Fans have vented their frustration repeatedly because of the flat football which is not causing any kind of trouble to the opposition. The Blues made everything count from the set pieces last season and won the games on multiple occasions in that manner. But, it has not been the same story this campaign without their salient defender Henrique Sereno.

With a slight change in the formation, the Blues should have their flow going because they have quality players in every department. Should Raphael Augusto, Gregory Nelson and Carlos Salom start, they will have the much-needed spark to cause havoc to the opposition's defence.
Jeje always finds himself in between the defenders and loses the ball when he is isolated all alone. Hence, it is necessary to have players who can provide proper support to the striker who is capable of feeding Salom should he start alongside him.
