How is anyone going to save Perth Glory?

I'm sitting here at half time in what appears to be Glory's 7th loss in a row and I am wondering how they can get out of the mess they are in.
The answer is, they can't. It's not an easy thing for a team who can't pass a ball 5 metres to a teammate to win a game. The quality of play is terrible with passes being sprayed all over the place, people slipping over all the time and weak efforts on goal (when they do get them).
For a team with the likes of Mile Sterjovski and Robbie Fowler they should not have so few quality chances.
It's not hard to see why Glory has lost 6 and a half games to this point and until they start working as a team and getting the basics right they will continue to lose.
The commentator said during the half that Fowler wasn't getting enough deliver, I say that is untrue! When Howarth ran down the wing and cut the ball back for an unmarked Fowler, who you would think would bury such a chance, he scuffed the shot and the best chance of the half was lost.
There are so many problems the team have to deal with on the pitch and the only solution I can give is to get back to basics and start playing the way that won them the first 3 games this season, with good technique, pace and burying chances.
Anyway, the second half is about to start so let's see what happens next...
