Week 1 & 2 Review
Posted: December 23rd, 2011, 7:46 pmOh hai, welcome to the pre-Christmas break review with moi, CrossChap.
[color=#00A6FF]1. ARRIBA (2-1-1) [2-1-0 in league]
A good start for the returning season 1 champions who are looking to hold onto their title.
Top of the league after the three games with more teams nipping at their heels.
With the new addition Sukh having a cracking first week this team looks set for victory once again at this point,
however if jonny cannot play a match their defence may be left looking for someone to stand in and still be able
to produce the goals upfront. With a draw against Cathletico they will try to get as many points clear before the
second leg to ensure they don't lose out.
2. NWA (3-0-1) [2-0-1 in league]
NWA have got lucky so far with one game being a 5-0 forfeit win and a 3v2 against soccerettes winning 8-0, a loss
to start the season off which may show signs of weakness in this squad with j.mata currently playing truant with
nobody knowing where he is, this may affect NWA but there are plenty of good free agents that can fit into this
team, mata will most likely return after the christmas break so this team will still look good on paper, but can
they gel as a team?
3. Bombay Badboys (2-0-2) [2-0-1 in league]
With a 2 for 2 first week against a new shaped NWA and a second half blitz against Soccerettes this team looked
like they could win the league, however in the second week it was 2 losses against Div2 team Deadly Monkeys and
Cathletico in the league, with Rachels recent release they will be looking for someone to be able to pick up the
passing fluency this team likes to play.
4. Cathletico (2-2-0) [1-2-0 in league]
With 2 points out of a possible 6 in week 1 due to a couple of mistakes this team could easily be up their fighting
for first place right now. Week two started off with a 6-0 roll over of the division 2 team Action Men in the cup
and a win against the top spot Bombay to complete a successful start to the season. With attax bringing more offensive
power to the table when he plays this team could lul teams into a sense of defensive play with opc on the field and then
surprise them with attax.
BUS!
5. Circle's Boys (0-2-2) [0-1-2] in league]
Circle's Boys had a successful first match against Cathletico securing the point but from then on things haven't gone CB's
way with their captain (and famous commentator) CircleBoy leaving till the end of the season and V-11 now leaving this team
will be looking to gel as much as they can before the next league match to ensure they can get back on track to get that cupppppppp.
The new additions creator and Fergy can add balance at the back and the front but this team will be still be lacking the midfield
presence V-11 had early this season and all of last season, DEV may have to fall back to help defend with creator or potentially
Fergy having to provide the majority of goals which they may struggle with.
6. Soccerettes (0-0-3) [0-0-3] in league]
With one of the best teams on paper this team has had a disappointing start to the season with absences and bad days for them.
During this break they should be trying to gel more and sort out any recurring issues they have and play as much together as possible
to know their position roles and such. Once this team gels they will be a force to be reckoned with and hopefully isn't too late for
this team to reach a top spot.
