Melbourne City coach Patrick Kisnorbo has slammed the A-League’s “crazy” decision to continue the season while players are away on national duty.
City’s hopes of clinching a premiership-championship double will be hit by the loss star striker Jamie Maclaren, key defender Curtis Good and possibly in-form midfielder Connor Metcalfe to the Socceroos for next month’s World Cup qualifiers in Kuwait City against Kuwait, Chinese Taipei, Nepal and Jordan.
City, who sealed the Premier’s Plate with a 1-0 weekend defeat of Central Coast Mariners, have three regular season matches remaining before the finals.
