showed that foreign journeymen  were taking precedence over young Aussies in the A L. This phenomenon  stifles development of players aged between 17-23, which is critical for long term development.

Of  course it is fantastic having players like ADP, Juninho, Mat Del Pierre, Zwanzuik, Castro, Broich, playing in the A League, but too many more experienced  journeymen playing in the A L, only marginally better than young locals, is really depressing.
