Ahhhaahahaahaha... lol Jaza, what a load of rubbish, keep watching the socceroos, you won't see any send offs and when the sad day comes and he does go OS, you'll rarely, if ever, see it then either.
:
Powerful, highly competitive, yet intelligently constrained. Thats why Pim likes him so much ;D He will be central once more in us winning the premiership.
So whats with all this "Demi" nonsense?

he probably would be the best player in the A-League by far
He is the modern midfielder. Pim sees this.
He is a huge physical presence, but is dynamic rather than cumbersome. He breaks up play. He rarely loses a header. He reads the play well and pops in the right place to win the ball, and more often than not picks out a decent option to start our move. He can blast a shot and finish with his head.
His one weakness may be his distribution but it was clear against China that time with the Socceroos has pushed him on to improve in this area, and at an A-League level he will certainly be at least up to standard.
At an international level he probably needs to play with a Valeri or Grella who has the passing range and tactical intuition to start plays from the back. In the A-League, and a fair few European leagues nowadays, you rarely get goals that start with the ball at the feet of the centre back and move through the team in a perfect build up. Most goals come from either set pieces or situations where possession is won and you make a quick transition to attack, catching the other team out of position. A ball-winner like Jedi is absolutely invaluable in that sense - don't listen to Jaza.
At a higher level you would put him at DM and let him run the back half of a midfield. In the A-League, I think that would be a waste. I'd like to see him playing with Hutch, who can sit deep also, so Jedi can get forward at times and score a load of Tim Cahill style goals arriving in the box for crosses. He's a defensive beast but also an attacking weapon that we should utilise.
