Postecoglou acknowledged the team's current injury challenges, noting, "We have a limited squad at the moment, and this presents a significant challenge. However, I want players who are fully prepared to face this head-on." He also emphasized the potential of the club's younger talents, saying, "We have very talented and motivated young players who can challenge any team."
