On notice ... Roar coach says he will be "active" in next month's transfer window. Source: Adam Armstrong / News Limited
Mike Mulvey has put his struggling Brisbane Roar squad on notice, saying he will be "active" in next month's transfer window after a 1-0 home loss to Perth Glory.
Having last week inherited a squad put together by master mentor Ange Postecoglou and failed successor Rado Vidosic, the new Roar coach has acknowledged the need for some fresh faces in all positions.
"I've got some phone calls to make overseas," Mulvey said yesterday less than 24 hours after his first game in charge of the Roar ended in a 1-0 home loss to Perth Glory.

"We know we need some additions to the squad, and at the same time the players need a bit of a boost.
"We're certainly going to be active in the January transfer window.''
And that potentially means buying and selling players.

Mulvey had a lengthy discussion at yesterday's recovery session with midfielder Erik Paartalu, who has made no secret of his desire to leave the champions.
Another player likely to be headed for the exit door, either next month or at the end of the season, is disgruntled defender Matt Jurman.
The former Sydney FC centre-back has fallen even further down the Roar pecking order, with Mulvey saying he was going to persevere with youngster James Donachie as skipper Matt Smith's central defensive partner.
Jurman will play in today's National Youth League clash between the Roar and the Glory at Goodwin Park.
"I expect him to be disappointed that he's not in the first team,'' Mulvey said of Jurman.
"It's now up to Matt to put pressure on those guys (Smith and Donachie).''
Certain to miss Brisbane's clash against Adelaide United at Hindmarsh Stadium on Wednesday is fullback Jack Hingert, who suffered a serious hip injury just minutes after coming on as a substitute against the Glory.
Mulvey said he was yet to decide whether Ben Halloran would again be left out of the starting side after he surprisingly watched most of the Perth loss from the bench.
