We've retained our midfield which is crucial but our 3 key departures sting a lot.

Eliopoulos should be decent cover for Marshall assuming he remains injury free.

Defence and midfield largely covered. Retaining Pasquali and Giannakopoulos in midfield, as well as Uchida on the wing is massive. I think Cocks from Broadmeadow Magic may be a handy pick up.

You're right - we haven't signed stand out strikers yet.
 
Probably a hint of desperation with our signings and would have been very last minute. Had we retained our strikers we likely would have just signed 1 extra defender.

In any case i wont be comfortable until the January window closes as far as others getting poached.

Happy we bought in another gk.
Unhappy after that turnover of that front line that we still seem lean.
Swibel might be interesting but not holding breath either... lets see how we go i guess...

Agree fully.. khaddour didnt seem like he stuck tbf, habib would be interesting as to why but had doubts he was more than off the bench player? imo shouldve atleast brought in other Jankovic perhaps.

Lets see come NPL if they still around for more depth i guess


Auckland FC squad looks way lean tbf.

Judging by the other squads in OPL it looks like its is mandated that 3 keepers are listed, I reckon only 2 x will travel though?
 
Don't understand letting spink go. Was perfect back up as he was very good 1v1 was a bit slow but defs a good squad option. Although I get the feeling he might have gotten injured toward the end of the championship so maybe that could have something to do with it. Habib we didn't see enough of but under the circumstances of losing lavale and manny id have thought we'd keep him however i do understand he was only initially signed for the championship
 
Spink gone!

We need Spink, Habib scored a nice goal but didnt see enough of him to say...

Fully agree on this bc there were signs there of a decent player for the back (perhaps not a starter over the key defenders but cover surely) ... my only suggestion would be Spink is looking for more permanent game time and with Eliopoulos in perhaps doesnt see it happening, even for NPL only matches or cup games.

Cant judge Habib situation other than say i never got vibe he was to be a permanent forward for us so perhaps saved on a costly non starter like with Khadour... front line has some cover now but with many question marks and the risk of ending up relying on defending really tight scores. No one currently gives me the vibe that against parked buses they can get the job done, but in Sinisa we trust so i wont complain (yet)...

Messourouni in again, enough said.... but can someone clarify bc i got confused can alterations be made each round of this comp?
