My guess for the home matches, we'll rest some players. For the away matches, I think we rest more.

 

I'd let Meara start the CCL away matches and have Robles start the home games. 

i'd think the opposite - start the veteran goalie away, and leave the younger one to start at home

They're really waiting until the last minute to announce the schedule, huh? This can't make it easy for Jesse to plan ahead... Matches are scheduled to begin in August. And of we're still in open cup then, well oh boy...

That said, some Google-ing says that the schedule for last year's group stage came out on June 29th. So... were still on schedule.

We'll play the reserve squad for the opening rounds of the CCL and bomb out again. Mark my words.

The fan in me who wants to watch the team play is happy.  The fan in me who wants to watch the team win and not die of exhaustion is nervous.


If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.

Wow, more of a reason the SWP and DP need to come back healthy for those CCL games.  A new signing wouldn't be asking for too much given that we have like at least one spot open.

Yeah, this is gonna be a time where we need injuries to be at a minimum...  That's just a lot of games.

 

We have enough depth at nearly every position now to feel nearly as good about every single backup as we do starter with the exception of BWP's spot.  Abang has qualities to love, but he's not there yet.

SWP is useless.

So far yeah.  But I feel like he's gonna have a say in this season before it's over.
