Pink Eagles Jerseys .Only Graham Arnold is within cooee of Merricks 100 A-League wins, a benchmark that cements the former Melbourne Victory and Wellington Phoenix coachs place in A-League history.Merrick resigned as Phoenix coach on Sunday night after a 2-0 loss to previously winless Adelaide United.It is likely to spell the end of Merricks senior coaching career.At 63, Merrick would be the oldest man in the leagues history to begin a fresh coaching stint.The Edinburgh-born Scottish-Australian coach can look back on a fantastic legacy.He is the only man to be named coach of the year twice and the only man to win the premiership-championship double twice.In 2007, Archie Thompson led a 6-0 grand final rout of Adelaide United to secure the clubs first title.Two years later, Tom Pondeljaks goal over the Reds in another grand final confirmed Victory as the leagues biggest club.So much of that was because of Merrick.He led Victorys original recruitment efforts, bringing Archie Thompson and Kevin Muscat among others to the club.Long-time rival Graham Arnold said he was saddened by the resignation of a fantastic guy.Hes the most successful and experienced coach in the A-League in terms of trophies and games, he said on Monday.Its (Phoenix coach) got to be he hardest job in the A-League.The travel is very difficult but then having to deal with the international FIFA windows and losing players.In the first eight or nine games hes lost players for two games ... theyre fatigued, then you lose and it just rattles players confidence and its hard to bring everything back together, especially in the public eye.Merrick was the last foundation coach to be sacked when the increasingly ambitious Victory board fired him in 2011 after a 5-1 Asian Champions League loss to Gamba Osaka.At Wellington, Merrick was a victim of raised expectations - hopes hed raised himself.Merrick told AAP the clubs sights were set on a top-four finish after a pre-season with nine wins from 10 games and the additions of Kosta Barbarouses, Gui Finkler and Marco Rossi.Im very upbeat about this team, he said in early October.Were buzzing in Wellington because weve got such a strong squad. It would have to be the strongest squad since Ive been at the club.Despite resigning his post on Sunday, Merrick believed - both at the start of the season and now - that the Nix could be champions this season.In the shadow of the 2-0 loss to the Adelaide, Merrick said the team was certainly good enough to make the finals still with a strong run.If we did we could get in the finals and do something, he said.
