Melbourne City vs Western Sydney Wanderers 09/1/2016 7:30PM

Must win.

First.

Out.

 

WSW 2 - 1 

Can't wait for this, should be a great game! Little bit concerned by the City side but I think we've got this

Santalab doubtful. Injury.

GolGol to be striker sub then.

So Mooy and the rest are back apart from Franjic. In other words they were tested last week.

Must win. 

 

Need to build up the momentum again.

 

2-2 but.

 

Bridge or Andreu, Nichols

So Mooy and the rest are back apart from Franjic. In other words they were tested last week.

 

They certainly were tested. They were second best for most of the game.

 

I'll take a draw here. That would be a decent result. City will be adding Caseres to their roster too shortly. They have a great squad now to be sure plus a massive financial backing, pity they have no fans and don't seem to represent anyone in particular

Anoyone coming down for the game? And pre match pub etc. to go to?

Almost in Albury, our stop before the game.

 

The Manfred, Pseudonym, Lloydy136 and mickisnot road trip to Melbourne is nearing its destination.

 

Hide your kids, hide your wife because we nearing Melbourne.

 

This match could go either way with them being slight favourites.

 

Would take a draw if Roar lose.

 

That'd work nicely.

Ive got confidence in the young kid Aspro to do well, if he was to pick up a card.

Please don't

 

Odds are that he will get one in either of the next 2 games.

As long as topor stays clean tommorow night, we need our captain for the derby

Pepper marking Novillo??

 

Where is The Author??

Never really understood the fuss over Novillo. Poor man's Ibini is all.

My one worry with Pepper on that side is Castelen's lower defensive work rate. Neville does an incredible amount of running up & down the line to compensate for Castelen (which Popa rightly advises in order to keep Romeo fresh). Usually, when Neville goes forward, Andreu covers, but he can only really do it for a short time while Neville is getting back.

 

Long story short, between Pepper & Andreu, do we have legs to adequately defend our right side in transition? IMO, City's are arguably the HAL's best in transition.

FUUUUUCKING GAAAAME DAAAAY

Why are we all talking Pepper? What have I missed?

 

Edit: Neville suspended

Popa has named him as Neville replacement.. I'd rather Aspro myself...I'm hoping for a bit of gamesmanship from Popa..

Popa said he was coming back from injury in the next week or two, I expect to see him have a run out in the NYL

Cant see Aspro playing RB
