We need the club to bury it's differences with Callan Elliot and re-sign him. My thing is ball winners. It's great having entertaining full backs but we need left and right defenders who win the Duels and make interceptions. Kelly-Heald (I like him, works well with the midfield) but at this moment he doesn't cut it from a ball winning perspective. Al-Taay appears not to be much of a ball winner either.
I know, I've seen one game in which they made their club first team debut's, this is just first impressions.
That said, this was an NPL side, you can't be an A-League player and win only 40% of the Duels. You can't be A-League and only make 10 challenges.
Just an edit to be fair on Al-Taay; he made 18 challenges in 59 minutes and won 56% of them. Still that allows crosses/passes to be made 44% of the time. Elliots record last season and the season before was much better.
