History for JC

Ok, my 10 cents:

• Thought Rufer was actually very good again, on a trying night - he is as fit as they come, suspect he registers a very handy beeper test.
• Mandi took awhile to build up to getting a weekly 90 mins in his legs earlier in season - 2 x 90 mins in 3 days not in him (yet).
• For different reasons, age, both Durante and Taylor struggled with short turnaround too.
• As others have said, big shame, but Burns really ain't got it any longer apparently. 
• Cacace was good, but mainly only after Singh (and Williams) came on and drew a bit of attention away from him.
• Kurto - shark it's nice to have a Euro quality keeper. 
• Kopa - liked his stuff, I think he's underrated, particularly in the backline position, but I do wonder if we might see him alongside Rufer on Saturday from start with Doyle slotting back in, and Mandi on bench.
• Krishna - what can we say, it was an off day for him too. 
• Fenton - obviously had a couple of dodgy touches to say the least, but think he wasn't best served by tired, elderly legs behind/beside him. 
• Sheridan - yeah, well, he was isolated. Not much to say there.
• Bling FC played a very narrow formation, sometimes no more than 20m between front and back line - they set up to frustrate us, and they succeeded, seemingly knowing that we'd be tired and unable to play consistently at a fast clip.
• Certainly will be interesting to see what Rudan has up his sleeve next week for squad reinforcements -
