The Eastern keeper’s top reminds me of a 1980s Socceroos jersey I have in a cupboard somewhere #SYDvEAS

One of the great link-ups in world football.

Douglas Costa has delivered more decent corners in 50min than we have done in 5 years

Good lord Sena looks tidy. Takes the ball under pressure. Got a long pass on him. Won’t grab the headlines, but real ones will appreciate them skills #SYDvEAS

I’m liking what I’m seeing from Douglas Costa in his first outing for @SydneyFC #SYDvEAS

Sydney fc look like genuine ballers this year. You hate to see it

Douglas Costa has been class in the first half, excited to see him play down the road from me

After seeing how well these players have already gel'd together in preseason so quickly, I've become very optimistic for this coming season. Our visa signings have looked superb and Costa really showed that he's got plenty left to give still. Ouahim also an absolute baller!
