Im really hoping the two central defensive mids do something this game. We struggle under a quick press because neither mid can make a pass or a forward run
I had been thinking this a little, but was good to see Rufer trying to get forward more last night. That little combination on the edge of the box with one of the forwards was fantastic. Both he and Mandi appear to have the skills for it at least.
I see this CCM game as a bit of a grind-out-a-result as we're missing our usual midfield.
I expect not to lose, but I might be satisfied with a point depending on how it unfolds i.e. if CCM play really well
