Melbourne City vs Western Sydney Wanderers 26/03/2021 7:05PM

In all seriousness, the Ref needs to be rested next week. You can't watch a player go down under heavy contact (it was not off the ball), hit the ground hard and stay down, and not stop play. It's dangerous and negligent.

[wendybr]

City are really just too good atm.

They've well and truly outgrown the "Heartless" label, I think.

[matty]

How is that not a foul by McLaren? Studs up into McGowan's ankle?

[mack]

4-1. 

Still time for it to get worse.

[Cynth]

Where did the Wanderers go? 

[Unlimited]

Yes, leave the Socceroos striker with a free volley

Great defending...

The lessons should be strong in their memory. Tonight we find out if we bullied some flogs or if there’s been genuine progression

Yep, we bullied some flogs

[WSWJACK]

Back to one good half one bad half ☹️

No  they haven't 

Diving for penalties and free kicks.

Knocking players out without punishment.

Kisnorbo is un-Australian in his coaching.

Flat track bullies

And not defending the crap officiating but we just seemed to give up in the second half...

This

I can understand getting caught in behind pushing players forward to chase the game but it was a set piece.

[scarcev]

Whinge and whine all we want, they were too good in every department ref or no ref.  You cannot play football against them the only teams that trouble them play route one and we learnt nothing from our last loss to them.

[WSWJACK]

Wish muller get rid of that f*****g cockatoo

This

We found out which WSW side turned up.......the half a game one.

CR has to take the tactical blame for this.

Not.Good.Enough

Agreed, but the officiating needs to be called out, it doesn't make us whingers to want accountability. 

They were too good.

The officiating was unacceptable.

Both things can be true.

Exactly.  Well said.

[WSWJACK]

Well they are the benchmark so far it seems, back to the training ground and get back into it, good night🧐

[redpanther61]

The ref helped them tonight but it we still played shite. No heart or effort from players such as Bachus.,  Yeboah,Kamou and Muller. I can’t understand why they are picked every week. We also need to muscle up, to teach teams they are playing the Wanderers. We have no enforcers.

We were ok in the first half.

[matty]

Gotta say, I like Kisnorbo.

[redpanther61]

It sad to think that their captain Jamison is an ex Wanderers player. CR should show the players the video of this game and say that  what Wanderers expect from their players.

We were the fourth best team out there in the first half. We had very little of the ball and scored a goal against the play apart from that I didn't see a lot.

He's doing a great job!

Yeboah, Kamau and Muller are the least of our problems they only come on when it was game over. Troisi however what a waste of space

[wendybr]

CR...a gracious loser, makes a realistic evaluation of the quality of both teams.

Proud to have him as our manager...win or lose.

 

[mack]

The whole team was a waste of space outside that 5 seconds it took to score. One shot on target in 98 minutes. It's pathetic.

[Frankos187]

-Robinson basically called out Maclaren for diving. 

-muller is finished 

-Margush can’t punch clear

-subs+switch the 4231 killed the game
