The rumours i hear of a possible takeover is good for a club who aspires to compete in a level higher than the one it is in right now.

The entire Ang Mo Kio community would have known by now that the team needs a safe pair of hands between the post. I was thinking.... if i was a keeper, would i want to pay to just stand between the post for 90 minutes, making a couple of spectacular saves once in a while? The defence have been superb this past couple of games.

Would it be feasible to propose for the goalkeeper to pay lesser, or not at all, than outfield players? Perhaps if this proposal is approved, it would attract more potential national goalkeepers to join and bolster the team's defence. And make competing in a league, and even doing well in it, a highly likely possibility.

The idea of competing in a league would definitely make players up their game, both fitness wise and skills wise. Players, especially Ronalidinho who dreams of playing left, right, centre in the midfield area, would simply have to improve their game with curently injured pair Woo W M and Dan T looking set to pack the crowded midfield which boasts the likes of AhLong, Booninho, Shawn Kok, Ilhan Manqif, Fabreyaz, Bhai, Takeshi.

All in all, the team filled with committed and not so commited players seem to be in great shape. A safe pair of hands at the back coupled with better finishes by attackers and communication between players will make every weekend something to look forward to.

So who's our keeper tomorrow?
