Reds in Sydney

[Le Chef]

Yeah we (Sydney) had lots of players out too. Also, our best player who smashed the leagues player of the season polls and was central to our play, was out. It was obvious that we missed him a lot.

Still........

So its on par with UK league 1 or slightly better ?

I'd say somewhere between L1 and Championship. Standard is increasing steadily though.

[Buzzo]

Why wasn't Fowler involved?

Probably because he has a massive gut these days.

I watch a fair few A league games. For attacking play it's more fun than our league. It reminds me of the English game back in the 80's. It's not full of overpaid players. These lot go at each other, you get tasty full blooded tackles and some great goals. The defences are no where near as organised. Hence more entertaining, football in a purer way. Saying that this year I haven't seen anywhere near as much as last season. It amazed me the amount of goals that came from players getting to the byline and getting crosses in. It's out of fashion over here, it's all about ploughing through the middle.
