ADELAIDE UNITED 2012

[Il Duce]

Rini Va Fan Coolen........

anyway rini maybe one of those managers that is better training up youth, but i do have a feeling the head of youth is adelaide united's way of putting rini on gardening duty ala phil brown at hull.

personaly i would of rather stubbins and veart be bought in or even mori be given a shot (done fantastic coaching city), however i dont have a problem with kossie but he is just under caretaker role and luckly for us the a-league has finals etc so all we have to do is finish 6th and it looks like an ok season. The only thing i want from kossie is to make the team more competative and put 100% that is all.

Incorrect, its been a laughing stock ever since they started (5 nil ring a bell? Pissant ring a bell?). Just a bigger one now.
And they're not involved with Norf, in fact it got rid of a couple of people most are glad to see the back of.
I love watching them crash and burn, there is not one thing that I like about them and even less now.
Hopefully they keep forking out 4.3 mill to their players while my Mariners scrape by week to week paying their team who is top of the table 2 mill!

What a circus of an organisation......... Kosmina How long until we have a speedos press conference down the beach

Most of what you say is true and I am embarassed by them at the moment.
Maybe Kossie might bring back some good times and hopefully get us playing well in time for the ACL where unlike the Aussie sides we have actually done well

[Wedgie]

Actually as much as I disliked Kosmina (he was one of the main reasons I disliked Adelaide United from the start because of his previous attitude as a commentator to Adelaide City) he does bring passion to the job and he's working for different people now. I honestly think its a good appointment.

I honestly think its a good appointment.

What a disgrace!

My opinion of what needs to change on-field:

1) Play Djite centrally up front with van Dijk where he belongs in a 4-4-2 with a diamond midfield.
2) Play Vidosic central, in behind the two from wish 1)
3) Drop Boogaard, he makes too many horrible, horrible mistakes. McKain and Susak as the central defensive pairing.
4) Play Ramsay wide in midfield and not at left back.
5) Find another left back in case Cassio never comes back.
6) Use Levchenko as the holding midfielder when fit, no more Usucar or Dilevski please.
7) Give Galekovic the captaincy.
8 ) Sign Nathan Burns.

That's it, I think.

My opinion of what needs to change on-field:

1) Play Djite centrally up front with van Dijk where he belongs in a 4-4-2 with a diamond midfield. Very overated, not convinced about the hype
2) Play Vidosic central, in behind the two from wish 1)
3) Drop Boogaard, he makes too many horrible, horrible mistakes. McKain and Susak as the central defensive pairing. Worst player in A-League. got plenty better in state league than this muppet
4) Play Ramsay wide in midfield and not at left back.
5) Find another left back in case Cassio never comes back.
6) Use Levchenko as the holding midfielder when fit, no more Usucar or Dilevski please.
7) Give Galekovic the captaincy.
8 ) Sign Nathan Burns. And Flores AND Leckie

That's it, I think.

Agree Jim, Djite has been very disappointing

[TOS_lad23]

Greg Griffen on the world game is dribbling some absolute tripe!!! what a total farce this has become, how can he seriously expect Coolen to stay at the club in any capacity, and then expect Valkanis to just move aside from his youth position? Well and truely the laughing stock of the A-League

That's it, I think.

Leckie only left at the end of last season, doubt he'd turn his back on the Bundesliga after not even 12 months. Would love to see Flores back but can't see it happening.

McKain hasn't been at his best this season yes, to me he looks like a guy who isn't handling the pressure of the captaincy all that well. He has said himself that he's not sure that he's a natural leader. More reason to give Galekovic the captaincy and try to free McKain up a bit.

Djite hasn't been in games properly because Coolen has been playing him out of position. The guy is not a winger.

Greg Griffen

Gees he came over badly on the radio the other night. He appears absolutely useless. Almost as feeble as the infamous Mike Rann "Go Panthers".

AUFC would be much better off with Greg Graffin at the helm...

Every North fan I know including myself dont have a high opinion of the man who was on our board "by invitation" for a while.

[Booney]

How bloody funny is Kosmina? I heard him say, ( along the lines of ) "...we want to retaliate first...."

If only we had have kept Smeltz...... .......

We wouldnt be able to keep him, he is a club whore. Never stays at one club too long, think he is trying to play at every A-League club

Not trying to deny that. One of many f**k ups by the club, just wondering how long he would have ended up staying anyway.
