Let's play a game,  who can pick who is going to play 

Here is who I believe we have available from our senior squad 

Sorenson, Rose,  Franjic,  Kilkenny,  Colazo, Caceras, Kamau, Fitzgerald, Arzani,  Retre,  Tongyik

I would assume that Sozer, Genreau,  Cavallo,  Crowley would all get called up

Have I missed anyone

Unfortunately will miss this match because of a wedding that I don't want to go to but can't get out of. (As a guest I hasten to add....) Still don't understand why we didn't sign at least one injury replacement, retain Chapman until we could find a replacement, or sign an over-age rookie. But sometimes a makeshift team can do well, so here's hoping we can make a fight of it.

That's actually better than I first thought.

Good chance for Arzani to potentially get ahead of Caceras, Fitzy and Kamau (maybe?) in the pecking order with a good performance.

 

The question is though, what happens if we play our best football and demolish Brisbane with this team?

Is there anyone else apart from Crowley who can play up front? And who will partner Tongyik at the back? 

Yeah, who can play center forward?

Goals: Sorenson
Defence: Franjic, Muscat, Tongyik, Rose
Midfield: Caceras, Kilkenny, Colazo
Attack: Kamau, Fitzy and ?????

Arzani on the wing, or Crowely at striker

IMO we just have to throw numbers into defence. My English non-league team had an away match in the FA Trophy over the weekend and earned a home replay by playing 5 at the back in the closing stages.

GK: Sorensen;
Defenders: Retre, Franjic, Tongyik, Colazo;
MF: Kilkenny, Arzani, Caceres;
Front: Kamau, Crowley, Fitzy.

Game plan should be just to choke them with numbers at the back, and then break quickly on the counter.

There are alternatives to the above that involve Rose.

Probably better off moving Colazo into the front 3 and putting Rose in at LB tbh.

Colazo has been very average but I think we'll need him in the final third

I actually have high hopes for this match: young, fresh, enthusiastic players, with nothing to lose.

Would not be surprised for Valkanis to go for the shittest line up possible and we lose 0-4

That's fine too. My main point is that we need to flood the defence and break quickly. We still didn't get enough players back against Victory, and we weren't desperate enough - see Malik at the second goal, doesn't do enough to try and cut out the final cross.

Yes, this is something like a non-league club in a cup-tie. We won't be favoured to win, so get out there, show some bottle and make the fans proud of you whatever the result. Wish I was going to be there...

Just do what I do. Buy stuff for people just to come.

Can't, he used to be happy once but something happened since the FFA cup final.

Now he suffers nightmares, can't sleep, is depressed, is on Valium, and keeps repeating the words 'Possession, high press, possession, high press' over and over again while in a foetal position.

Poor bloke, wish I knew what happened to him but I can't quite work it out.
