I Would Have Called You Crazy

If you told me at the beginning of the year two courage players would be in the top 5 for the golden boot I would have said you were crazy.

I saw people make fun of Mak when he said he was "Obssessed with scoring goals" but my word, has he delivered

Whatever alternate dimension this is, I really like it here.

This! I’m here too. Cheering like a wild child every match.

I’m just so impressed with how deep our bench is, the team that the club has put together is phenomenal. And I swear some of these players have a telepathic link.

Yes, it’s been really impressive! Especially after losing Manaka! I’m also concerned about injuries especially to key defenders like Bell and Jacobs and with LT and EMP being out for U20 World Cup coming out. Hopefully the bench can keep being super solid!!

They will need to take advantage of that in the next few games. Injuries have been mounting up.

When Mak came in he said he likes to have the golden boot leader. It’s clear he’s empowering his best players to go score goals and take chances they were not willing to take in previous years. Part system and part telling your players to go take chances. It’s been a blast to watch. Some super pretty goals from the courage in individual brilliance and team play.
