Ok, I've had a few days to digest that piss poor result.
1} Rufer is either not a Captain or being given the captaincy has distracted him from trying to play his own game. Not that that was worth a starting place. Let's be honest, he's been pulled twice at half time. Not a good look for a Captain to have that done to him. Talay must be questioning his probably worst decision yet.
2] Lewis has been just as sharke as Rufer and or they are both too similar. They either cannot get it sorted in midfield between themselves so someone has to do it. Talay needs to either move Lewis much further forward to AM, or drop him or drop Rufer or even drop both. It's just not working. And the forwards are being starved of ball through the middle. We should not keep on relying on wingers and crosses. We need to try other moves too.
3] Sotorio has shown in the last 2 weeks that his true level is in the NPL. that is where he scored two goals. In this game he squandered two clear chances.
4] Balls worst game for us. MIA for most part but when he got through on goal, rather than hammering a shot, he side footed passed it to their goalkeeper. WTF?? You have a lot of talent David, back yourself and use it.
5] McGarry, needs to go on "Trade Me " and buy himself a "Right Foot". His single minded left foot play has got him into so much trouble it wasn't funny.
6] Waine - Did he even get the ball? Certainly not from the central midfield.
7] Defence, stop frigging ball watching. Shut the guys down or force them wide. ggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
8] Paulsen, Young fella, you have shown some glimpses of being an excellent keeper and you gave your best. Just get the haircut and you are definitely a player for the future young man.
9] Old. Keep trying, you too, will get there, along with Van Hattum, Waine, Sutton & Paulsen. It's just a shame there is no leadership guiding you young ones into a future on the field.
10] The senior players should be ashamed of their efforts of late. They are not helping themselves or the new squad members with inept efforts of late. The Captain either needs to give them a bolloxing or rev up. But then the Captain also needs to lead by example on the field.
