Going good ay.

I'll still give Miller the benefit of the doubt for a while, he had nothing but time for the fans and kids before kickoff last night, and saw a few people having words with him.
I wonder if he's been given a target on points to achieve for the season rather than aiming for the finals, as he is playing the team far to defensive for my liking...
With that said, I don't really rate most of our key blokes up front, so I'm not sure where he goes to play more attacking football.
The last few games I have noticed we defend far better when we're actually putting some pressure on for a few minutes, even on the counter attacks, obviously makes sense that this would be the case, but one wonders how we'd go if miller was more willing to run with a more attacking formation.
I don't think getting rid of miller will solve anything. We have had 4 coaches since the start of 2014.
Reality is we lack a consistent finisher eg like smeltz, berisha and other clubs have more third party money etc
I'm happy to give him this season and next, then if the club is still not going forward then questions need to be asked.
Overall defensivly this season we have been impressive. Don't forget only one game we have lost by more then one goal.
peaple seem to forget this is the jets,
have a look at the squad we have. reality is we are sitting alot better then what we should be.
Miller i think is the perfect choice so far. players, crowd etc love him. he is not up him self.
not even a KLOPP ETC would do much better.
In this league it all comes down to cash....we have none, the scum have none and the squads show it.....if we can add a goal threat and someone to create some chances we can hand the spoon to the scum.
So can someone explain to me how Popovic did it?
Cause everyone laughed at his squad yet somehow they did OK.
So did those players miraculously get better or did the coach do it?
For a start he had a back 4 and keeper of Covic, Elrich, Beauchamp, Topor and D'Apuzzo. 4/5 of those are socceroos.
Shinji Ono and Mooy were in midfield and are wayyyyyy better than any players we have. Even weak ankles Bridge is an experienced A League forward as was Haliti. People may have laughed at that squad but a lot of people are idiots.
So when he gets a squad of players of his choice (Which is nothing but an excuse for failing anyway )you thinking we are gonna see some attacking football or we gonna still be parking the bus???
I ain't seeing it
The bloke is negative by nature and a leopard never changes its spots
It is worth giving him the time until then... i believe at the moment he is playing the type of football we have to play to get some results.
The gypos are in the same boat, their team isn't up to scratch, they decide they will play attacking football at all costs... its costing them!
We have been a terrible team for years now, the squad we currently have is probably the weakest out of those yet Miller has made us difficult to beat. You must do that before you can win every game and play beautiful flowing football.
If he put this team out to play attacking football we would see melbourne city scores quite frequently.
Or we can be hard to break down get a few draws and get a few wins here and there (be snatched wins or from playing well) and we are better off than we have been in years.
The football isnt entertaining, im definitely on board with that. But i feel if you sat through last year and thought a quick fix was coming, you are as crazy as stubbins!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
Why doesn't the Jets become the first A-League club to appoint a female assistant coach?
I have no one in mind. But it would generate a lot of positive publicity and buzz around the club. I reckon the Herald might even do a front-page, wrap-around, cover special thingy, with a feature article written by young Bob Dillon. Or better yet - get a FEMALE journo to write it!
Just a thought.
