    ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Kye was a bit of a ball watcher when he first joined us - and would suddenly find himself out of position, which cost us a handful of goals. But he always had the other attributes needed for an excellent CB and as soon as he learnt to concentrate for 90 mins went skyrocketing up the levels. I'd rate him already one of the best CBs in Scotland and likely to be an EPL star before much longer.

Sains could have done that but took the money - which is fair enough. Hard to turn down 18 mill pretty much tax free (I was told).
To be fair to Kye, he largely had to learn his craft without being alongside an experienced CB, so more credit to him for succeeding anyway.

Nah you can see the potential. They can get there training into him and off he goes.

He can develop and learn playing against better attackers than the A League

You can see Kye has some deficiencies at the top level that maybe leaving earlier might have helped get rid of them before they are habbits.

Pretty good scoop by Monty if can sell him within the year we took him from WSW

Monty signed him to 2 yr contract straight away so definitely has something
Wasn’t it a 3 year deal?

3/4’s of the league play with a DM, just quietly. Still a hugely popular position around the world. And when say triantis has filled in there he certainly isn’t going box to box.

I’m a big fan of a 4-2-3-1.

You could view the 2 players as DM’s but a lot of teams are playing this overseas and if your fullbacks get the ball to the next line quickly they act as an attacking midfielders if they can turn the ball and take off through the middle they then have 4 options to play through balls.

And a great structure to set with to encourage easy passing triangles so you’re not thinking as much.
Great counter attack option if the team moves up the pitch together quickly as a unit.
