Week 12 Training Results

We saw no drastic improvements in our defenders this week, but as I mentioned in the last installment, we’re expecting to see better play from three of our defensive trainees very soon. Central defender Cameron McDonald and wingback Mattias Leier have each received eight weeks of training since their last “bump,” and wingback Christian Kvam has received seven weeks.

Form Changes

Five players improved in form this week, including two starters:
-Forward Johannes Henriksson: inadequate (5)
-Midfielder Niklas Ivarsson: passable (6)

Fourteen players saw their form remain the same this week.

Three players dropped in form this week, including two starters:
-Keeper Cornelius “Corny” Jernigan: weak (4)
-Forward Guido Metman: passable (6)

In The Zone

All four of our previous “in the zone” members remain in excellent (8) form this week: wingback Arlen Lucas, wingback Tyler Willard, winger Valentin Rubio, and reserve midfielder Lucian Tere. This week they are joined by another of our reserves, super-sub Paul Peralta.

Form Dogs

The good news is that both of our Swedes, forward Johannes Henriksson and midfielder Niklas Ivarsson, have improved. Johannes is definitely on his way out of his slump, and has risen to inadequate (5) form. Niklas Ivarsson’s drop was just a one-week event, and he regained the two levels of form he had lost last week, returning to passable (6) form.

The bad news is that this week’s “form dog” is none other than starting keeper, Cornelius “Corny” Jernigan. “Corny” has been slipping a bit the last couple of weeks, and has dropped to weak (4) form. We’re unsure yet as to whether or not he will play against the Big Reds on Sunday.
