ALM - CCM v MC$

[Big Al]

Anybody else wish Alou little back heel flick went in. Was so close

 

[FFC Mariner]

Jing is still terrible.

He isn't. Technically very good and very aware.
He's just inexperienced

Agree, when I looked at their bench I thought we were gone. But then when I think of it, Jeggo is washed up and too old and slow for this league now. Leckie has hardly played this season and is a shadow of this former self. Mac Tappy is already looking at properties in Auckland and Tilio couldn't make it in Scotland and is good for one or two full length of the field runs and goals and he already has one.

Did anyone notice at the end of the match Jeggo was storming off the pitch by himslef only for Mr personality himself Jamieson to abuse him and told him to get back out on the field with the other players. It was gold when he turned around and walked back on the field with his head down.

Jeggos shit, Monty knows this that's why he dropped him at Hibs.

 

[Ironbark]

Oh yeah, forgot he was at Hobs

He doesn't make runs. He bottles 1v1. His heat map when we have the ball is basically a straight line up the middle from halfway to the 18 yard box. He doesn't do anything to lose a marker - check off, change of angle, in and away - doesn't do any of that.

Jing and Alou are the players we needed to go over the top with long balls next game against Sydney.

Can’t risk mucking around, need to go long balls and try for 40/20’s lol and block them in their own half.

As mentioned like last nights game maybe we need to flex again and steer into our currents strengths in midfield with a 5-4-1 and keep it more simple so we know how to look across and find our team mates to set for the next wave.

Roux———-Hall————Kaltak————Farrell
Doka——Ballard——Nizz——-Tapp——-Torres
—————————-Edmo—————————


All 5 of the midfield are capable of taking turns to burst forward next to Edmo when the attack is there for the taking.

And the short passing between the 3 CM moving ball forward hopefully can unlock through balls to Edmo and get him some slotted style goals, similar to that of the layoffs Nizzy was doing for the draw and pass to Torres.

 

[BaysideMariner]

I think Torres needs to start off the bench. This would hopefully give him the motivation. He isn't having the influence that has had in the past.

 

[Spacks]

Torres the new Garang? I wouldn't be mad if they gave it a shot. Let Theo run rampant tiring out defenders on the left then bring Torres on to wreak havoc!

 

[finally retired]

We need Theo to start off the bench to though......he's only good against a tiring defence.

 

[FFC Mariner]

He is solid and has a low centre of gravity. Running at a backtracking defender really works for him.
He will draw a lot of fouls so could probably reduce the diving.
Talking of fouls, why didn't a city defender take Max's legs out before he got into the box.
Take the card

The win over city also meant finals football is locked in for the men now as well 😍
