Notably, United are hosting a match at Adelaide Oval in Round 3 against the Victory. Also for some inane reason they are hosting 3 home matches in a row on Friday 16th, 23rd and 30th March. They also start with two games away and finish with two games away.

Carrusco becomes an Australian citizen, is he signed at the Reds ATM?

No, he is gone

Signed elsewhere? Noticed he has a football academy here

Not that I'm aware of, just told he wouldn't be getting a game at AU

He wanted more money than United willing to offer.

The new coach thinks he is cooked and didn't want him regardless of price

Exactly. I was just using the club's line.
This is a departure I don't disagree with.

Adelaide United sign 30 year old defender Ersan Gülüm on a season-long loan from Chinese side Hebei China Fortune

Who?

He isn't too flash but will fill a role. Wouldn't be expecting much from him

Mariners have made a heap of signings, some look OK too.

Gulum is playing as an Australian

A Dutch winger signed Johan Absalonsen

The 31-year-old joins the Reds having spent his entire career in Denmark, most notably with top-flight sides Brøndby IF, Odense Boldklub, SønderjyskE, and FC Copenhagen

Mariners sign young Aussie goalkeeper Tom Glover from Tottenham, hopefully another Matt Ryan..

Man Citys kit, whoops I mean Melbourne City. Sydney will be happy.

Surely enough colours to choose from that they don't need to pick sky blue

I thought they haven't been allowed to have that kit due to Sydney. Is it their main or second kit?

Main kit, their away kit is red and white.

Wowee. Surprised FFA allowed them (then again it happens all the time overseas so it's not that big a deal)
