Even better, it could be a win at home. It's at coopers 7G7:35 am kick off Central European Time.
Come on United!!!
A win In Brisbane would be grand!
I think we've only won twice at home this season.

Off course, my mistake.
My mind was somewhere else...

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
So will Strain start at RB again or could he be Lia's replacement in midfield?
Will Absalonsen start, or come off the bench?
If he starts could Kitto move the LB with Garuccio falling out of the team?

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
Still dont get the Garruccio hate..? Put in some lovely crosses against CCM.
abonlonsen off the bench you'd think and most likely marrone off the bench with Konsta to start.
Blackwood needs a big one....

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
In a recent interview, Kurz categorically stated Absalonsen is no where near a starting berth. Option off the bench maybe.
Happy with Konst in for Lia.
Or Marrone to RB and Strain to mid.

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
Is Baba our new Johan? Two week injuries turning into 3/4 of the season?
I mean the bloke has not played 90 minutes all season and its really hurting with Blackwood good for about 60minutes tops before running out of puff. We look good when he is up front but its a rarity in 2017/18.

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
Both are underwhelming. Most other teams' strikers can consistently play 90mins every week. Yet we have two who can barely play a game between them.
Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
To the game, Brisbane Roar are going to be heavily weakened by injury.
"The Roar’s list of unavailable players remains extensive, with D’Agostino joining goalkeeper Michael Theo (finger), defender Daniel Bowles (hamstring), playmaker Brett Holman (calf), centre-back Jade North (groin), midfielder Joe Caletti (foot), French winger Eric Bautheac (hamstring), utility Ivan Franjic (quad) and the suspended ex-Greek international Avraam Papadopoulos on the sidelines."
We should win this.

Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
I can see us winning this game if we're playing more proactively than last game against CCM.
Absalonsen off the bench would be great, just to get some minutes into him. I can also see Strain being used in mid, but I'm not sure if Kurz would use him over Konsta as a starter.
I can see Blackwood is trying to play a hold-up role more in recent games, but he's just not that good at it... yet. Hope he builds that skillset up quick.

3 - 0 our way - at the risk of being overconfident. The Meow are in a world of hurt. John Aloisi has not been able to field his best side once this season, due to their injury run.

I'm just hoping for another win. A scrappy 1-0, off Blackwood's backside, would be good enough for me.
Re: Preview: Reds vs Roar 30-12-17
Close to full strength squad. Really only Baba missing.
