While individual standout performances were limited this season, the squad’s collective effort in multiple roles was noteworthy. The top players—Ashraf Awad, Antoine Faure, Musa Ibrahim, Cleiton Moreira, and Edward Kennedy—contributed across various facets of play, embodying the team’s ethos of versatility and teamwork. However, their lack of goals and assists underscores the need for offensive development moving forward.

The primary area for growth lies in attack, as evidenced by the low goal tally. Improving goal-scoring efficiency and creating more scoring opportunities should be prioritized. Additionally, refining defensive organization to reduce goals conceded could help turn draws into wins and bolster league standing.
