Rumour doing the rounds is that it looks like Adrian will be upgraded to marquee wages and Bobo will be departing for Turkey, if this is the case, this isn't the best news. I mean keeping Adrian is fantastic and he is very valuable to the team, but we NEED Bobo. There's no one else in our team that can do what he can do. No one else can play a convincing 9 in our squad for the whole season. Whereas we have a bunch of wingers avaliable. We cannot go into the season starting Brosque as a 9 and rotating him with Charlie. It just wont work, Charlie isn't at that standard yet and Brosquey is at the stage of his career where he needs to managed carefully, he can't be the 9 every week. I really really hope they've got someone at least somewhat close to Bobo's pedigree lined up to fit under the cap.
Again this is not a complaint that we are keeping Adrian, far from it, I'm ecstatic that the best player in the A-League is staying with us. I'm just concerned that we may not be able to adequately replace Bobo within our salary cap.
Again, these are all rumours so my comment is assuming that the rumour is on the money.
