You may have noticed that we have Cosmos and Anthony playing in goal for a half each this week. Cosmos is now a triallist and as such will be given the same amount of time as everybody else. Therefore as his preferred position is in goals and it is not as easy to allocate 65 mins, as an even split with Anthony, he will play for a half and so will Anthony.
We are very keen to have two full time goalkeepers for the obvious reasons, one of them being that if Anthony is not available, Cosmos, as he done for the past two weeks, will step in and it will be less disruptive.
With this in mind we would like to keep strengthening the team. Dean, Lee's mate, is keen to play and we feel that he would give us good options on the left side of the midfield. He made an impact last week and that is what Lee, Sam and myself are looking for.
Competition for places is good and although we select on the basis of commitment, fitness and form, players who feel that their position is safe and expect to be in the team will be in for a surprise in the upcoming weeks. Do not assume you will be given the same amount of time if you are not showing effort and playing as a member of a team.
We want to encourage a team who plays to win, shows commitment and effort on and off the pitch and yes being able to play football is desirable as well. But all of the latter qualities must be combined to create not only a better player but also a successful team.
Any comments would be much appreciated.
A separate email/ blog entry will be coming later explaining how we want to play tomorrow
