Victory and City would block us from entering. The A League door is closed to us for the foreseeable future.
Ive heard that repeatedly but still struggle to believe it... Last night had some really nasty throwback vibes to the turning point last year... We get excited playing an "important" match and think we can be smart resting players for a "bigger future" A bird in the hand is worth a million in the bush... These distractions aside, the squad we saw last weekend against Avondale is good enough to win the title in both NPL and Australian Championship AND go far in Aus cup especially since we have auto entry to Rnd 32.. At least it would be without having to rottate for traqvel and hubs and whatever. OFC Pro league is holding us back..... an unnecessary vanity project (at least my opinion).
There have been 6 in the OFC so far and 2 in the NPL...
Pehaps they should be wary of false advertising. A hot dog roll (which was decent) 2 pieces of tomato , 3 litres of coles brand tzatziki and 6 chunks of chicken kalamaki is NOT worth $20 and NOT
EXACTLY what Im saying.... And with Hume and Altona bookmarking our OCL matches this week it was meant to be the "easy" period... I was sort of semi interested in going to the OFC to see is play some new and strange opposition for a change, but now Im just stressed about the whole thing.....
Any match is winnable and losable.
I reckon you're right. This has shown our squad depth quality is not deep enough.
Swibel and Max were awful tonight IMO
We should have won by a few goals. We really needed to be far more accurate and clinical in front of goals. Uchida, Eliopoulos, Pasquali, Cocks, Bonada and Giannakopoulos were great tonight. Cocks is proving to be a good signing.
We really missing the quality of Aguek and Lavale upfront.
Unfortunately that was the case. Expected a lot more from them tonight.
couldnt have put it better.... Eliopoulos was standout.. they were a well worked smart side though... geez they can run and yhat right back of theirs is standout.. we should have one eye in those AL fringe players bc thats what should be coming in as a priority when transfer window opens.
start Cox here and perhaps look to rest something more in the midfield..otherwise start strong and sub early.
100% all for giving a chance but offers very little and doesnt suit our gameplay this type of striker.i think similar but Perhaps we start with Singh as a focal point
I cant fault max other than perhaps not being able to keep pace with what was a very conditioned quick running side.. swibel and lack of focal point for sure is our biggest concern ... bonada did fck all for me also and that Lackey after the dirbbling debacle of the weekend we saw yesterday that he also cant pass accurately at 3 mtrs to save his life!
