Maybe it's just because CCM are bad, but Krishna looks a lot better with Watson up front too; it seems to give him a lot more space.

To those that talk the rubbish about how Italiano could step up and potential fight for a start this year, I give you this game to show you how good and solid Moss is.

Lowry is having a good, no-frills game

was just going to say this. At first I thought it was harsh on Fox to start Lowry ahead of him but I can see why Ernie did it now. He looks very composed

was that Watson with the assist?

My main man Vince Lia surely

Pirlo-esque weighting on the dinked pass. I couldn't tell who it was in real time and then I missed it on the replay

Watson's assist bro.

I think Watson is a lot better than he gets credit for, and his size adds another dimension to our attacks. He doesn't naturally fit into Ernie's preferred formation though

His Goal per minute ratio is right up there with the best.

Red card per minutes ratio would also be good.

Yeah plus he does the target man role of holding players off and winning long balls and so on really well too. Always seems to know where his team mates are.

What the fudge did Ernie put in the oranges at half time? Everyone has performed much better second half.

Okon with a rookie FM mistake... played the third sub too early.

Italiano stood up when needed to keep it 2 - 0. Kicking has been wayward, but no costly blunders.

Ridenton has been better this half, seems a good attacking outlet... just not great defensively.
