Your five-a-side team from our current squad

[South Bank Hank]

Kind of picks itself doesn't it?


Darryl

McCormack Bailey Maher

Leon


Darryl beats Collis at shot stopping, and his Draculaic aversion to crosses won't be an obstacle here. With Macca, Bailey and Maher we have a creative midfield that also knows how to tackle. Leon then provides strength up front to bring the midfielders into play as well as tuck the ball away himself.

I thought about putting in Gower, but as creative as he is for us on the Roots Hall pitch, I'd say that he doesn't release the ball quick enough for the five-a-side game...

Hey, give him a go... it's only 5 a side.....

In fact, let's try AB up front!

yeah but he'll be trying to backpass after every roll out from flavs and be giving away pens!

Flahavan (gk), Barrett, Maher, Bailey, MacDonald

Not that we've seen it but I reckon MacDonald would have the poacher's touch to make him an instant inclusion. Maher could probably make a living out of playing five-a-side, Barrett would contribute with goals by steppign out from the back, Bailey's quality and Flavs' lack of height would make him better.

Wouldn't play with a formation as it leaves you wide open to a forward run from a defender.

Five-a-side is all about pace & stamina, and the ability to pass. I reckon that little quintet should do the trick.
