DAM10 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 It was bound to happen sooner or later. Our recruitment for this season has been childish. We recruited midfielders ( not better than existing ones) and forwards like there was no tomorrow. All this while failing to recruit to strengthen our obvious to all (except to coaches) weakest point: OUR DEFENCE !!. Oh! I apologise, we did contract two rejects as outside full backs. FFS JVS and assistant !! Can't you see what everyone else does? We are in desperate need of another CB and 2 proper outside full backs. Long season ahead if these idiots don't fix our defence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, good build up between Bruno and Kilkenny, passed out to Rose who crossed it in. Bruno with a light touch on it to get it to Cahill and he scores the half volley. 2 minutes ago, Chris p said: oh fuckin wow, their inclusion will make us title contenders surely...

heart_fan10 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 is it really going to take us all season to realise that Malik is not a centre back? He's much better off in the midfield and has played his best football there. We've essentially replaced Wilkinson and Kisnorbo with one player who wasn't on the park today.

MattN Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 I think with Colazo and Jakobsen it could and should have been a different story if we were to play 3 at the back like we did today. It will continue to be a shambles if jvs keeps faith with Malik at CB in that system. If we do play WSW with this formation I pray that Jakobsen takes some command and Colazo can save Malik or rose's ass on the left. Any more friendlies before the FFA cup game? Hopefully because the backline will be as good as strangers to each other in a game which we have to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does my head in with amount of disrespect he shows the opposition's attack. Especially with a philosophy of scoring more goals than the opposition, what sort of bullshit is that? Go and get a player for $3.5 million and cant afford to pay the coach out WTF! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the relative ease with which we have conceded goals to Floreat Athena, Brisbane Strikers and North Queensland Fury NPL sides, and a 1-0 defeat behind closed doors to Hume City that are a cause for concern. We seem to have no idea of defending at free-kicks - conceding again today. FFS what do we do at training? We have 10 days to sort this shit out before we face WSW in the Cup. At the rate we're going they will tear us to pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n i k o Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Looking at one game especially during preseason isn't really accurate indicator of things to come. But the patterns there. The same pattern has always been there. Conceded against Floreat, Strikers, Fury and Wellington. Our defence is like a sieve because of some questionable personel and an unquestionably mediocre coach. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply fail to see how this builds confidence in his players where they beleive in what hes doing. And how does this help confidence in the team. Expecting a combustible environment should we continue to concede like this. Enter Timmy.... 7 minutes ago, Embee said: Just a few more months of JVS, hang in there Ah yes.

The only one being Adelaide in this pre-season 1-0 behind closed doors with a Fornaroli penalty. The Craig Foster Cup against WSW was decided on penalties, and matches decided on penalties are shown as draws in the record books. (That's true for all matches decided on penalties.) TBH not even sure that "behind closed doors" pre-season matches are regarded as "official" matches anyway. I don't recall us playing any "pre-season matches" at AAMI - certainly not open to the public. The one I recall against Perth was at Epping where we were pulverised 5-1. Whichever way you look at it, IMO none of our pre-seasons have given us cause to be really excited by our prospects for the following season and our record against other A-League clubs whether it be one or two wins is very poor. For me, and I suspect others, that's the main point being made. Edited September 12, 2016 by jw1739 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovan Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Our preseason is Einstein definition of insanity. Doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results.
