Home league match
Luke heavy ball today so we weren't able to get the full use of Luke's strengths had some good clearances and had some comfortable saves.
Alex bit of a Trojan today his eagerness to get forward is something we will need to address as it can be useful but it leaves us way to open at the back. Made some great tackles and a few passes that really impressed us.
Leo had a solid display yet again stuck in never missed a tackle made one excellent pass in the second half which really showed his reading of the game
Levi took a little while to get going today once he did and we could smell goals he was what we wanted as he was getting stuck in and releasing players further forward
Arthur some excellent running today this was a game made for Arthur as he had space to run into and caused all sorts of problems how the keeper kept two of those out today I'll never understand ???? man of the match for Arthur
Logan some excellent football today lots of running and switched to the right hand side so that he could cut inside more and I think this really bought the best out in Logan. Great game with a lovely well taken goal
Reeve took a while to get going aswell came alive in the second half Had a shot from outside just wide of the post and had some lovely link up play as well
Henley some excellent running and getting stuck in when needed had some great chances and is growing week in week out.
Taaj again slow starter but really came alive in the second half and took his goal really well and a nice assist for Logan
Overall we played well, bit of a rollercoaster as we had some excellent passing spells that were really opening them up for some reason we seemed very apprehensive tackling these guys we have a very physical side and we do need to use this to our advantage as shown in the second half when we pressed harder we were causing all sorts off issues upfront and this is what we had asked from the boys from the get go.
We are going to be making them run on Monday at one point we noticed that three players were walking as coaches we aren't to fussed on the loss but the effort was lacking in the first half. As we have said after Xmas is when I think it will click and that's what I'm sticking by if we take the inconsistency out of the game we are going to give every team a real push and the tactical side of the game will come naturally as we have seen it in recent weeks and pockets.
Overall well done with a heavy ball and a few dodgy ref decisions thank you to all that came today as it was bloody freezing!!!
