Bring on port doctor

 

[Hamingja]

That is a challenging thing to do, take a throw, throw it in and straight back out.

 

[GOALden Hawk]

So sloppy in possession and not dealing with the pressing game too well so far.

If I had a penny for every time I've said that watching the Socceroos...

Am I blind or was the advertising poor? I didn't even know the game was on until now.

 

[Fabab]

Brutal to watch as usual,what does Irvine offer apart from guessing the coin toss?

Wasn’t even on CH7’s sports coverage which is a disgrace for the Melbourne nightly news

He's one of the very few players playing regularly in a 1st division team in a top league. He is not the problem. Overall the players just aren't skilled enough. Saudis passing and 1st touches are so much better

Didn't want to lose the viewers to ch 10

I asked what he offers to the team ?

 

[giggler99]

Farrk what a golden opportunity wasted

 

[burge13]

Whats this new fascination with a CB playing it to the GK on goal kicks?! The gk hoofs it long 100% of the time anyway

Edit: right after I post they do it again. How has this become a thing

Pathetic attitude from our media but agreed this is the reason you won't hear **** all about it

 

[GOALden Hawk]

What on earth is this goal kick routine we are doing?

 

[kaiserchief13]

Amazing goal keeping. 100% a goal if Matt Ryan was keeper, though doesn't matter because offside, not that he knew that

Noticed it in my minimal aleague viewing too. Achieves nothing, love to know who's come up with it

 

[nobbyiscool]

6 minutes feels light for stoppage time. The non-penalty stoppage would've been that long.

 

[giggler99]

Irvine.. so close

 

[ioppolo]

Oh dear, that's a farken boner killer of a finish.

 

[Fabab]

well won by Irvine terrible finish.

You're right, Irvine is not THE problem...but he is part of it, as you say. We just aren't skilled enough

He is a solid foot soldier, who works hard. Even top teams sometimes have need for one.

But all our players are solid footsoldiers who work hard

Apart from Bos and Hrustic, we cant control the ball in tight.

Any opposing coach just need to tell his team...press them! you'll win the ball

 

[GOALden Hawk]

Been poor for a lot of that yet had 3-4 fantastic chances to score. Duke is slow slow up front, need a change there.

Missing Goodwin badly.
