Vancouver Whitecaps midfielder Mauro Rosales has stated that his team are looking to balance attacking football with the ability to pick up results as well. Vancouver have been one of the best teams to watch in the MLS under the regime of Carl Robinson.

However, this beautiful football has not exactly brought results to the team, as they have not been unable to convert a chances more often than not. The poor efficiency in terms of finishing has left the team still searching for a position as the table leaders. Ahead of the game against Sporting Kansas City,Rosales says that the team will now look to be more efficient.

There has to be a huge turnaround in terms of home form in order for Vancouver to sustain their position in the final series. The team has managed only two wins over the last four matches. It has been a story of the campaign. However, Robinson has seen his team perform well in away matches, although they only recently suffered a 2-1 defeat against Colorado Rapids. Repeating the away form in front of their own supporters will be the key for Vancouver now. There are suggestions that Robinson may adopt a different tactics for the game against Sporting Kansas City.

“It shouldn’t [be like that]. We should approach every game like we did on the road. How we played was fantastic against very good teams. Obviously we want to perform the same way.We’re trying to be focused as we should. We’ll try to entertain as well, but we need to be smart and try to put ourselves in a good position. Trying to get the three points is the main point,” said the midfielder. “I think we always try and entertain whether we’re home or away,” responded coach Robinson.
