Gonna have to see how Morgan does with Vanzeir up top.  That may be the long term answer.  If that's the case, go DP next to Forsberg instead.


#1444537 Is Vanzeir a bust?

Posted by Komba on 23 March 2024 - 03:15 PM

Chemistry is everything so if he has good chemistry with Morgan than he's worth gold.

Super impressed with him today on that 4th goal.  Passed up a good opportunity to get the guaranteed goal.

Hopefully he figures out the finishing again

Morgan is the player of the game for sure but Vanzeir deserves a ton of freaking credit here.

Vanzeir playing well outside of the finishing... He's gotta finish one of those two plays.

Gengar finding his way.  Doesn't look comfortable yet defensively and that position has to work hard defensively.  Just a bit tentative.

Dylan Nealis good on that pass which led to the goal but I think him and Duncan have been bad defensively.  

I love Amaya and his work, but outside of one game a year, he doesn't have much offensive sense.  He finds himself in good situations and it rarely works out positively.  

Lewis Morgan zero issue in the rain.  Almost like he's made for it.  By far our best finisher tho.

We need a backup left back because it's always bad with Duncan on the left side.

Wonder if the person can figure out Ngoma. Thats the biggest challenge.

Best player this team has ever had.  He brought us to our first trophy.

We can't beat that team.  Only hope is to have someone else knock them out in the playoffs.  They are built to beat our style. Duncan was rough.  Hes extremely fast but processes so slowly.  No instincts either.

They outclass us.  We can't beat this team.

Doyle isn't making stuff up I don't think when you consider that we traded for an international spot. We aren't doing that for no reason.  

And good that Gengar is here reasonably quick by our standards.  Should already be in shape too. I'm still a fan of taking it slow tho

Morgan better be okay because he changes the team.

Good game.  Worried about Vanzeir but it's not over with him. Doesn't have high upside though.

Eile is a star.  Especially on the ball.

Still kills me that Manoel missed that chance...

Forwards are the issue until the ball starts going in.  With this track record, there are no points or benefit of the doubt for close calls. These guys have to score because otherwise, it's just the same thing we've seen for the last several years.

 

Manoel still has me pessimistic. He looks a touch quicker than last year and that's good, but still seems a bit stiff in his movements and ultimately couldn't finish or create chances.

I'm leaning towards disappointment.  Largely the same group of guys but a new coach and he seems to want them playing out of the back more.  We don't really have good enough passers for that so I'm not optimistic. Just have to hope the defense keeps them at zero or 1 goal.. then hope Forsberg can create a chance


#1442775 Season Predictions

Posted by Komba on 18 February 2024 - 07:16 PM

A lot of this year will be based on how good the coach is.  We are slightly better on paper from last year but that's around 5th or 6th. If the coach is good then we can max out around 3rd.  

Zero chance at the Cup tho. Need a great forward for that.

Yep, if we are gonna have Forsberg at his age be the major part of this team, you must give him another guy who's ready now.
