After that plan B is that Krishna suddenly steps up....but there are many on these forums who would question that.
If you've been watching the pre-season build up games he has played in, there's no suddenly about it. He's stepped. I say he should start ahead of Brockie...
He scored a few goals against domestic opponents of a lower level than he used to play in the ASB Premiership. Better than Brokie but we always new he Krishna could score at that level.
A brace against a central XI and a hat trick in basically an inter squad game is good but lets not get carried away. I do have high hopes for Krishna this season. (or is that wishfull thinking?)
