Bench: Velaphi, Kewell, Mauk, Garrucio, Vrankovic

Swap Mauk with Kalmar and put Mauk in the DM spot with Germano / Engelaar in the hole (the other at LM) and I totally agree

Kewell's better off coming on for last 30 given his recent injury (as soft as it seems) and that the visitors are without Leijer or Contreras - their backlines better pace will have been wilted down after 60 so that Kewells ageing legs won't be an issue

Victory play with two wide forwards so that line up would mean Dug and Ram tracking back leaving limited outlets going forward.

By having the anchor and two neutral mids the two non inner centre backs can actually play a little wider.

Should a defender get dragged (ie long ball down the wing) the dragged player just jockeys until the DM drops into the back line and the two neutral mids cover as appropriate.

A winger dropping back is more last resort in that instance.

Mind u, the risk u mention is always there if one of the mids don't do their job
