Galekovic should be in the 23

Post by reflex »

Its a pity that his outstanding form in the a-league and Asia has not been properly rewarded.
Pim really kicks the a-league in the teeth. And I reckon in many cases, he does it unfairly and naively.

Can't argue about his outstanding form but you have to admit that most of the strikers he's keeping against, wouldn't get a run in a League 1 side in England (or equivalent elsewhere in the World).

:lol: You might be right, but who made you the expert? Fact is, he's playing well in a crappy league and managers would rather pick someone playing average in a good league. I really don't think you have any idea of the difference in level between the A-League and the Championship.
