In this game he played well and two goals will boost his confidence. He is working hard and there is visible improvement in his abilities. In the first few years of the A League, when Sydney FC had Dwight Yorke, CCM were the team to beat. Under a good coach they played like Swansea now. [Post edited 12 Oct 2018 19:41]

Watched the game, he could have had 5 or 6 but no composure and lacked accuracy, but he has oodles of self confidence as you would expect of a champion athlete . | | | |

He is genuinely rubbish though. The problem with his transition to football is that he isn't actually that fast over 5-10 yards. Well he is fast, obviously, but he can be kept up with. Even in that charity game the likes of Jonathan Wilkes were able to more than match him over short distances as he is naturally a slow starter. Its very rare you get to go on a 40 yard dash in football, where his speed would come into play. As you say he lacks composure and his touch is terrible. The A-League is also terrible but fully expect he will get eaten alive by professional defences of ''proper'' teams. | |

Perhaps he should have played rugby union like Nigel Walker | |

Probably just doing it for the publicity though. | | | |

The A League is terrible. For example my local teams talisman last year was 39 year old Massimo Maccarone of former Middlesboro fame! But they certainly won’t have defences running into eachother slapstick style for him to slot into an amply net like his last game, or keepers getting beaten like that. | |
