Prodigians firing blanks

Prodigy fans in despair

After a whooping 15 goals scored during the first 2 matches, the firepower has dried up just like the weather these days as Prodigy hit blanks in 2 demoralising losses to Barclay Capital FC and Simei United respectively. First they were dumped out of the cup and now their promotion hopes are dealt a severe blow as their first position in the league is relinquished following a lacklustre performance yeh again against a talented Simei United team.

During these difficult times, manager Ken admits that the team has to stick together to grind out results and stick to basics. He said: "We seem to lose our confidence going forward and we are not playing together as a unit. Our final ball into the box is lacking and hence, our strikers are not scoring. We need to play it simple and move around more. I noticed during a freekick, our players are not making runs and standing static on the field. We need to make more off the ball runs in future. " Manager Mentor Chua adds: "We were outclassed and we lack the passion and hunger to win as Simei United and I noticed some players were just going through the motions in the first half. We need to find back the passion to win games starting next week against Olympique if we want to challange for the title. "

Following the defeat, Singaporepools has now increased the odds of Team Prodigy winning the division 7 title and they are now 2nd favourite behind Simei United. The payout has increased from 1.80 to 2.50 now.
