If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Against better opposition our fullbacks should be ready to defend on the front foot.
Not committing to an attack so our inexperienced CB gets dragged out.

We need to let the midfield do the attacking and at this time in our season against this opposition we should have focussed on defence tonight and felt out the game.

That’s how less skilled teams beat better teams, defend, hit them, frustrate them then work on specific counter attacks.

Should have 4-1-4-1. Or 4-5-1 tonight.

I don’t think Jacko style really suits being the less skilled team against better teams.
We just got away with it last year thanks to 4/5 big contributors we lost.

Sick of forum members attacking each other, perhaps?

That was unnecessary.

Love Kaltak as much as you like. One would think different opinions are allowed on here.

Marking, however, has never been his strength.
Criticism of poor play is one thing. Continual one eyed riding of one particular player match after match is unhelpful and frankly, annoying and offers nothing constructive.

Combination of static defending and giving the ball away far too often. Their press has been decent but basic errors haven't helped.

Much better side punishing us effectively, but agree that this was the wrong way for Jacko to set us up against a side like this.

This is the worst we have played in the ACL. Strange line up. Two strikers, zero press. Why? Put 5 in the mid and hook Koul.
Don't know what your watching .
Their ablity to finish is light years ahead of us.
Koul has been the about our best .
We are just out classed . If we had nizz and max we could compete . But we don"t .

Bring on rubles fc

Not one of the best games ive ever been to.We’re not respecting the possession we have and are far too negative playing backwards 75% of the time. I think Brantman is a better option than Edmo and apart from his pressing Kuol has contributed nothing.
