Socceroo superstar keen to end career in A-League

SOCCEROO star Brett Emerton loves the lifestyle on the Central Coast and wouldnt say no to playing with the Mariners in the A-League when his career in Europe ends.

Emerton has been on the coast this week working with Socceroo physiotherapist Phil Coles at Hills St Sports Medicine Centre, Gosford.

Emerton suffered a serious knee injury playing for Blackburn Rovers in the English Premier League and had a knee reconstruction on February 18.

He is training up to five hours a day in a bid to be ready for the start of next seasons Premier League in August. He is also desperate to get back into Pim Verbeeks Socceroos squad ahead of the 2010 World Cup.

Coles, who is from the coast and spent two years working at Hills St Sports Medicine Centre, felt a change of scenery would help Emertons recovery.

Its frustrating not to be able to play but I love the lifestyle on the coast, its been nice to be able to do my work and then go for a walk on the beach and relax, said Emerton.

Emerton, who hopes to be stronger then ever when he returns to the field for Blackburn, has taken a keen interest in the A-League.

It definitely interests me, Id love to play in it one day, he said.

He never mentions wanting to play for us, just in the A-League. My $10 goes on him playing for West Sydney.

All we need to do is rename it the Brett Emerton Academy and we are shoe-ins. Sweet

Born in Bankstown, went to Westfield Sports, played as a junior for Campbelltown Gunners (NSW), Macarthur (NSW), Marconi (NSW) (see FFA site) before playing for Olympic in the NSL. He's a Westie through and through.

[Sym]

[Arabmariner]

Just your standard pc answer.

I mean while in Gosford he's hardly going to say "you wouldn't catch me dead playing for that lot" is he?

A nothing news article to fill some space in the local rag imo.

 

[Sym]

[FFC Mariner]

Him and Lucas for W Syd team wasnt it?

 

[Paolo]

Would prefer to read about the coasts pressing issues tbh....like old people complaining about roundabouts etc etc

There's f**k all wrong with roundabouts.

Just the f**kin Australians that don't know how to use them properly!!

 

[Sacko]

Yeah, what's with all these trees, cant we get some more concrete shipped in?

BTW - Getting back on topic, isn't it a bit weird that the fittest man alive goes to Gosford for his rehab!

The Americans think they are a WMD!
