I know they have gone through the league unbeaten but that says more about the other teams than Auckland. This is probably the worst Auckland City team in many years. They are boring to watch and, apart from the odd moment from Browne, have no real exciting players or inspiratation.
Yeah, I remember having this same discussion earlier this season, it's very ironic that the unbeaten regular season and highest ever points tally was set by probably a worst ever Auckland City side.
But also TeeDubs have to be given a lot of credit, they've had a challenging season where they've had to deal with the disruption of CWC for the first time, and basically losing half their starting XI in the New Year, with other key players also missing big chunks of the season too. If anyone had told me even a couple of weeks ago that the TeeDubs were going to go to Kiwitea St for the semi with a back three of Schrijvers, Robbo, and Palezevic, and win 3-1, I'd have thought they were mad - but it happened. Super excited for the final now.
