Sydney FC have ramped up their hunt for a second marquee player, analysing more than 150 strikers in the hope one can lift the club back to the A-Leagues heights.The Sky Blues have undergone radical surgery since finishing out of finals contention last season.Twelve players have left to make way for new blood which coach Graham Arnold believes will bolster his defence, strengthen his midfield and give his attack the spark its lacked since the 2014-15 grand-final run.But Arnold is still searching for that special player who can do what no man has since Austrian striker Marc Janko delivered 16 goals two seasons ago.Marquee will be a No.9 for sure, Arnold said.I made it clear to the players at the end of last season. Its just a matter of finding him, which will take time.Whether its a big name or not, thats another thing.But most importantly its a player who will come here and perform, and hopefully score 15 goals plus.Sydney have been overwhelmed by the sheer number of resumes flooding in.The challenge now lies in the laborious process of sifting through the global haystack in the hope of stumbling across the next Bruno Fornaroli.Weve got a long list, Arnold said.Yesterday when we counted we had 158 put forward, so weve analysed and looked at 158 of them.They include former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner, ex-West Ham forward Carlton Cole and former German international Kevin Kuranyi, though its unlikely the club will seriously consider them.Another marquee - to join winger Filip Holosko - is one of two significant signings the club is still to make, with Arnold revealing the second will be an attacker.Off-contract captain and last seasons Australian marquee Alex Brosque is also expected to sign a new deal under the salary cap.Sydney have already added off-season quality to the squad in former Melbourne City defenders Alex Wilkinson and Michael Zullo, ex-Melbourne Victory goalkeeper Danny Vukovic and fringe Socceroos midfielder Josh Brillante.A more familiar face is winger Bernie Ibini, whos back on a season-long loan from Belgian Pro League champions Club Brugge.Im very happy with where were at recruitment-wise, Arnold said.I want two quality players for every position so the players can push themselves to another level.Trysten Hill Youth Jersey .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch.

Four decades later, Sylvester Stallones lovable character resonates with fans drawn to his underdog tale of determination, grit and sleepy-eyed charm.The reach of Rocky is international, and the film serves as a slice of Americana. It is shorthand for Philadelphia as much as the Liberty Bell or Benjamin Franklin.Anytime we are speaking to overseas visitors ... the conversation always turns, at some point, to `Rocky, said Julie Coker Graham, president of the Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau. They ask, `Have you met Rocky? A lot of them think its an actual, real-life person.On the films 40th anniversary, a few reasons for its enduring legacy:---LOVABLE UNDERDOGWritten by Stallone in three days, fans fell hard for the ballad of Rocky Balboa. For the uninitiated (SPOILER ALERT): The small-time boxer from the heavily Italian neighborhood of South Philly stumbles into a bout with the heavyweight champion of the world, Apollo Creed, fighting in the city to celebrate Americas bicentennial. To get him into fighting shape, Rocky (played by Stallone) is trained by the peppery Mickey Goldmill (Burgess Meredith), whose many one-liners make him a frequent scene stealer. Rocky also finds love in the film with sheepish neighborhood pet store clerk, Adrian (Talia Shire). Though he ultimately loses the fight, Rocky proves himself and wins Adrians heart, making him the winner of much more than a title.The film itself was a long shot, made on a budget of only $1 million and shot in 28 days, with a largely unknown cast, including Stallone himself. And it was shot in working-class Philadelphia, a city that -- despite its roots as the crucible of freedom -- had long had a chip on its shoulder as second-tier as compared to more cultured East Coast metropolises like New York and Boston. (It is worth noting that the film had its premiere in New York.)---CHEERS FOR ROCKYWhat the movie lacked in beauty, it made up for in heart, something that resonated with audiences worldwide. The film was the highest-grossing of the year, earning $117 million at the North American box office and another $107 million overseas. Rocky received 10 Oscar nominations in nine categories at the Academy Awards, winning three: best picture, best director (John G.dddddddddddd. Avildsen) and best film editing. Stallone, Burgess and Shire were all nominated in acting categories, and Stallone was nominated for his screenplay.Rocky is preserved in the Library of Congress National Film Registry as being culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant. It was also ranked one of the greatest sports films ever made and is the second-best film about boxing behind Raging Bull, according to the American Film Institute.---GONNA FLY NOWThe score for Rocky, which was also nominated for an Oscar, was penned by Bill Conti. The main song, Gonna Fly Now, was originally intended as filler for the training sequence marking Rockys journey from amateur to contender. The opening fanfare is among the most recognizable in American culture, and the soaring melody that plays on the melancholic theme woven throughout the movie is the backdrop to Rocky doing impressive one-armed pushups, punching meat in his girlfriends brothers butcher shop and running through Philadelphias Italian Market, along the Schuylkill River and past the shipyards.Conti went on to win an Oscar for his score to 1983s The Right Stuff and made music recognizable to millions in theme songs to Dynasty and Falcon Crest.---THE ROCKY STEPS AND STATUEThe montage climaxes in one of the films most memorable scenes, as Rocky bounds up the 72 steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, raising his arms in triumph. Four decades later, the run and pose atop the steps are re-created daily in Philadelphia, mostly by tourists. In 1982, a statue of Rocky commissioned by Stallone for Rocky III was placed in the spot where he stood in the original film. Its current home is just to the right of the steps and is a selfie stop for visitors.---ROCKYS NEXT CHAPTERThe original movie was followed by six sequels. In 2015, Rocky was reborn in Creed, the story of Adonis Creed, the son of his nemesis-turned-best friend, Apollo. An aging and dying Rocky trains Adonis for a brawl not unlike the grizzled boxers first fight nearly two generations earlier. The New York Times reviewed it as a dandy piece of entertainment, soothingly old-fashioned and bracingly up-to-date.[ nearly two generations earlier. ' '
