![The 10 major questions the A-League and APL must answer](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0612/r1344780_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
ESPN's team of football writers have sat down to examine 10 of the most pressing issues facing the A-Leagues this offseason.
![Football's focus: Time for A-League to concentrate on strengths](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0606/r1342275_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
Even if they had not planned to get here this way, the A-League's new "Football Focused" era is exactly what the competition needs right now.
![The Leeds connection that helped Central Coast create A-League history](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0526/r1337834_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
A special changeroom: People from Yorkshire, Fortaleza, Erakor, Woy Woy, Penrith, and more, came together to make history at the Central Coast Mariners.
![Mariners seal treble in A-League Men's final win over Victory](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0525/r1337420_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
Central Coast Mariners' incredible pursuit of a treble is complete after they claimed a second successive A-League Men championship with a dramatic 3-1 extra-time win over Melbourne Victory.
![Danny Vukovic the living embodiment of A-League survival](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0519/r1334912_1296x518_5-2.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
Danny Vukovic's heroics have been produced amid the backdrop of seemingly perpetual off-field turmoil in the A-League.
![Mariners into GF after contentious ALM win over Sydney](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0518/r1334464_1296x518_5-2.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
The Central Coast Mariners have booked a spot in a second straight grand final after edging past Sydney FC in one of the most contentious A-League Men games in recent memory.
![Are the Mariners and Phoenix the heroes that the A-League so desperately needs?](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0513/r1332195_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
The Mariners and Nix hold the ascendancy in the A-League semifinals, but Sydney and Victory could well be the perfect villains in this epic tale.
![Central Coast Mariners make history as Kuol secures AFC Cup](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0506/r1329090_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
Central Coast Mariners have become the first Australian club to win the AFC Cup, Mark Jackson's side triumphing 1-0 over Lebanon's Al-Ahed to claim the trophy in the Sultan Qaboos Stadium in Muscat.
![Mariners and Phoenix are A-League blueprints, but it's easier said than done](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0502/r1327334_1296x729_16-9.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
The future of the A-League Men centres on its ability to find and develop young talent. Implementing such a philosophy, however, is harder than it seems.
![Mariners forward Torres charged with sexual assault](https://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=/photo/2024/0423/r1323149_800x320_5-2.jpg&w=680&h=272&scale=crop&location=origin)
