Wheres the pride, where is the effort? Who was the captain there...where was the leadership on the field?? The sad thing is that most of the team just quit on Dunfield last year and it was a huge nosedive to the bottom of the league. Games like that one make me wonder if its happening again. The GLOW from a new coach has worn off quickly, now Herdman has to prove he can actually motivate people. As my grampa always told me, "everyones your friend when its going good", When the real leaders on the team are gone (Oso/Lareya) whos going to step up and get the dirty jobs done? I think I'm watching too many footy podcasts. I read this whole post in the voice of Roy Keane and it sounded even better. Bison44 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingston Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 And this is why it is sometimes so frustrating to be a sports fan. Complete domination in the first half but only one goal. It should have been three and could have been five. Then two brief lapses in the second half for a loss. Bernardeschi: I totally appreciate his effort and play. Also, he should never be taking our penalties. I guess the only plus side is that the team made mistakes, as opposed to giving up. (And, of course, the knowledge that we never would have lost if our hero and captain, Jonathan Osorio, had been available for the game.) Last year's game nineteen was also a loss so we remain at +5 on the season. Corazon and to70 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGAA_Star Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 2 damn losses in a row but last night's loss was just so frustrating because we had that game against Nashville...and that Berna penalty miss like 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 why sprint from so far? You are going to slip every time if you do that but how? Like why put power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herdman, I find, is more than happy to take credit when his team is having success. Then, completely sewers his players when they lose or don't meet expectations.

I hope he turns it around and finds his groove, but I feel his skillset might fit better with national teams than clubs. The breaks and time in between probably work in his favor. I would love to be wrong on this one. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to be wrong on this one. I wonder what he was thinking following his club's crap effort on Wednesday as he watched his former team's lead up to the Copa opener vs Argentina yesterday? The defensive play has been mind boggling poor, a point driveñ home like a stake into sand vs Nashville, and not just one guy.

Gian-Luca Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Herdman's signings are looking worse with each match. Poor giveaways by Long, Longstaff and Long-Flores again the whole night. You can't have Matty Longstaff as the key man trying to generate offence in the centre of the park. Also time to give JMR a start ahead of Derek Etienne Jr. who has surprised me this season with how terrified he is to shoot the ball at the net.

Kingston Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I did not get to watch any of this game, just saw the score. Not good. I'm not entirely sure why the team is suddenly playing so badly - because it hasn't been a series of close losses or anything like that; it has been big losses against teams that we shouldn't be losing badly to. Last year's game twenty was also a loss so we remain at +5 on the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys that can play better are sleep walking. Long hasnt meshed with the 2 FB signed last year. The midfield has no bite, they arent taking their defensive duties seriously. Gavran is trying his best to keep the team in it and you can see his frustration with everyone letting people walk into the box and take free shots. You still have the bones of a playoff team. Herdman needs to show that he can do something...anything to motivate these guys (did you catch that buzz/catch phrase word salad he had after the last game?). Lareya and Oso will be back eventually but it sure seems like the rot has set in yet again. Corazon, Nello and Ivan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
