Don't Blame Me, I Voted for Zdrilić: The Ufuk Talay Thread

Probably could also go in the TV streaming thread, but it seems it is our turn again for A-League All Access. This one is on Uffy and the derby:

So there’s a curse associated with ALAA right?

Didn’t we win the preliminary final?

We did but that one was more from their their perspective wasn’t it? I cant remember that well.

Ufuk’s speech:

Didn’t really know where else to put this.

But just had a look at the ladder, and after having a shocking F/A tally (not that it really matters any more…), but we’re finally on an even par after 13 rounds.

We’ve also scored 24 goals which isn’t terrible given the start to the seaosn.

Joe Lolley - 8
Fabio - 5
Robert Mak - 2
Max Burgess - 2
Jaiden Kurcharski - 2
Jack Rodwell - 1
Rhyan Grant - 1
Anthony Caceras - 1
Patrick Wood - 1
Own goal - 1

Usually conceding 24 in 13 games would make for weakest or second-weakest defence in the league, but there are four teams with worse defensive records than us, and level with Macarthur. It has been a fairly wild season for goalscoring.

Have any of those been pens? I can only recall the cup final.

I don’t think weve received a pen all season.

Unless you ordered one with the SFCBux.

Starting to feel like he’s/they’re building something special. A gegenpress in the A-League should be fun.

According to Rudan, it is all Zdrillic (who turned him down LOL)

Edited for accuracy!

In Talays presser he credits Zdrilla for bringing the RB ideas to him and the club.

In Rudans, he says the same thing, and adds that Bimbi didn’t listen to Zdrillic but Uffy is working together with him.

I’m beginning to think that Uffy is better than Bimbi.

Dont get me wrong I’m loving what Uffie has done to the team and its the fresh new approach we needed, but hes still got some way to go to win 2 championships, 1 premiership and a cup.

Give Uffy Arnold’s legacy and compare then?

Give Uffy the multiple rebuilds Corica carried out in his time to keep winning. Those analyses of how little of Arnie’s setup Corica actually had have been posted here.

Corica is still a managerial great of this club. Hes our longest serving manager and second most successful.

Uffies not even been at us for 20 games. Hes doing great this season and happy with the job hes doing but we dont need the hyperbole that hes surpassed Corica.

It’s not hyperbole.

Talay hasn’t won anything yet.
