We dont play again until after Christmas, and we want to give him a game because theres no NYL game in between.Skipper Nick Montgomery (hamstring), however, has been cleared to face the Roar, while midfielder Mickael Tavares (ankle) could be ready to take on Melbourne Victory on December 28.Tavares is currently in Europe seeking treatment from a specialist in a bid to avoid surgery, which would have put him out for the long term, and is expeccted to be back in Gosford by the middle of next week.ddddddddddddThe feedback weve had is positive, and that hes improved, Okon said.But well probably really only know exactly once hes back, and how much training he can do and if hes ready to get back into first-team training.Tavares, Montgomery and Faty are crucial to Central Coasts season as they are among the few players in the current squad with experience.Montgomery has missed the Mariners last two matches and his young teammates have been overrun in midfield without him, succumbing to heavy defeats against Western Sydney (4-1) and Wellington (3-0).Central Coast conceded early goals in both of those matches and despite dominating possession, rarely looked threatening in attack - two things that will have to change against the rampant Roar, who are undefeated in their last five, and coming off a 4-0 thumping of Adelaide United.The only way we can do that is by showing more determination in key moments where you just need to defend, Okon said.
