This is a genuinely brilliant summary, and I couldn't agree more in terms of the crucial nature of Paracki's much needed success. If Paracki does the dirty work effectively in the middle and recycles the ball to Finkler, Mcglinchey and Vidosic, those three can focus on playing attractive footy and combining with AK and Roy to make what would be a startling attacking five for any defense to have to deal with. Would love to see the midfield being given the license to unleash their full passing range potential, as Roy is utterly devastating when chasing down through balls on that left hand side. Last season releasing Roy and Kosta was our only real way of threatening the opposition, but with AK we don't have to be so one-dimensional ( I guess we had Watson and Smeltz as big men up top, but they weren't exactly effective). Doyle on his day is a brilliant crosser on the left, as is Abbas, and Galloway is decent too, so I'd love to see them bombing up from fullback (providing they are quick and aware enough to get back in time). Add Finkler, McGlinchey and Vidosic to that list and we've got a lot of great providers to whip balls in to AK or Watson. I think we have a really great chance of scoring 40-45 goals this season, and I'm unashamedly optimistic
That's all fine and good, but we need more than one plan.
In the past season or two, not having a plan B proved to be our undoing.
