Sydney FC confirmed this morning that Milos Ninkovic has agreed to an extension to remain here for another year. This week just keeps getting better and better, Sydney is sky blue.

Ah well we knew it was a long shot of keeping him, but bye bye Berni, Ibini is set to sign with MLS side Vancouver. They're buying him off Bruge.

Holosko confirming he's departing. So with both him and Ibini gone that leaves Sydney FC very thin on the right flank with Super Dave the only option, he's also getting on a bit. If I'm Arnie I recruit with the ACL and they're foreign quota rules in mind. Look tonAsia for options for replacements.

Vukovic to Genk in Belgium. Interesting to see who will replace him. Hopefully we don't go into the season with Redmayne as first choice. LOL at all the WS fans on social media coming out of hiding having a dig at us. A lot of straw clutching going on, which is all they can really do being by far the 2nd best team in Sydney.

Early word is that Federici might be sounded out as a replacement. I don't even know what he's doing these days.

Talk around the water cooler is that Sydney FC are in talks with Ben Halloran. A former Brisbane winger who's been playing regularly in the German 2nd division. Also has 6 caps for the Roos. Apparently he's homesick. Would be a good pickup if this true.

Oh yeah and as for a new keeper. Mark Birighitti's name is popping up. Currently at Swansea. He's no Vuka, but would be a decent get.
