What happened with Pavlesic then? He hasn't played 3-times and likely won't. He signed some paperwork and he's tied. Can we do that? It seems that makes it easier to switch allegiances than stay which is kinda backwards. It feels a lot like FIFA/Europe cooking the rules to favour themselves.
Metcalfe can score goals too. It's about getting chances to do so and they've been rare. Metcalfe has a good football brain but you could see within 60 seconds goe smart Nisbet is.
overrated would imply everyone is singing his praises
no better time than now. Any update on vellupilay?
If someone has already played officially at youth level he can switch once only. This is the paperwork that applies to Pavlesic. I still think any player who switches had no commitment to us anyway and we are better off at national team level without them.
I have been thinking on this and there is a sticking point for me. The WC now show cases your talent to club recruiters around the world. Specially for players who do not come from the traditional footballing nations - ditto the managers. For those who were born in football countries like the Netherlands and now claim Indonesian allegiances, it may give them exposure as to what they can offer under different managers.
Laugh if he declares for us and poppa doesnt select him anyway because poppaball
Jedinak is DM Metcalfe is a winger for his club. He still played around the box for Arnie. Because he couldnt take anyone 1 on 1 so.arnie moved him around. Yes i do expect him to score some goals in his 21 games for the roos especially he missed so many good chances.
Picking him in the squad and then not including him in the team sheet says he isn't wanted. Only then has he looked elsewhere. Solely on Popovic's shoulders if he plays for Greece.
I've said it before but Metcalfe is a natural wing back in Popa's current 3-4-3, 5-4-1, 5-2-3 formation.
I tend to agree with this sentiment.
They play for the club as is normal. The window doesn't technically start until a few days after and they don't need to be released by the club until the following Monday (I think, it may be tuesday as they are playing in Australia). They may need to temper some of their celebrations as I don't think the coach would be thrilled if they turned up unfit because of self inflicted stuff.
I don’t think he’s a natural wingback, he played as a box to box midfielder at Melb city plus being a wingback I don’t think he will give you natural width if he’s on the right plus you already have Bos and potentially Farrell down the line to do that on the left.
