Very much interested to see if Nabbout makes a difference to the team - hopefully the extended break will see the team come out looking better than they have so far the start of the season.

CityBoyz Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 We could be last if Victory beat Nix or second last if Nix beat Victory. 1-0 Sydney Bobo to score always does against us. PK will say we played well. If he looses tommorow night almost ready for City to wield the axe but they won’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fensaddler Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Not hopeful, even though we're likely to have a better shape with our returning senior players. Worry we'll still lack any fluidity or creativity, and will look as dull and flat as we have for most of the season. It says something when I enjoy watching other teams more than my own because they play far better football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shahanga Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nabbout and Griffith should help, though I guess both are short of a gallop. We’ll probably lose but a draw is possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrison Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 I’ll go with an old squad but it might just be our strongest and definitely our most experienced which we desperately need: Glover Atkinson Reis Good Jamieson Luna Griffiths Berenguer Nabbout Maclaren Noone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Seventh game of the season, albeit a disjointed one. Other than O'Neill the full squad available. At home. A bellwether match. Anything less than a decent win means we're not good enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of the 3 that are missing from GF squad, Nabbout is a much better option than Wales. Delbridge and Brillante are superior to Jamo and Griffiths, but even still 9 players who should be equal or better of the team that should have beaten Sydney only 6 months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belaguttman Posted February 22, 2021 Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 We have the players, but we don't have the coach. I hope I'm wrong but I think that we have a snowflake's chance in hell of winning this game. Despite this, I'm likely to attend my first game in over a year tonight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
