We also had a full strength side for those 8 games.Whilst win-loss is very important its not everything. When we went 0-8 with Josep we could at least see the young lads playing football and learning.Prior to half our squad going down we were undefeated up until our last two games including FFA Cup and and only lost one game in preseason.I agree with Rojos. I find our new style frustrating: it’s ugly, direct and isn’t winning us games so it isn’t effective at all. This is gonna be a long season.
The last two games is where the injuries have been the difference. Take out 6 starters from any team in the league and they will get beaten by Glory 1-0 at home.
I’ve watched all FFA Cup games and all HAL games and we were looking really good until the last two weeks, even now we were only beaten by City and PG and not comfortably.
I agree it’s not great watching but it will be when we get our squad back.
