Forrest and Dobson... they gotta give the OBW work rate bit a rest. I'd almost be fooled into thinking he was a decent player.

And don't you love when there is zero movement off the ball when any of our players have control of the ball? This game so far is probably one of the worst performances this year.

Pretty low-level play by both teams. Looks like they could play 900 minutes and nobody would score.

Actually, that could have been an exciting half, but with the awful pitch and seemingly sleepy crowd, it's hard to watch.

Fushida

Don't worry OBW, Craig Forrest appreciates your "hustle" ... that's right, you just need to "keep moving" and you'll get that goal.

You're joking about Mista right? He's been working his ass off... coming deep to get balls and trying to create something... hard to do anything when no one moves as you're trying to hold off 2 or 3 defenders. Especially when your other striker seems to be running into the other team more than into space.

twistedchinaman

Half.

In other games:
- Seattle gets ass handed back to them by NE, 3-1
- RSL still 1-0 up on Pink Cows.
- Colorado/Chivas scoreless.
- Krew leads DCU 1-0; DCU apparently about to break most times being shut out in 1 season (even surpassing our '07 record)

You might be right but I've noticed him standing still when we have posession more than a few times + coughing up the ball for that Cunningham attempt was some weak stuff.

Probably playing somewhere between your opinion and mine:)

+1. Mista just needs someone to get him the ball near the top of the box. Getting him it at half ain't gonna help much.

Exactly; he was signed to be a goal poach. EVERY SINGLE YT vid I've watched of Mista's goals are of incredibly great (and sometimes laughably easy) finishes. The man needs service to the box, and he will work wonders. If he doesn't get that, he's not doing much.

You don't understand how it works. According to FIFA rules, when it's a FIFA sanctioned date, Preki has no choice but to release any players the CMNT wants, even if it's 11 players.

Maybe it's just because I'm in a bad mood today (and I am), but this is positively dreadful to watch.

I'd like to think it would be better viewing if we weren't missing Maicon, Barrett, DeRo, JDG, and Nana - basically all of our best players - but sadly we can't even be sure.

There's so little skill out there in white shirts right now. Shitty passes flying every which way, nearly free headers that are missing by several feet. Bleh.

I wouldn't even mind it if it was for a specific purpose, like to let guys reposition themselves, or to get some shape back in our formation... but he literally just does it because he's the "open guy".

There's no coherence to their movement.

Without DeRo and Barrett we have no one stretching them at all, no one making the clever move into space with the ball, no one moving close to support of the ball.

It's like watching bad USL. Eh, fuck. Terrible game.

Lets look at that last run of play.

Garcia gets ball, looks up, passes to Peterson.
