Following their 2-0 home loss to Perth Glory in the elimination final Valkanis confirmed their exit after he was asked about it post-match, but revealed there are no other departures.

And asked about whether it was his last game in charge since taking over former coach John van ’t Schip in January, Valkanis was unsure.

“I don’t know, it doesn’t concern me at the moment,” Valkanis said of his future.

“The disappointment of losing, the bigger picture is Melbourne City, not me.

“Right now is not the time to talk about this, not right now.”

Valkanis lamented his team’s sense of urgency after they finished with just two shots on target and conceded two goals on the counter-attack within the first 30 minutes.

“Are we desperate enough to block Diego Castro’s goal? Dino Djulbic prides himself on blocking goals,” he said.

“Very disappointed, simply the first half we didn’t turn up, we were impotent going forward.

“Defensively, we didn’t defend those two goals and I don’t know, because there’s a lot of work that’s gone into it and it’s the same problem week in week out.

“I guess it’s going to be a time where we need to take time off, review everything and see what we have to do as a club to be better next year.”
