6 goals in a game does not make it a great game because the Perth draw was a better watch. I watched another 15 and still thought it was crap football. The Man U game was a better watch. They open the game up and don't try to play as if they live in a 10 y square and every one needs to be in it. In this league, if you play with width and open the game out, you will sit in the top half of the table quite easily. I get the short football but you can play 20y passes and open the game to stretch the defenders out and find the holes a hell of a lot easier than tiki taka. I'm watching the Melbourne game and there is pretty much always 6-7 players within 5 yards of the ball cause no one opens it out.

Which is why they always play backwards. Boxed in, no options, too many bodies, go backwards.
