Nix are parking the bus with the entire team behind the ball and then breaking on a counter whenever possible. This could be a long death with our incompetent passing and mediocre defending.

Can any of the footballing brains here suggest how to combat this?

We have five defenders and three midfielders and left a gigantic gaping hole in the defensive midfield position. How?

Stop giving the ball away 

[TwoLeftFoots]

Ibini yeboah earnt the points last outing, earnt their start.

Now for Cox and duke to prove they're worth.

Perhaps ibini off for mutch and give Muller 10 up front.

I prefer odoherty at am.

And setting up a game to be as boring as possible.

That's what happens when you let a team in equal last score first.

one of the midfielders should have had devilla they didn’t so Ziggy stepped leaving a massive gap 

O’Doherty and Baccus need to sort it

Talay half time talk. "Ok guys, now all we have to do is target matta with long balls amd leave 10 men at rhe back".

To be honest Paul, I’d hook Bernie before Yeboah, at least he’s tested the keeper

[Benched]

What’s with the Wellington support? Is there a travelling Mexican side staying in the Gong this weekend? Well done to the Wellington brains trust for the rent a crowd.

Have to agree. He's been ghosting around.

[MathyouWSW]

You can see Phoenix are putting on Natta running down the right and seems they'll continuously do it throughout the game.

Yeboah has been OK this game. I feel Ibini needs to lift his game or take him off and make way for Duke.

I think Natta's been fine.

Hmmm. Fine doesn't win titles. I think Davilla has been turning him inside out. Harsh i know.

[mack]

Davila isn't playing in the forward line, it shouldn't be Natta's job to track him.

[WSWJACK]

Ref has been waiting for excuse to give Davilla a yellow, ok with that

I agree, but man on man he should clean up.

[Neverbloom]

we need to actually try to hit the target one day

And we're still doing it 

[MathyouWSW]

Enough with the f*cking short corner kicks.

[ZachMercer]

We are literally all pressure no end product. (I'm writing this to hopefully eat my words)

[EmMac]

Muller hasnt been great this game

[mack]

Instead of taking a muller right footed inswinger corner to the near post, he goes short, loses the ball then gives away a foul.
