bt50 Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 There's a good thread over at 442 atm so i thought i'd bring it here. Name your best current A League XI. For me: Izzo WIlkshire Wilkinson Schenkeveld Zullo Isaias Brilliante Ninkovic Adrian Fornaroli George SUBS : Young Bobo Brattan Nabbout Petratos Highlights how bad the shape of RB is in the league imo.

Jovan Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 So you'd put Bruno in as the best striker after 30mins and no goals. I hate Bobo more than most but he must start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I'd say right at this minute Schenkeveld and Arzani are our only contenders for a place in the squad. Highlighting the state of the City squad at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate Bobo more than most but he must start. I based it off who i think is the best player in each position that currently plays in the league, not form, exposed or otherwise. I appreciate some will pick it the other way. For me it comes down to a) who i think is a better player and b ) who would fit the team best. I rate Bobo as a very good player, but i think he's far more one dimensional than Bruno and is an easier player to remove his influence from a game. There's no doubt if we are doing an in-form XI then Bobo is clearly the first picked striker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If injury isn't an issue, surely Rhyan Grant gets the nod at RB over Wilkshere Edited February 17, 2018 by GreenSeater Can't spell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlighting the state of the City squad at the moment. Harsh on City IMO. Says more about Sydney's squad overall tbf, especially seeing as they make a case for almost the entire back 4, more than half of the midfield and arguably the striker spot. @bt50 didn't name a single Newcastle player in his first 11 (not that I'm arguing with him) and two Adelaide players. However, Newcastle are a substantially better side than Adelaide are and I don't think that it's reason to assume there's an issue with Newcastle's squad. Outside of Sydney, I don't think a midfield pairing has been better across the league than Brattan and Malik, Jamo is probably better than just about every other LB in the league, Jakobsen would get into almost every other team and obviously we've got Bruno back now. We've got a couple of gaps in the squad but it's still a very good one. Edited February 17, 2018 by Embee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k o Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 Not a comment that's in common with the theme of the topic but Bort, Jako, Bruno, Brattan, Arzani, Bouzanis etc. all capable of being in the best team. Common denominator is the coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
