Victory thought they'd get Ange in and start playing the the lovely tactics that Brisbane used
the thing is they hired the wrong member of Brisbane's coaching staff and you can't turn mules into those dancing horses you see at the Olympics and El Cabalo Blanco etc etc
Hes spoken about this before, its a deliberate ploy of his never to go straight back to the rooms after a game (especially a loss). He goes through his post match comments a thousand times in his head to make sure hes measured and not emotional.Originally Posted by belchardo
His reasoning is that months of goodwill and positive buildup of players confidence etc can be eroded in an instant if you go in there screaming and carrying on like an idiot. Says its the easiest way to lose the dressing room in a hurry (for more on this see: Kosmina, J).
He reakons Fergie is the only one that can get away with it because everyone is so shitscared of him.
The way Ange has his teams play relies heavily on having a Broich amoung the ranks to not only assist the strikers but to also give defenders under pressure a target when playing out from the back.
No suprises.
I think you're all being very quick to judge the Victory. The signs are there that they will be a force when it all clicks.
Can't believe I picked Victree to win the league!!!!
Must have been day dreaming and forgot that Leijer Milligan Foschini can't defend. Don't know what depth they have there but Ange is gonna need to find some defenders fast!!
It was almost as if Ange had spent an entire pre season working on the possession based game and as soon as Victree were put under some pressure they reverted to the counter attack style of prior years. Sure they had some good quantity of possession but done little with it. Everything they did create was on the break. No wonder he looked pissed.
GVE should take note of Victree's efforts and make sure Taggart and all other speedy options are used in the Victree games as they are a slow back 4 and waiting to be exploited
Heart were in the first half a little all over the show. Created their stuff out of nothing. In the second half sat back way too deep and picked Victree off almost at will on the counter. Shame their finishing was Zadko like otherwise it may have finished 8-1. Was surprised they didn't actually really take Victree on a bit more as they were waiting to be issued the last rights but Aloisi took the conservative approach to try and keep it tight and get troops back and defend what they had.
Not really fussed on the Heart midfield trio of Thommo - Fred - Garcia don't look like they have the necessary defensuve aspects to be a great success
This.
Good teams do not happen overnight
Heard the same thing for 20 odd rounds last season on a weekly basis. Until even the Tards got the point that they were shit and over rated and accepted they were crap
As much as I'm loving the fact I can access radio coverage of all of these games overseas, the Wello v. Smurfs commentary is just giving me nasty flashbacks to those parochial Kiwi muppets who cover the matches on TV....
proper Aussie commentators on this game
well, Simon Hill and Andy Harper, one of whom is a pom and the other I'm not prepared to claim as Australian
Del Pieros nutmegs have been quite fun so far......
shitney showing they're aids as usual.
Shitney are poo.
Agree, but until then they can eat @#$%.
del tha dag 'o' aint doin much. Poor Ali A.
FT 2-0 Wellington

Herbert saying "it's unfair to us" in reference to having to coach the all whites and nix, plus having 5 first teamers out.
Pull your head in mate, you chose to do both jobs and as for internationals, you can sign 9 more visa players than the other established A-League clubs. It's not our fault if you sign your international FFS.
Sydney looked like and played like a team that's just been recently patched together. Having said that, we always seem to look like that also when we play over at Wellington. Del Piero was a class above his team-mates and provided the only spark. Fabio was crap.....is that the same Fabio who played for Victory?
Could be a long season for the Sky Blues while Phoenix look their normal well-organised and competitive selves.
Gypos wearing 2 stars above their badge on their shirts now. But didn't they lose 3 grand finals? Gypos still can't count.
Boz, Ange, Rudan all giving them shit over it.
****ing Gypos.
Also, Tarek dropped from WSW team for 1st game.
thought Abbas was good when he came on for Sydney.
Brockie was Brockie for Nix.
Hope Labi gets a run and scores 10 goals tonight.
