Could Kurz be the answer to Melbourne City's troubles?

After inspiring Adelaide United to a 1-0 win over Melbourne City on Sunday, Marco Kurz put in the perfect audition for the now vacant coaching position at City.

With Warren Joyce parting ways with the club after a dramatic two seasons in charge, City need a coach to reignite them and it's hard to look past the fiery German - who reportedly sounded out the position in March.

Kurz has succeeded in the face of extreme adversity this season. From a club chairman not answering his phone calls to a squad lacking a recognised striker for much of the campaign, the 49-year-old has worked wonders with what he has had at his disposal and it's hard to fathom exactly why the club are letting him go.
