WPM R15 vs Melbourne City FC | Fri 30th Jan | 7:00pm | RoF / SS2 - Game 500

Total bore for the neutral but since the goal we've controlled the game. Rufer excellent, Tuiloma looks great and I'm enjoying Nagasawa more and more. 

Ponderous going forward though, so looking forward to some more attacking subs 2nd half. 

I presume we started with half a team of central midfielders because Chiefy knew City play with possession like us, and tried to neutralise it. But city looks horribly shaky at the back, I'd be happy giving up a bit of control in the midfield to have more threat up top to kill the game off. 

Genuinely think if you have Eze, Piper, and then maybe the speed of Mileusnic up top, the city defence will shark the bed.

The subs will be very interesting.

Oi Oi Edgecumbe

The subs will be very interesting.

 Let's hope he doesn't wait too long this time....

No changes at half time? 

Dammit

He’ll throw everyone on at once and it’ll be a mess…and hopefully not too late.

Sorry Mr Eze, sir! 

We only need you. Only ever you. Don’t want to get in your way sir!

Yeeeeeeeeeaaaah!

Oh and King Kazu to find you.

retre and najjarine sure aren't tearing it up aren't they

Didn't give Eze much of a chance, great finish.

What a strike! Excellent!

legend!

he'd better not take eze off

Tuiloma has been class today. If you're going to play a back 5, it is great to have a back 3 with him, James & Hughes in it. 

Sigh

I have bad news.

Terrible stupid attempted first time pass from James led to that cock up.

2:1
James, bad pass, counter, unlucky for AKH. Good finish by Younis.

younis is quality. strength, pace, balance, touch

Pissing around with it at the back.
Totally deserved, useless.

I'm tearing my hair out with the way we play.

Be positive!!!

For fudges sake

Oh dear! Oh dear!!!

What a way to shoot yourself in the foot. Jesus wept it's hard to be a Nix supporter.

This aged not well.

This is my fault. I praised Bill before,  and then he played the guy on for goal 1 and then does that for the second

bummer

but he has been absolute quality up until then

I'm really disappointed in the goals we gifted city. Disaster for sure.

why is piper not up front and sheridan at RWB?

All 4 goals scored after some screw ups.

Can't blame Chiefy for mistakes here. Individual mistakes. But Is it right for a manager to be  overweight or fat. And demand respect from his players and do what he's not doing. When I think of managers I can't think of many who are as big as he is .

Sack the coach. In fact. Sack the coach and all the other coaches and statisticians that tell these guys how to play.

Not my fav decision from Chiefy. Surely LBS for Kazu, then Sheridan can drop next to Rufer.

WTH? Now I like to read your other 47 posts in the last 16 years!

Chasing a match and you take off a creative midfielder for a centre back... 

Well that was always going to happen. Never looked likely.

Sick of James 

Sorry that's an awful pen. Nowhere near the corner and at perfect height for the keeper.

Concerned James thinking he's a number 10 is gonna cost us here 

i can't comprehend how we can have najarine, retre, sheridan as 10s.

i grew up watching valeron, riquelme, kaka, seedorf, raul etc. 

we play DMs as 10s and defenders as DMs

LKH on as sub when we should be chasing a home game is a joke

Brother you are comparing some of the most elite playmakers of a generation with A-League players.

Barely even the same sport.

We only attacked in extra time.
Pathetic.
