Tranquilo

Need Marcelo back in and possibly the 4 backs just concentrate on defending and forget about trying to overlap in attack, if not Rudan might have to go with 3 central defenders and then the 2 wingbacks. Hendrix will cover in great at the back sitting just infront of Marcelo. Either way i think Rudan has run out of ideas and options with the limited players and formations available. Lets try not to concede within 10 minutes and playing from the back is risky as we have seen in the past. Defence first then the goals will come.

I don't think Rudan will be going anywhere well at least not this season. Its up to him to lift the lads out of this lump, wasn't too long ago in the FA Cup we smashed Adelaide 5-0 and started off the season fantastic, with a solid defence, yet now we are leaking goals left right and centre. Rudan has lost faith in his defence with the constant swapping and changing of Tate,Clisby,Cleur,Simmons, then chucking scicluna and beadling in there with the absence of Marcelo to cover. Then to only get rid of them at half time cause the "better the devil you know" which still resulted in a few more leaked goals. Marcelo is the only decent defender cause our left and right backs are too focused on providing width in attack but then being exposed at the back as in the case of Simmons arriving to late to defend one of the goals. Sucks that every season we lose our best players and there is a constant squad rotation but welcome to the A--League. Something has happened as this is the same squad that started the pre season so brightly. Confidence is down and mentally they have already written off the season. Would love the team including Rudan to lift again and try to at least be competitive cause the last 4 weeks ending with the history making 7-0 defeat have been disappointing, embarrassing and insulting to us fans and members who support this club. These guys are professional athletes but at the moment it seems they are clueless.

When it rains literally in Parramatta, it bloody pours on and off the field! Lets hope we can pick up 3 points against Western Utd cause Roar are hot on our heels for 6th spot.

The long awaited goalkeeper kit didn't last too long on the market for sale. I wonder if Nike again unanticipated the interest around the kit despite the numerous request from fans and the media! and even professional goalkeepers!

Lolley is a gun and cuts in well to take a shot, i saw that someone suggested our left and right backs try not to venture to fwd up and leave us exposed, its a good idea.

Very important match, will determine if like last season we slip away from the top 3 or we continue to keep the pressure on mariners and victory. Macarthur and ESFC have caught up to us now. Unfortunately this time around we haven't had a good streak lately with ourselves partly to blame and also unable to finish off teams earlier has cost us, meanwhile the smurfs are gaining momentum heading towards the end of the season. Hopefully our home ground advantage takes into play and we drown out the smurfs. Marcelo needs to guide the troops at the back can't afford any sloppy mistakes in a big match like this saturday. Need someone constantly niggling and not giving Caceres much room to breath as once he has the ball he gets more and more into the game and can cause havoc. Tough match will be a close one. Red n Black will prevail!

Time for Western Sydney to dominate again on and off the field. Kudos to all who will either go to match or fill their local pubs watching the game, the more publicity we get for derbies the better it will be for the game. We need this fixture to be up again as a set date on everyones calendar and to not be forgot by the media. Rudan will have the boys up and firing for sat night reminding them of who they represent and what it means the wear the red and black hoops!

not clisby again!

Antonis?

Bozanic can cover him and needed more game time in our season, he is a solid player

We all saw that they were coming strong the 2nd half and it was only a matter of time. Sometimes half time can be a curse as it changes the play and whos bossing it. Still proud of our season but dam it hurts loosing to the Smurfs and at home. 28 000 for a finals match, it was a good night for football. A lot of what ifs but thats football, decision making from players and personal make the game. #eastsydney #scabs
