Yeah, that is very similar to how I see it. I worry about AD's defence if we put him in the 13 but would be willing to give him a go.

Outside of looking closer to determine that they are real TPAs, I don't really see what else you can do.

Turf is laid

They also played with an attitude that I would expect from a captain. Nofa seems to be a guy that feels like he plays at a level above his team mates.

Yeah it is a real concern mate.

Nofa would be the worst choice. Would reward his poor season last year.

The obvious choice is AD, but I would like him to get more time to work on his game without the added burden.

I honestly don't think we have a captain.

I worry about him coming back from another ACL, it will just be better for the team if we don't have to rush him back into a key position.

Performance and player development wise.

Now that we have locked up Stefano I am willing to give a bit more breathing space. If I see a team that is committed, with improved defensive structu...
