As for the opponents, I don't think I have to say much as we've played them many times. However, we still should not take them lightly. Winning Team Uncles is very possible as we've done on other occasions.
A couple of players from the opposition to take note: Attackers gotta look out for their very good centre-halves especially Joe, the tall and muscular one. Shaw is their playmaker who is very good at through balls and doesn't lose possession easily. Midfielders should look to get the ball from him & mark him out so he can't get his through balls to the strikers. As for Team Uncles' forwards, they are good at beating the offside traps so the defenders gotta hold the line properly so as to not leak any balls through.
We'll be playing at the same venue again so we should be more familiar this time round. Guys' this saturday we'll be playing for a win and also get a clean sheet, although previous records showed that they have scored in every encounter against us.
As usual, be there early guys.. and oh, a short announcement - new Mavericks recruit, Faizy, has gone on international duty on an overseas attachment in India and will be back only a month later. So guess, we'll only see him back in October.
See you on saturday.
