Mstrkrft Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Has there been a reason given to Kalmar being taken off? Honestly did more in the first 10 minutes of the game than what Dave Williams did in the no.10 role all season. Played through balls to our wide players and Mifsud at least 5 or 6 times in that first half and then was taken off at half time, reason?IMO most things have been said about last night so I won't repeat them. It's pretty obvious when we line up before the game that on average we are on average physically smaller than our opponents, and that is always going to count against us. We are too easily muscled off the ball. Redmayne OK but has no idea when it comes to penalties, so we're pretty much going to cop a goal every time one is awarded.There's not a lot wrong with our back four, except we're short on height with Walker and Behich.Retre was our star last night. Presents himself well, and doesn't need speed to beat his man - just does it with hip movement like a true midfielder should.Mauk is good too, and needs more game time.Dugandzic never in the contest. Would be knocked off the ball in an U-10 game.Kalmar never in the game. Painfully slow. So often fires the ball straight back to the player who's just passed it to him.Murdocca ineffective, poor defensive marking and tries too much on the ball. Likewise Golgol - has all the skills (and gets his head nicely on the aerial ball more often than not) but tries to beat three men instead of laying the simple pass.Williams - missing in action. Overall the team is a shambles. Anxious and tentative, and zero confidence. Refer to other threads for what is needed - a "circuit breaker." Retre was shithouse misplaced passes and lost the ball while dribbling. Regarding kalmar, what would you have him do when he is given the ball with two players on his back, you expect him to make something of it? Of course he's going to pass it back, murdocca was a culprit of this in the first half, did it three times inside 5 minutes. Kalmar inside that first 15 minutes created more going forward than any other player. And while I agree regarding dugandzic being knocked off the ball, let's add walker in there cause he absolutely shits himself in any 50/50 contest. Agree on Kalmar. In principle, he takes the ball and attracts two defenders. Plays a ball to a creative mid like Matt McKay or even Fred FFS who can exploit the gaps created with a pass. Last night , it goes back to Mass or Retre who take it side aways or back further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) Gol gol actually looked like he gave a fuck last night which was good. No he didn't, and he is hopeless, and he missed far more headers than he won, ffs worst player in the team. Yes he did, i watched the replay and unlike previous weeks he was actually running to space and fighting for the ball in one on one's. I'm not saying he played amazing by any stretch of the imagination but he actually was having a go last night. Can't say that about 90% of the team Edited November 16, 2013 by kingofhearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total Eclipse Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 (edited) To some up the night my trains ran over a wheelie bin and cannot move. And I start work in 5 and a half hours. Wish I drank more. Was it one of MH's wheelie bin? Knowing us, Harry was in there and is now ruled out for a further few weeks. I don't post often but I had to login just now to say that this is top-shelf stuff. Well done.

MUTD/MLBHRT/ESSNDON Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 No one has mentioned how good Redders was last night.... Best on ground for us I'd say.
