Theyre still the same human beings - same bodies, same talent, same quality.Well go up there with the intention of suffocating them.It could also bring bad luck. Theyve never worn maroon.Adding another element of spice was Roar defender Jade Norths recent description of the Sky Blues perfect start to the season as lucky, particularly in conceding a competition-best only two goals in 2016-17.Rather than lucky, Arnold believes it was their opposition who were fortunate not have succumbed to heavier defeats.All Ill say is last week, we had 47 entries into Perth Glorys penalty box ... and we only scored four goals, Arnold said.Were nowhere near the finished product. Were still operating at about 60-65 per cent of where well end up. ' ' '
