ACL2 - R16 - Sydney FC vs Bangkok United - 12/2/25

If we can keep it at nil all until Costa, Kucharski and Sega come on at 60, we should win 3-0

And I think we need at least 2 goals to take to Bangkok with us

We are playing well but look too desperate to score, this Bangkok team are not very good it turns out, but of course could have scored one or two early.

Refereeing is absolutely terrible, and if the AFC wants this comp to be taken seriously then it must improve the officiating.

Yeah the away match will be a struggle. You don’t want to be relying on a win over there I’d say.

Rain is absolutely belting down now

That’s funny because it was belting down when I read that, looked up and it had stopped. Even the rain can’t be fucked tonight

Not anymore

I don’t think I could possibly agree more.

Why do we not have Champions League toddler racing

I don’t know if we want that. The Qataris have been spending big on their toddler academies and they’re just going to show us up. The club really needs to be investing more in the 1 year olds that are the future of the sport.

I got COVeID on saturday so am watching from home.

(Fresh) pair of lucky undies now on, we’ll be right.

Sickening that today’s toddlers would rather head to the middle east to chase a buck than stay home.

It’s always been their dream to toddler race for Al Nassr

We could lose this one 4-0 and I’d be optimistic about us winning by 5 over there, or we could win 4-0 and I’d be nervous with throwing it away over there - tough conditions and we will be playing that weekend too from memory.

You just don’t know with this Sydney team unfortunately, we’re capable of hammering or getting hammered by anyone at any given moment.

Because the AFC would make parents remove all the brand labels from the kids nappies.

Everyone who doesn’t play regularly in those conditions suffers. I would be shocked if we had a big performance and win. Win here and then hold the ball as much as possible, button down the hatches, don’t be afraid to shut the game down.

I think he probably needs a break. If A.Grant can come in and Popovic can play again then Grant back to fullback for at least a match of two would probably do him good.

At least that will reduce the Bangkok level humidity

Holy shit, what a brain snap
