A team of Melbourne City's caliber should never end up with 3 draws in a row, and it's time to get back on the winning track against FC MacArthur.
Top of the table Melbourne City faced Adelaide United last week and dramatically drew 3-3, fortunately they still have a 5-point lead over the next best team. But I imagine they are a bit worried about their recent performance and will need a win to boost their confidence if they want to stay ahead of the pack.
Their opponent FC MacArthur has only 1 point in their last 3 matches, and the team is going through a turbulent period after the departure of their leader Joki. I met with their new leader Stefan Stefanowski when I was a player, and I expect that he will want the team to organize their attack from the back and play open soccer.
Is there a player in FC MacArthur's squad who can play his style of soccer? Only time will tell, but last week his debut team drew 2-2 with Western Union and the result was positive, especially for 19-year-old striker Jettel Drew, who scored his first goal after more than two months.
But I think Stefan Stefanowski's biggest challenge against Melbourne City this year will be how to deploy and freeze the opposition's top scorers such as Jimmy McCarron, Felix Mafferty and Marco Di Leo, who are their danger men.
