Get into it! Cmon the Nix!
WPM Finals W1 vs Western United | Sat 14th May | 9:45pm | SS7
Poor pass from Sandoval, he played an intuitive one without looking - and that is how we lose the ball. Corner.
Can I just say, poor turnout for a finals match. Are these guys even a real club? Ridiculous.
Still banging on about Piscopo over hitting his passes. It was one pass!
WU seem to be playing better without Topor Stanley.

Pennington and Sandoval have both tried to force passes and missed in the last few minutes.
Need some individual brilliance from somewhere. Piscopo shooting too much…
we look better when running at their defence. pity our structure tonight is to slow the game down.
I see WU pressing much higher than they did in their previous games.
We seem to be deliberate in our build up and transition.
They’re happy enough to sit deep and let us.

See how long it takes Uffie to react.
He usually trusts his teams.
this footballl is absolutely aweful. just a bunch of guys standing around rolling the ball to each other

WU counter attack at speed, we dick around and slow it down and achieve nothing but pressure on our own defence. Quite frustrating and I really dislike the 3 man defence. player a more 4-4-2 is so much better with the players we have.
Pick up the pace lads. Move the ball fast and run, it's all slowed down.
Settling into this with untroubled build up play, but they'll be happy to just let us have the ball because it's all in front of them, need to get in behind and turn them. Liking Hooper trying to come deeper and get on the ball. But it's slowed to the pace that they want, they can manage this and will suit them perfectly.

Yea, a 3rd Melbourne and Sydney team were a massive mistake by the FFA. They thought more derbies would be good but it just hasn't worked out - at least yet. Think they're long term projects but meh
Vital we don't ship another goal before HT. We look really fragile right now.

We're never going to score with our snail pace build up speed.
We seen too structured and predictable.
We normally score on the counter but we are playing a game for them to his us on it.
Very frustrating

Or as others have said previously we’ve beaten them with counter attacking with Sotirio and Waine with swift transitions and pace in behind.
Here we’re time wasting for them. This is our most experienced attack on paper, but they haven’t played together much and we haven’t played these tactics recently.
Faster transitions now though…
Hopper playing well even if he looks like he should be a prop for the Canes.
We look so fudgeing good running at them
It's mean we are finding a way to get the ball into the box bit fudge me someone's gotta have the stones to take a shot once the ball is in the box.
I'd swap Piscipo for Sotirio at half time.
Sutts not having his best game.
Piscopo has to stay on, but yeh- Sotirio was preferred to Hooper at key points of the season and it was a gamble to not include him.

Fudge WU are doing such a good job of getting defenders behind the ball
Sutts not having his best game.
Amazing. We have a bench! When was the last time we had an actual bench that could create an impact?
Last game out.
i can see Hooper trying very hard. but its not happening for him tonight. I can see him having an early shower. with Waino coming on
Sutts not having his best game.
He’s covered a lot of gaps in our team this season- the much more vaunted front 4 should have scored.
You can see how little time Hooper and Sandoval spent playing together - I do not think they know each other.
Why are we so slow on the counter?
WTF what a poor first half…
WTF what a poor first half…
Well this is sucking balls. Very disappointing performance.
Going to bump my opinion that Sandoval is crap. Doesn't do any defensive work and does nothing going forward. Old on please...
Need Sotirio on for Hooper to inject some pace into our midfield. Possibly play 4-4-2, or 4-2-3-1 as we're very shaky at the back
Oli Sail deserves much, much, much better protection in front of him.
Sutts is having a very poor game so far. Been caught out several times which has lead to snake attacks down that left hand flank.
Predictable pace from us after initially playing with a bit of freedom and flair. Lots of work on's for Uffie at the half, but we can still get this with a few tweaks and adaptations.
As an aside, Surman has a very bright future ahead. Been switched on and up to the task from the get go.

45 minutes to save this team’s reputation!
Where’s the win coming from?
We’ve gone with plan A and it hasn’t worked so far. Sotirio and Waine should feature, but for who and when?
We’ve had Payne get in behind and cross to Hooper once almost successfully, but it’s no way to chase a game IMO.
Actually that might have been from a lovely left foot pass from Surman. I think it’s more that we haven’t lived up to our potential than they’ve outplayed us.

Hopefully we can come out with a drastic improvement in intent like the second half of the last game. Except this time we make the win happen.
COYN!
COYN!
Sotirio for Sandoval and start playing on the counter at pace ffs. Sandoval only looks like hes running coz he knows he'll get a bollocking if he doesn't. God i wish we had another midfield option coz Pennington is playing sharke.

Well he's the top G+A in our team, so...
I agree he's been nothing doing tonight though. That ankle tap f-d him. Typical of when we play in Aus, the ref just lets the other team foul out our creative players.
