Would have to disagree there mate. Seemed pretty straight up 4 at the back and Ralston did come on to replace JSP in a like for like type swap.

Might be trying him out now that AJ needs surgery. I’d personally rather see Donovan get game time

100%. Has 6 years on Ralston and looks quicker and more accomplished on the ball already.

I’m not sure what Ralston is meant to be good at. The branding of him as a hardy player is miles off I think. Doesn’t have good technique when tackling and stands off far too much.

True but thought he got hung out to dry by Nygren in front of him that day. Constantly had two running at him.

He’s had years of being cut some slack. Shows him the byline first time when it’s what he wants and then lets him inside second goal. He was miles away all night. As he was on Sunday.

Exactly.

Did I suggest he should be starting? You’ve missed the point Vinny.

Why sign him with zero intention of playing him. He was starting every game in the J League - a league probably equal to or better than ours. Now he’s starting in the B team with 17/18 year olds.

Haha fair point Paul but I think you know what I mean.

I’ll get back to you when we inevitably get a bad handball decision against us and see what you think.

You’re tripping Paul, it meets none of the criteria for a penalty. Glad we got it though.

It’s fair to say I’ve seen it already mate.

I’ll take it but whatever way you cut it, that shouldn’t be a penalty. I’d be raging if it was given against us.
