Mariners Squad - HAL 14 - 2018- 2019 - The challenge for Mike Mulvey is over

[Offsider]

Only a modest roll up whilst we were there but a lot of fans would likely have still trying to get back to the coast from work and I gather the rotten weather made for slow traffic.

Or blocked from getting the info on social media .......... The problem when you have feel strongly that you want your local club to be competitive.

Looking at Cisse's FIFA stats, pace and mobility don't look too strong but he is off the charts for strength, aggression and heading.

C’mon mate, fifa ratings don’t tell the whole story.
Football Manager are incredibly realistic.

Met Cisse and Aspro at this evening’s event and very impressed with both of them. They spoke about the need for a strong on and off field culture, so that was great to hear.

Aspro reckons he will be close to ready by round 1 and Cissé is really excited about playing in the HAL. He spoke highly of both MMM and Andrew Young from his time in Thailand and was really looking forward to working with them and Monty. He also mentioned that he knew Olly from when they were at Reading together.

I didn`t even know about it, when was this organized?

Can he score goals too?

Just what we need. We have had plenty of players with pace and mobility who did bugger all.

Of course not but they are a interesting guide. He wouldn't be rated that low with pace if he was quick and vice versa for aggression.

Was all over Mariners social media in the lead up.

My boy got to play StrawHat Camels in FIFA 18 and he was stoked.

Just because you’re paranoid Offsider, doesn’t mean they aren’t out to get you.....

Did it reach here?
I didn`t see anything about it.
We had the Open Mike Night thread on here before.
I must have missed it like everyone else that doesn`t go facebook

I just hope he is a strong leader and good mentor who can run a tight defence.

I like the Cisse signing a lot..
DM and a CB. Huge experience and I’d expect very decent technique and he just looks like a beast. Yeah he’s 34 but give us a good year or 2.
Personally I’d like to see him hold the midfield next to Tommy, given that Cisse miiiiight be a little slow turning and chasing through balls at the back.

But we still don’t know what formation Mulvey is going with.

Lets hope hes not another "jacques faty". Im wonder why he went to Thailand to play?

I got an e-mail announcing it, as I don’t do social media other than forums like this one.

Three skills we have badly missed imo.

442 comment thread (barring pjs starkly contrasted wisdom) all about how poor this signing is and we should be using young Australian players.

People really have zero idea about our club and yet of all the clubs it seems everyone always has a very strong opinion about us.

Took the words right off my keyboard. Sounds like a cranky faty from some of the descriptions. I'm glad I said it now as I can sit back and watch as I get proved wrong. I hope. They say he is good with his head but the photo I saw with his eyes closed and no clue where the ball is does not support that appraisal.
I am hoping that mcging has a breakout year this season. He nearly did last season before getting swept up in the okon fiasco. Would not be unhappy with clisby and mcging as the fullbacks.

442 has maybe 5 decent posters and the rest fall over themselves posting chic memes or just negative drivel.

Having said that, barely a day goes by that I don't have a lurk there.
