Carney-on-the-right is a no-brainer from 2005-07, Brosque as lone-striker inspired by that period in 2007-08 when he was scoring for fun playing off Juninho before the injury, and would have been even more effective with the less-lanky and more rounded later-career Brosque. We can pretend Corica is also a forward if it needs to be 4-2-2-2.
Damn you, I was going to post something similar for the midweek game.
Now how are we supposed to pad out that thread?
I’d have Zdrilic at RB and Yairo Yau up front.
Can’t believe you couldn’t find a space for Michael Enfield or Alex Mullen.
Michael Herbert should be on the bench as well, not Vedran.
My criteria was must have made a first team appearance, minimum 4 to make the starting XI was purely to get Austin in there. I also didn’t want to shit on any of the youth who didn’t really get a chance or only made an appearance or two, more of a “we really should’ve known better” when putting that pen to paper.
Was awfully tempted with Zdrilla at FB too, but really, Coyne remains one of the worst all-time signings we have ever made because he delivered EXACTLY what that tin always said he would.
Haven’t seen it in a while but Dez Giraldi used to have a blog chronicling mental health issues. Seemed like a sound lad. He also had possibly our shortest lived and most underrated player chant to the tune of the Odd Couple theme.
