theresonlyonebzamora Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Christmas has come early! JA will probably call a forfeit now that Hoff is out Edited November 3, 2013 by theresonlyonebzamora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sash Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) I think a win is possible, but requires overcoming some habits that have become ingrained under a bit of adversity, especially on the road.  Hopefully we can pressure Brisbane a bit higher up the park instead of playing most of the game in our defensive third. Hopefully that can also lead to holding the ball a bit more instead of being boxed in deep and hoofing it out of play or to isolated forwards. We've got the players to win. We just need to be a bit braver and take the game on, like we did when we were chasing the game in the last 20 or 30 minutes last week. If we can have Walker and Dugandzic on the right, I think it can definitely give us a dimension we lacked last week with Hoffman and Golgol. And Kewell can provide some class in the no 10 position if he plays, although with only 2 or 3 training sessions, I doubt he could be at his best.  I wouldn't put money on it though. I'll tip us to grind out a draw. Edited November 3, 2013 by Sash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll tip us to grind out a draw. One hopes, however we've never been good at playing throughout a midfield press with poor movement off the ball leaving the player in possession with no passing options and inevitable turnover. Roar are one of the more aggressive pressing teams, we have been one of the worst this season putting no pressure on the ball until its in our own half.If this continues Roar will dictate the tempo of the game with the inevitable result. I hope that I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that I'm wrong.  Yeah, Brisbane are much better at moving the ball through a press. But I reckon we can get better value than them from any turnovers we create in midfield with our quick forwards. Especially with them missing Berisha. They will invariably have more possession, but whenever we can break up their movement near the half way line, we'll be in a much better position to transition quickly into dangerous positions. I think we maybe just need the balls to take them on more aggressively in that part of the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUTD/MLBHRT/ESSNDON Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I honestly thought Walker not been played had something to do with personal reasons...
