Painfully winless, but not detered.

I am fully aware that every game that passes without 3 points brings out more doubt and questions about methods and philosophies.  That's OK, but it's not OK to panic and implement knee-jerk reactions.

I am as far away from panicking as you can get.

We film and review every game.  We keep our stats from a variety of areas and every game has been as evenly matched as can be.  And the way the league has been playing out, everybody is beating everybody and we seem to be the lonely dudes not getting the results.

Our formation is working for us and generating chances.  The formation also makes it easier for the team to be consistent when making changes and also dressing different players every game.

Every session we fix little things from the previous game and we show improvement the next time we take the field.  The guys have been great learners in-between matches and that makes our work a little easier.

The above process is my favourite part of coaching.   I take what the coaches see in the game, listen to players' feedback, watch the video with my stats page and decide where to go from there.  The coaches know their stuff and their information is invaluable.  The players feedback is very important because they are living the reality of our plans.  The video is cold, blunt and not phased by the tension or emotion of the game.

This week we will be working on our organization in the final third, and play in the penalty area.  Our goal output has been low so we'll put as many balls as possible in the net during the week.

The main thing is that we do not do anything drastic or panic.  We're not so out of touch with the league that we have to overhaul anything.

Our goal of a consistent philosophy and system is coming together and the guys coming back should be able to step in and carry it forward.  Everybody seems to understand how it works and what everybody's job is.

We'll what the last 3 season games brings us.
