Clearly something has gone wrong in the defense, after that was the area in which we had shown so much improvement.
I will have to see a video of the game but my hunch is that:
1. We are missing some essential players like Bateau and apparently Joevin Jones (fever?). We are also missing Primus!!! Will he ever recover from injury. Tallman update on him please
2. I don't feel that we are getting to play our best defense players in solid combinations of four. Each pairing has a weak link somewhere, whether weak David, slow Radanfah etc.
3. I just don't believe in Aubrey David at this level. Whenever he is by himself he looks like he could be chewed up by a speedy winger. Please prove me wrong. His position should be taken by Cyrus ALWAYS but we seem to be trying a ting and using speedy Cyrus sometimes as central defender to cover gaps in the team roster, often playing him there (where admittedly he can also function) because no Bateau, but that is wasting his real talent on the wing
4. The back four from R to L should be chosen from:
Marshall (Julius James, Seon Power) Bateau (Mitchell, 3rd player )
J. Hoyte (Gonzalez, Alvin Jones) Cyrus !!!!! (Jones, G. Hoyte, JLloyd Samuel)
Unless you have pure speed you should not be playing wing back. We need more back ups, one for central defense. I want to see 3 quality player choices for each position. C"mon Bravehart. Let's put an end to the David, Radanfah stuff. If you don't get this defense tuned up Alvin Corneal will be breathing down your back calling for your head to make room for his son again. I fully understand that you may be experimenting but these goals we conceding all of a sudden are scaring me coach. Please go easy.
