Brisbane Roar mentor Ross Aloisi is doing his best to avoid the emotion attached to Friday night’s coaching duel with his embattled brother John but admits to feeling “uncomfortable” about his younger sibling’s plight at Western United.
The fortunes of the Aloisi brothers could hardly be any more stark ahead of their A-League battle at AAMI Park.
In his first season as an A-League head coach, Ross is flying at the Roar, who are only one point behind competition leaders Macarthur FC and playing an attractive brand of football that has endeared Aloisi to his squad.
However, while Ross and the Roar are full of confidence, John and United are searching for answers and struggling at the bottom of the ladder after six successive losses.
“My brother’s my best friend, so it’s uncomfortable when I see him not doing as well as what he should be doing,” Ross said.
“I spoke to him earlier in the week, not about football, just to see how he was going, like we normally do.
