It should never have been a penalty. I'm not surprised the Victory supporters, players and staff were fuming after the derby.
I used to hate them too but I have a lot of respect for them as a football club. The football they produce on the field is something Sydney fans can only dream of. We've never played as well as the Victory. It's a sad thing to say.
We all know Muscat is a tosser but the football he is getting the Victory to produce is class. He actually learnt off Ange which is fantastic for Australian football. If he comes on producing this type of football, he'll be the Socceroos coach.
I'm hearing all you're saying- but I just can't do it. Some things you just can't break, and one of those is my feeling's towards those south of the border.
I am highly impressed with this display at Western Sydney. Every time they go forward, they look like they might score.
I'm still not enjoying our football. No where near the level of Melbourne Victory or Adelaide United.

Didn't know Yorke played for Sydney. He didn't played at his best I suppose as he is a reserve in this team.
Yorke was a key part of the team in the initial Premiership winning season. I would have found a place for him in the 11.
He was only here for one season which is what might have impacted on that decision though. Then again- Janko's only been here for one as well, and he made it, but he has scored more. Yorke only got 7 goals in that season, important as his contributions were.
I hope this continues on Saturday night..Despite our recent good fortune against the Sky Blues, One thing that really worries me about my Reds is how wasteful we are of the many opportunities we create. COYR!
If we put away our chances, then we'll win. If you guys score first and control the ball, then we might struggle to catch up.
I am surprised with Gameiro's exclusion as I thought he was good while he was fit & playing for us.... Here's the full list so far: Sydney FC squad for 2015/16 2. Sebastian Ryall 5. Matthew Jurman 6. Nikola Petkovic 9. Shane Smeltz 13. Christopher Naumoff 14. Alex Brosque 16. Alex Gersbach 17. Terry Antonis 20. Vedran Janjetovic 22. Ali Abbas 23. Rhyan Grant 25. Aaron Calver 26. Jacques Faty 27. Mickael Tavares 29. George Blackwood 30. Anthony Bouzanis 35. Andrew Hoole 38. Brandon O’Neill
And after his loan finished- it looks like Bernie's off to Belgium, and Milos is gone as well: http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/article/2015/06/03/ibini-agrees-dream-deal-club-brugge
I don't rate Ibini. He doesn't have the technical ability or the football intelligence to make it beyond the A-league. I think we'll see him back in no time.
