love that interview on tfctv


"You've got a big game against Colorado, do you think ahead to Wednesday a little bit, in terms of who you put on the pitch?" "No" "No eh?" "No" "No? not one bit?" "No" Not think of resting certain players for Wednesday?" "No" .

But you can draw some conclusions from his behavior so far this season and his consistent message of “I treat every game the same” — the Reds dressed a full-strength lineup in the second leg of the NCC semifinal round despite leading the tie by three goals.


and alan gordon hasn't played since. that was worth it.

I can't believe how many people are calling for a full B squad for this game. With fixture conjestion you certainly need to rotate the squad, but you don't put out a full B squad for a match that matters.

To be fair, I think Winter is just playing his cards close to his chest.

He's gotten a bit wise to the media and doesn't like to give them too much, at times. Like with the locker room issue, I think that this is just him drawing a line in the sand: generally speaking, no questions about games beyond the next one coming

Winter has proven that he'll rotate the squad, when it makes sense to do so (mindful of upcoming games vs. players' fitness).. which is why I'm not too worried about his selection.

Your avatar reminds me of that great shot with Mohammed Ali standing over Sonny Liston (just shy of 46 years ago, to the day).
