Poch def got his work cut out with the defence. We defend like a kids team. All aimlessly run towards the ball, oblivious to whats going on around you or pack the goal area and hope the 4 unmarked players lining up a shot on the edge of the box dont get lucky. Amazes me how pro footballers can look like they have no experience what so ever.
Anyway, early days yet. And please, no more mentions of top 4. Its embarrassing.
Totally agree. Seattle are a good all round team and top their league (and are in their season). That said even as an opening warm up game our back four and midfield were disjointed lacked pace and the communication was very poor at times. Naughton, Rose, Dawson and Lennon were simply not good enough against a team of youngsters and journeymen. It was also quite evident that aside from Kaboul our remaining defenders were left flat footed at times and way off the pace. As i said this result does not mean jack-shit but this team of professionals should still have performed better. It's not as if we had an entirely new back four now is it?
