Serious ? This is not IDs. If players cant clear with their weaker foot what are they doin in A league ffs. When the keeper wins possession would much rather my FBs releasing on their strong side for the counter.Quote:

ummmm has anyone told him hes allowed to talk to his players from the bench? how can he see that and do nothing til halftime?
He also singled out Caravella as being really good and the type of player a 6 or 8 should be. Maybe a dig at Jobe? but surprise surprise hes going to pump up a player that he shafted the captain for.
so sick of this shit.
Caravella was good? He had at least 5 touches in the first half that went straight to opposition players... he made Mitchell look good with the ball, FFS. Crock of shit.

GVE's failure to recognise or admit the sides weaknesses or deficiencies has been the whole undoing this year.
I know he has a lot of haters but letting NTS go was the worst decision we made...well that and signing Mitchell
When you think back to season 6 under Branko, Topor was our player of the year. Had an ordinary season last year under GVE, then becomes arguably the form defender under Popovich this season......???Quote:

Egg seems to want to set players up to fail - maybe he wants to make Ryan a scapegoat or something, but that role is not his gig
Virgili still thinks he is playing under 15s with his one dimensional approach to the game and defenders must be very grateful when Egg head continually selects him. In saying all of that, I thought that in various stages of the game, we looked sharp and cohesive. I thought Caravella brought a lot of positives, but playing him so deep completely nullifies what he could bring to our attack. Again, I would question basically what the fark The Egg was thinking. I also thought that Goodwin seemed preoccupied and not really interested. Chapman showed genuine class on occasions. Egg van needs to change his playing style and study the mariners' structure. I would go with the 442 with a midfield diamond. Zad needs to play further up the park.
Birrighitti
Hoole Chapman ? Ritter
Brilliante
Caravella Goodwin
Zadkovich
Heskey Griffiths
? = regz
Kovacic>Mitchell
He is done at the jets while GVE is here. Squeezed out early in the season, took his chance, then gave GVE the perfect excuse to put him in exile again.Quote:

To be fair though (and I know I've said this before but anyway), if I gave my boss a serve, I would expect punishment. All Regz had to do was keep his mouth shut rather than have a go at GvE.Quote:

That's why I don't understand the van dicknose fan boys. Bloke is not picking players based on ability. We suffer because of this bullshit. Also how can anyone could not get pissed off about a newy boy, as newy as they come, not getting a start in a team which is supposed to be based on local talent.Quote:
