Yes and Glory weren’t allowed to use any of the facilities at AAMI park in that FFA Cup final, I believe all the pre game was Victory’s usual A-League routine “stand by me” etc making it even more comfortable for the hosts.

A buoyant Victory and a busted Sydney – just what the A-League Men’s needed

Elland Road still gets raucous, great noise there most matches

Lopez did not seem too keen on going round again did he. His best shots were eaten and he was out boxed, Kambosos has taken his soul.

Good to see Sturridge clear the air about Friday, as if after 2 weeks in quarantine and being starved of football for this long he’d say ” y’know what can’t be bovvered innit” if he was fit and ready

Yes the kerfuffle over Sturridge is hilarious, I wasn’t expecting decent minutes from him till around round 6-8. Implying it’s diva type behaviour he didn’t play on the weekend is crazy. I will say though in Garcia’s defence the team looked very organised in midfield/defence which was never the case last season, unfortunately Fornaroli missed 2 clear chances and Niyongabire…well I have no explanation on his brain fart in front of goal in the 2nd half.

Travelling Perth Glory patient with Sturridge

As a Glory fan I say bring back the Wolves! We’d love to have an old rival from the NSL back

Well yeah you could call it arrogance as well, but hey it sells fights in this game. Kosta is probably still the best at this stage to represent Australia but if Kambosos can defend his title those two are gonna be top of the pile.

Well no it’s quite clear from stills doing the rounds that the ball was out leading up to the goal in Friday night. Don’t use VAR if the broadcasters don’t have enough cameras to show every angle.

He’s got a fair shout for best Australian born…20-0 Undisputed Champion of the world. Stuff anyone who doesn’t like his brashness, kinda wrong sport to be into if that rubs the wrong way. I loved he challenged Lopez to a rematch too, it’s the loser that normally presses that issue

Ah well we had a good run.

Why the Socceroos' World Cup path is now even harder

Meh he’s the current manager of ECU Joondalup not a commentator and I’d say he did it free of charge, hardly anything to lose sleep over.

The A-League Men's teething problems are nothing that can't be fixed

Long live Kenny Lowe

At the end of the day if it wasn’t for injury Taggart would probably have 20 or more caps under his belt by now. When his composure matches his movement….which is first class…then yes we have a player that could potentially be putting them in the back of the net as often as Cahill.

Is Taggart the man now that Timmy’s time is up?

I agree i thought it was embarrassing, calm down Arnie!

Late equaliser can't conceal familiar issues facing the Arnold era

On Keogh he’s had a great start to the season but geez he didn’t half butcher a few chances on Sunday.Finally put one in the back of the net to give us the lead though so alls forgiven. Popa’s got Glory purring and really could of had 5 or 6 had the shooting boots been on, great defence and with Spiranovic and a certain Spaniard still to come into the side things are looking good.

Six talking points from A-League Round 4

Great signs that the team has adapted so well so early,new coach and plenty of new players so a great start really. Should become an an even more cohesive unit as the season goes on and with Castro still to come in lots of optimism for Glory fans this season.

Glory stun Victory in five-goal thriller

Yes Punter what you dont always pick up on TV is a players movement and watching Taggart in the flesh at Glory his movement is first class, he creates so many opportunities for himself that even if he botches a chance or two he usually scores in the end . His little flicks and one twos around the box are a pleasure to watch as well, really looking forward to seeing him linking up with players like Rogic in the NT set up.

The A-League team of the week: Round 1

As stated by others we are looking a little light in attack, having said that Poppa has had success with fairly average strike forces in the past so heres hoping. We’ll need the likes of Ferriera to chip in with goals which he’s very capable of if he stays fit.

Can Popovic bring glory back to Perth?

I think making the FFA Cup final two years running and not even having a sniff of hosting one of the finals has many Glory fans not caring about the FFA Cup to be honest.

The wonder of super-Tuesday in the FFA Cup

Great signing, Honda is up there with the greats of Japanese football and it’s a pleasure having him in our league.

CONFIRMED: Melbourne Victory land Keisuke Honda in massive A-League marquee signing

A fair few broken playstation controllers in my case.

What has 25 years of FIFA given us?

ol Marty boy is known to post links to trouble at a 3rd division game in Brazil so it’s hardly surprising he’s not on top of problems in his own backyard.

Even as an innocent bystander, football is implicated

Deserved, absolutely brilliant technique.

WATCH: Benjamin Pavard's goal of the World Cup

If Graham Arnold was still at Sydney this might be considered a good move, instead he’ll be working under someone in a vital stage in his career whos never been a 1st team coach before….i do wonder who is guiding these young guys sometimes.

Daniel De Silva moves to Sydney FC on loan

I’m not sure the label matters quite frankly…and most of these violent clashes have involved far more than “2 blokes”.
