Our team at the moment, after seeing them play I really can't see us trying to compete for a playoff spot.
Alexander is as good as ever in goals.
Our defense has probs been our weakness - all over the place. We've really got to stop playing Ledley there, he's been okay in the back but you can tell when he plays he shouldn't be there, probs got to find a replacement for him. Purse has been pretty solid, but as soon as he went off against Seattle Loovens was totally lost and soon enough we conceded a goal that could easily have been dealt with if he was there.
We need Koumas. We have been extremely poor with set pieces without him and you can almost see where there's an empty gap on the edge of the box where JK would've knocked the ball in, rather than in the last few matches where it just rolls by and goes to the other team.
Chopra has been very good for us, he's quick and seems like a more fierce Earnie. We've still got the same frustrating problem as last year though where we can't seem to find a good striking partnership, Thompson doesn't seem to work with Chopra as well as we would've hoped.. Ferreti worked alright with him but Jonesy doesn't seem to think so, and will probabley be stuck on the subs bench like last season. If we don't get Koumas this will be a massive issue..no one to come to our rescue and score a late last goal!
The only thing left to worry about is the final score. They all same okay and fair, but all the teams that were at about league 1 level or above we drew or lost against.. Victoria and China were both poor teams, hardly league 2 level.
God I'm optimistic lol!!
