Season 10 would be marked as a season of heartbreaking low (Champions' League Final defeat on penalties) and thrilling high (winning the league on the last day) as we completed the season staying true to our attacking philosophy and continuing to groom youngsters when we could. Changes to the fitness regime should give us an edge in terms of competing on multiple fronts next season and more chances of success and silverwares.
Starting Players:
We finally got ourselves a world class goalkeeper in Ricardo Miranda who had performed with remarkable focus and consistency throughout the season while young fullbacks Leipold and Ridhuan continued to develop alongside the experienced central duo of Sutalo and Osman in defence. Coulibaly should be considered as one of the best defensive midfielders in the world after the great season he had (an untimely suspension in the Final might be the difference between winning and losing) while Gerrard and Edeso formed an excellent midfield partnership of defensive grit and attacking penetration. On the wings were the creative maverick Ma on the right as well as the evergreen Ibanez on the left who remained the premier goalscorer for the club as Solskjaer continued to improve and hopefully fulfill his potential as a world class striker.
Squad Players:
Arabatzis proved a competent deputy all season as he provided cover on the left flank and up front while Rybin did the same on the right and center of defence. Olaiz continued to demostrate his class and professionalism as he stepped into a more withdrawn role with minimal fuss and provided depth and leadership whenever needed alongside the capable Safiesa.
Young players:
Topal looked dangerous whenever he stepped on the pitch, usually on the right flank to cover for Ma while newcomers Colin Hendry and Sergio Martin were promising prospects bought into the team with the expectation of challenging for starting berths in the near future.
