kingofhearts Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I've been critical of him but Metcalfe is having himself a game. Has the ball on a string. Serves CCM right for sitting back and trying to get us cheaply on the counter that they're now behind. That goal has really opened the game up, and if we can get an early one in the 2nd here, it's all over 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the defensive and positioning part he needs to work on in that DM, then again that’s not his position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 On current form, surely Maclaren starts for the Socceroos. What a clinical finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Well they are putting up a decent fight, as you’d expect. We are good for our lead though. Griffiths was a rock at DM but Luna has added a spark that the Mariners are finding hard to deal with. let’s hope we finish it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Another brilliant, very professional performance. We didn't look like conceding again. 4 clean sheets, 5 wins in a row, this is the best we have ever been 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Just magic. When we go forward we are the most dangerous team in the league. Noone, Flo and Nabbout have so much pace that we are running rings around the competition.CCM tried to park the bus and kill all the space but even they could only hold on for so long. Our defense too, our back 4 is amazing and we don't look like conceding. The whole team has bought in and one thing I have noticed about us is our pressure on the ball. Even tonight, everytime a CCM player gets it theres always someone in his area, putting pressure on. Special shoutout this game to Metcalfe who was a wizard with a ball tonight, but what else can you say outside maginificant 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJV Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) Only complaint to tonight is that we didn't put away 4-5. Overall very happy.

CityWildcat Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 We played some real nice football tonight. So glad to have made it to a game at last. Defence were immense. Coulda been 4-0 easily but a bit profligate or slow with final ball/shot. A great night. Well done lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluka Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I believe that equals our record for most consecutive league wins in a row, a win against WSW will make it an outright 6. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icantthinkofacoolname Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Mark Birighitti is easily one of the best goalkeepers in this country and he showed it again tonight. Doesn’t matter now but displays yet another fault of past management that Joyce would continually pick a cooked Galekovic over him when he was with us. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) A good win against a decent side and well worth my long drive (well, yes I an working in Melbourne tomorrow anyway but still worth it. Positives: Excellent first half, controlled the tempo and style of the game, never let CCM settle. We looked like we would score everytime we went forward, this is a team playing with confidence. Mark Birgitti kept CCM in the game, Defensively solid and midfield controlled the game, excellent team press in the first half Active sounded good tonight Negatives: Lost some intensity in the second half, understandable given the rain and the demands of the press. Midfield less effective when Griffiths moved to CB Injury to Reis, any news? 3 subs the final minutes? Come Socceroos qualifies we are going to lose half our squad!

Shahanga Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Pinch me. How good is this to watch? I thought Central Coast were well organised in defence and they managed to keep Nabbout quiet, but we were far the better side and deserved our win. That’s now 4 games in a row our opponents have subbed at half time (an early sub is more likely it seems with 5 subs) and 4 clean sheets in a row. We sit 4th. In the last 5 games our prey include the teams currently 1st, 2nd, 5th and 6th. We are playing well across the board. Young guns Atkinson and Metcalfe look like A League veterans now, Good looks like he should be in another league, Maclaren can’t miss etc etc. Don’t wake me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 1 hour ago, haz said: Floppyburger and Noone out of gas These two were completely out of gas after 70 minutes. Otherwise, it was a very tight performance by the whole team. Very few negatives, and many positives including the oft-maligned Jamieson who I thought had a good game. I thought Central Coast played pretty football but we were far too good all over the pitch. As others have mentioned we did waste several good opportunities in the second half. Hard to believe we're still only 4th, albeit with a game or two in hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
