White takes too much time to get his shots off.

And White should have peeled off to the right there -- he basically made a run to nowhere.

cant believe the passion we're seeing so far out of the boys, holy shit where did this come from? why can't they play like this more often?

James17930
08-17-2010, 07:16 PM
Frei has to be healthy for Saturday.

yeah -- I don't think it'll be an issue. I have faith in Conway (and Kocic for that matter -- boy, we're deep at keeper, eh?) It's just interesting that Preki has never seemed to mind playing Frei twice a week before.

But maybe it's just that time of the season where Frei is a bit tired.

If Cruz Azul deserve any credit, it's that they're the only Mexican club I've seen whose kit doesn't look like NASCAR coveralls.

De Ro needs to remember thathe has options with Mista. I would prefer him to lay it off to Mista than try to shoot from too far out.

08-17-2010, 07:32 PM
De Ro needs to remember thathe has options with Mista. I would prefer him to lay it off to Mista than try to shoot from too far out.

But Mista has a tendency to pass first as well -- so someone's gotta do the shooting.

But yeah, Mista should be looking to shoot more.

defending from the front - leading to chances

James17930
08-17-2010, 07:41 PM
You know, clubs like this don't constantly pressure as much as MLS clubs do -- I think that's one reason we can play more controlled in these types of games -- we simply have that extra second that we don't often get in MLS.

James17930
08-17-2010, 07:42 PM

James17930
08-17-2010, 07:46 PM
Garcia is out for NY as well, time for Hscanovics to step up.

His problem was that he was always trying to do too much. If he settles down, pays attention to his area and doesn't try to push up too much when it's not advisable, he should be okay.

Saric is having his best game as a Red. Not just because of the goal but he's working hard. Same with Usanov.
We have to keep pressuring hard and make it difficult for Cruz to get out of their own end. If we give them any time on the ball they're cut us apart.

Oh and OBW has the touch of a rapist.

gtaguy
08-17-2010, 08:07 PM
seriously i would love too see a clean sheet tonight and tfc add another just so we can go to mexico with a good advantage. I just want to make sure that the away game is as far away from the hands of cruz azul that quite possibly we can take this away from them in spectacular fashion

One can dream
