Asunto: Australia Cup

I was just happy to get through that one as I was depleted by injuries and suspension. Hopefully full strength for the final.

Brown will still be out for the final unfortunately.

But it's definitely a match all the fans would be looking forward to, the old rivalry

Good luck with the final mate. On current season form I reckon you’ll win 4-0

Did you mean that to be other way! :D
Season of dominance continues…congrats on the Cup win.

Oof back to standard programming of red cards vs Chelsea.
But to be fair, it probably didn't change the final result as I was 3-1 down prior to the red card.
I didn't actually realise it was the final tonight or else I would have tried to replace my injured defender and red carded striker going in to the game.

Congrats on the win.

It has been an interesting season to see the difference between in form players and those out of form. Last season I started selling off in form players (as they sell for more) and I'm seeing the difference in results using the same tactics with out of form players

Form has always been massive. Just makes such a big difference. Especially in defenders and strikers.

Gk+att form most important, then winger, then def, then mid

Depends. I can see the point for gk form being a higher priority, but I’d take defender form over winger form. If defenders have highest form it’s going to be very hard for wingers or strikers that aren’t in top form to get through. If you can get defenders high enough form and prevent shots lower gk form becomes less important, though if you can’t restrict shots then yes gk form is vital.

Wingers out of form miss crosses too often.... especially if not unearthly+ pass

Wingers don’t get crosses if defenders stop them

A few cupsets tonight. Business end of the season for the cup now. No more easy games.

I just noticed Cruising Kings made it to the final 8.
Massive achievement, congrats.

Not holding much hope after the latest league debacle.

Depends which way I go as I’ve got to fit training in somewhere and this week I’ve got a few big matches.

Ah that’s annoying. Came from 4 down to get to 4-4. Should have won it in ET numerous times and didn’t. Lost on penalties against a very low form gk. Neither of my strikers could hit the net.

Oh well was the risk I took but had to get training into my players. Probably should have been smart and brought on panopoulos at the 119th min mark to give me a 3rd striker but may not have made a difference.

Good luck to those in the semis.

How on earth does 0-7 get turned on its head to 4-4 (6-4 on pens…& what happened there with the commentary)?
I botched my orders with a trainee being only sub that kicked in & that was 29th min!! Lost one of my main defenders to injury & what’ll be sizeable time out of action.
Goes to show the 0-7 wasn’t a true reflection given shots & other stats…as was today’s result to be fair as 4-4 was a tad fortunate, but I’ll take it.
We seem to produce some weird & whacky games…& a truck load of goals to boot.
