It's more his marking, passing and positioning that is worrying me. Nuvillo is having it easy. At least Roy has been tracking back and McG helping out.

I'm hopeful Manny can turn it around though.

Looks like one of those games where the team that scores first wins. Frustrating watching this. Think those two big losses have knocked the stuffing out of us.

I would strongly disagree. I like what I'm seeing from both teams. Boxall is huge in defence and Roly and WeeMac doing great in midfield. If Burns hadn't decided to take pity on Velaphi, or if Roy had just gone inside the post, we'd be 1-0 up and there'd be no angst.

I was worried when Louis went down in the box. Shoulders and all that.

Just lacking confidence. Managed to watch this first half at airport ; we started playing okay after 15 min. We've had the better chances,. I think Roly has been really poor though.

Seems obvious Manny is under orders to get forward. 

Louis Fenton has been good in a couple of runs.

It's a relief to have Riera back. Even though we have been under a lot of pressure he has been very good.

Dafuq is Doloras on about? I haven't heard anyone on here say Krishna is complete shark and doesn't deserve to play? And as for no angst if we scored, well I don't think anyone could argue that we were not at our best in those first minutes. We almost got scored on three times! But we look fairly well matched and I think the comments on this thread reflect that

Nothing will work on a tablet as most streams require Flash.

Should be fine on a samsung as android can use flash, just apple that can't (I think). I watched streams of Nix games in europe on my nexus 5 which has android.

Android used to be able to support flash, this is no longer the case.

you can still download and install the flash apk if you find it. Works but no longer supported. I still use flash every so often, youtube videos embedded in non - mobile friendly sites.

Shark, clearly I've been away for too long and the "Krishna is a waste of an import slot" scapegoatery has died down to the point that it's been forgotten about. Sorry.

I actually thought both Fenton and Muscat were good. No easy task having to be available as an attacking outlet and at the same time keep tabs on Novillo, who is a handful for any A League fullback. Really good runs from both and almost goals to show for them.

Don't be a dick all your life. Read the end of last weeks thread and the associated angst.

I think Alex is doing alright but Vinnie might just bring a bit more presence to the duels in midfield. get him warmed up Ernie.

Did the commentator just say we have had 133 corners this seaon and haven't scored from one??? That is less goals than the ratio I'd expect of goal kicks to goals.

frustrating stuff so far. Getting close but being undone by poor touches or passes when it matters.
