I still think though Siggie has blocked their attack on the left, that he limits our attack on the right, and that we looked much better going foward with Muscat there against Sydney. that's a pickle.


Thats a fair point. Do you want a defender that shuts down other attacks or builds up your own from the back?

Interestingly that with Lockhead not playing that well this year compared to last, the men in front of him (Daniel, Kwas and Gao) have looked ordinary...


well if he doesn't it really means that Brown, McKain, Covs, Smeltz and Lochhead have to play really well to distribute and make runs and create chances...

Perth seem to be playing 5 or 6 guys back on the 6 yard box at times, very difficult to find a way through.

I hope Ricky tears them a new one in the changing room because this is abysmal. The only playershowing any effort  is Bertos, our strikers are non existant, no penetration from the midfield, no effort from anyone else, all that possesion and only 2 shots on goal, pathetic.Take off Gao and Covney and bring on Daniel and Costa please.
 
It isnt THAT bad. We are all over perth. Its just incredibly frustrating that we cant penetrate or even get a shot off
 
EDIT: ok...sexual innuendo anyone?


I never got lucky this week either

I honestly can't see us scoring 2 let alone 3 goals in this game primarily because we haven't looked like scoring in a long long while.

Daniel in a central role, push Smeltz forward, Bertos to the left, Costa to the right

I kinda get the feeling he'd be more "Oh, it's OK guys, just go out there and win it!!!"
 
which is exactly the problem


Yeah, he's not exactly Mr. Inspiring. Still, they get paid to play the game - they shouldn't need any more inspiration than that.

Coveny was abit slow there. Thesesubs had better happen soon.
 
Uh oh...Durante injury? How so very odd bringing ferrante on. Daniel doesnt even seem to be interested in getting on at this stage.
