playmaker Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) That's what you call mid field domination. Cut off supply, solid defence.

Dezy94 Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 How about it! Defensively perfect tonight and if not for Fornaroli surprisingly being wasteful in front of goal we could've beaten them 3 nil or better. All positives tonight, can't think of a thing that went wrong tonight. Malik was critical i thought, his reading of the play to intercept passes was big. Harry's runs were simply breathtaking, no surprises the Fox boys rated them after the match. We're in this up to our necks, should be aiming for 15k minimum next week v. Brisbane. And credit to the huge travelling City contingent in the corner stand tonight. Looked great on TV! I'm buzzing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulhollanddrive Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Gutsy win, another clean sheet. Even a bit of luck with Wilkinson, Kisnorbo, Mailk within 5 yards of a Djite and he still got the header. I think top 2 will come down to our final home game vs Adelaide, after tonight I didn't see too much to fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEARTinator Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Was expecting that we'd be conceding a lot of the ball tonight and hoping for a break to bang one in. Was exactly the opposite. JvS got the tactics right, defensively tight, controlled the midfield and were dangerous in the final third. Pissants were hardly threatening. Having said that, Bruno seemed a little tired but still worked his arse off. Fantastic away from home win against a top side. Great start to the weekend.

hakz7 Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) So pumped for next week now mainly because we haven't won before an upcoming home game since round 10 (before the Christmas derby).

belaguttman Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Amazing result. When we are presented with a great opportunity we always fold but not tonight. Positives: Tactically and structurally sound all game. This was the best defensive effort for a long time and the clean sheet was well deserved. Wilkinson had less obvious influence than Malik but his influence on the shape and positioning of the defence is enormous. This was the first game where our midfield has dominated the game. Malik gave the best DM display for us since Srhoj Fitzgerald luckily had one good final shot in the front third and with his non-dominant foot too. Good games from Harry and Mooy JVS was tactically good, amazing that Amor is the first coach that he has outreached all season Negatives: 2 off field incidents unseen Chris Beath Dekker's injury, surprisingly poor form from Mauk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murfy1 Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Big big win. The team gets a lot of ticks with that win. A defensively superb job, with a flat 4-4-2 in defence that started applying pressure around the halfway line (a 'medium block'). The team stayed organised, pressed together and kept the intensity up. Credit to all the players and the coaching staff for fine-tuning the defence. A clean sheet, a professional 1-0 win, an away win, new player Fitzgerald coming up with a great goal and a match winner, Mooy with another assist and no injuries (pending news on Dekker). And a win despite the nutcase Beath (the worst ref for our club). A lot of positives. I'd say this was our hardest remaining match. Playing a team undefeated in 14 matches, away from home, and with Melbourne City underperforming on the road recently. Now over our last 4 matches Melbourne City only have 1 away match (Perth) and 3 home games--and we're turning AAMI into a fortress,with 6 wins and 2 draws over last 8 games (also 2 of those home games provide opportunities to take points off rival contenders). So a massive win, and something unusual for Melbourne City supporters--a moment where supporters can reasonably have some excitement about the club's title chances!

playmaker Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Mauk will get 2 weeks for that the fkn little prick. Why would you do that to a young kid trying to get some game time. Wasn't a fan when he was with us, but now I hate the cnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 How good is Wilkinson? Whilst Malik was outstanding tonight and should be given MOM Wilkinson is just that calming influence our centre of defence has always needed. The best win in club history? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexli Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Wilkinson is city's long-waited level-headed central defender. He has enormous influence on this team and his composure helps defence a lot, so glad we beat other team to have him. How good is Malik's man marking! I think he did really well in the past three weeks to shut down Bonevacia, Ninikovic and Carruscca today. Credit to him. IMO, next week's game with Brisbane is probably the most exciting match since Derby 1! No matter what happened this week, if we win next week, we come first for at least one night, at our home! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shahanga Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Starting to sink in. Away from home, against the leaders who haven't lost in 14. Everything on the line, as we need to win to get back in plate contention. So what happens? We go out and dominate and get a deserved win.
