Round 8 - Adelaide vs Sydney FC - 20/12/24

I reckon the use of Costa (not Costa specifically) thats killing us as much as the questionable defense. Costa is constantly moving around the field and not sticking to one side, which means Anas and Lolley have to as well, which means there are 3 players there who are trying to work out where they have to be and not ready to defend.

Decent strike

See, play Paddy on the shoulder, it’s the only place he can do stuff.

Great hit, and good hustle from Wood to force the chance too.

Ouahim again a key contributor. His goal involvement stats must be pretty high for us.

Wood was very close to being offside there but I think the refs just feel bad for us at this point.

Sena needs to not do that.

Going to be some nervous moments with Devonshire Tea at the back.

A whole new midfield will also disrupt things. Anas / Sena / Costa. Weaker defence as you said, then Redmayne having a bad season, Grant a year older. All adds up.

His deal ends then. We really shouldn’t be renewing. Popovic should be on the bench and Matthews starting purely for that reason.

Great bit of play there

Sorry to him but I just a good laugh at Sena, Caceres, & Costa playing in tight with flicks and heels only for Grant to just pass it straight over the side. One for a JayFC reel I reckon.

Can we just whip a fucking corner in? Stop dicking about

I do wonder if we’re missing the workrate of Holman in pressuring the man on the ball too, particularly in those transitions after we’ve had the ball for a period and everyone has moved upfield…
