Pre/In/Post-mortem thread

[Abou Sky]

Good afternoon from DC, supporters here are also hoping to see a win out of this 'battle of the basement dwellers'

I would love to see Nelsen just throw caution to the wind and go buck wild with a 4-3-3 and see what happens.

--------------Bendik
Ecks - Caldwell - Henry - Morgan
Rey - - - - - Hall----------Convey
Osorio - - - Braun - - - - - Brockie


Can't be worse...

[Dv23]

I beat you to the bunch by two minutes with my thread, but seeing as how you've stickied this one, I'll bring the discussion over here. If a mod could merge or something?

I think it's 2-1 us. Earnshaw and Urruti, with Silva slotting one in for DC.

[TFC07]

I hope Urruti and Earnshaw start together, but I highly doubt he's match fit to play full 90 mins.

So I have this line up:

-----------Bendik--------------
--Ecks----Caldwell----Henry------Morgan
Rey - - - - - Hall--Osorio--------Convey
------Earnshaw-------Brockie-----------

This is going to be Brockie last game with us. So hopefully we win for him.

[__wowza]

I think it's 2-1 us. Earnshaw and Urruti, with Silva slotting one in for DC.

i don't see this game ending without a silva assist/goal, it's expected at this point.

[BuSaPuNk]

Hope your having fun Abou!

Yeah I'm seeing Silva getting one tonight. Now if DeRo gets one too then we know the universe is against us.

[Detroit_TFC]

I'm going with a prediction of 2-1 TFC win but really, I have no idea. I don't have a sense of the mood in the squad right now.

[[NBF]]

Pfffft!

Bird shit falling from the sky, is the universe doing its thing.

Bird falls suffers a heat stroke, falls on your head and shits itself, thats the universe againts you.

Throwing your own produced shit in the air and standing under it waiting to see where it lands, well that's just the TFC way.

The current roster is a result of bad deal making, ignorance towards the fans, and a limited scope of the talent pool available. That you cannot absolutely deny, this team has no scouting options. Its complete utter ignorance. The only thing that has changed this year from last year is that you're not seeing a drunk asshole parading on the sidelines, but even then, that was a sort of entertainment. Fucking sad. This team is just pathetic.

my 2 cents

[flatpicker]

People are really fired up for this game!

[ginkster88]

People are really fired up for this game!


:D..

[Couchy81]

This is going to be Brockie last game with us. So hopefully we win for him.

hopefully he scores one for us and leaves on a high note

[khso11]

2-1 for TFC, Urruti for his first, Brockie's last goal before he leaves. Silva with a goal for DC.

[Richard]

4-0 DC. Silva and Dero with a brace.












Don't worry its a jinx

[Couchy81]

Well I am in Virginia right now and the D.C game isn't on TV. Redskins are playing. MLS has an uphill battle down here.

[flatpicker]

This stream seems to be working if anyone needs it.

[OgtheDim]

Convey...where free kicks go when they want to fly away and break the bonds of earth.

[flatpicker]

Wow... DeRo!

[Dkolish3]

Good goal

[OgtheDim]

Well that was goal of the week.

[Morlesio14]

trade lambe to chivas for 20 minutes of a l.a prostitute

[Couchy81]

Dero just scored an unbelievable goal. No surprise.

[Marc"2L"]

Surprise surprise

[OgtheDim]

We are soooo bad at free kicks. If I was Caldwell I'd be yelling at a few guys about wasting his energy.

[flatpicker]

Part of me thinks I should stop watch Premiere league games the same day as TFC games. It just makes the lack of quality painfully apparent.

[OgtheDim]

We are getting crosses in but nobody but the strikers is attacking the ball.

[Morlesio14]

the longball curse

[TFC07]

I turn TV on, and we're losing already. Where's Earnshaw? Wiedeman and Lambe are starting? WTF?!

Time to fire Nelsen. I don't care if he's 8th coach to leave our club or not, this is just awful management from coaching staff. We need an EXPERIENCE manager to run this team on-field. I don't care if foreign manager or not, we need someone who needs a thing or two about tactics.

[OgtheDim]

Hall loses the ball and then jumps up and down like he's upset that his little trick didn't work.

If you lose the ball, play the ball.

***

That seems to be Weideman's move.

[Couchy81]

worst finisher of the modern era

[flatpicker]

Forget this game.... I'm more excited to see which game-day thread ends up with the biggest post count!

Now that's entertainment!

[OgtheDim]

That chance was caused by Convey and Lambe pinching into the middle and not following players.

DO NONE OF THEM ACTUALLY WANT TO HUSTLE AT THE BALL?

[Ossington Mental Youth]

http://firstrownow.eu/watch/203161/1/watch-dc-united-vs-toronto-fc.html

Thanks, i appreciate it.

[[NBF]]

LOL@the best finisher in the world, having the two best shots. Osorio, taken out. LOL@Serious, maybe he ate some of that food at the EX.:drinking:

[Morlesio14]

russel for osorio?? i need to smoke more kush

[Morlesio14]

Thanks, i appreciate it.

no problem boss

[[NBF]]

russel for osorio?? i need to smoke more kush

4-1-4-1, I think, maybe Silva running too free infront of the back 4.... good sub but they should have known prior to the game starting they were going to get pressure from Silva and DeRosario. You cant play a 4-4-2.

[OgtheDim]

Osorio looks like he was about to puke.

So Morgan makes a good push and where the HECK was Brockie?

[Couchy81]

LOL Morgan finally makes a cross that a defender doesn't block and absolutely no one is there. Oh the irony.

[Morlesio14]

dear brockie, fuck u

[Marc"2L"]

Shot of Urruti in full regret contemplation mode.

[OgtheDim]

To be honest, apart from DeRo's wonder goal, DC hasn't looked all that threatening.

Wheras we have, for once, been getting crosses in.

[Morlesio14]

brockie cant finish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jloome]

Thanks, i appreciate it. Oss, long time no see man. wiziwig.tv has every feed on earth/

[OgtheDim]

brockie cant finish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I think he's one of those guys who can finish at a lower speed level where he can follow the game flow but not when the pace increases.

[Morlesio14]

why cant nelsen just play with a CAM???

[jloome]

I think he's one of those guys who can finish at a lower speed level where he can follow the game flow but not when the pace increases. he had 16 in 24 a-league games last year, on the worst team in theleague, a better rate than Del Piero. So you might have something there. Or he just hasn't hit a stride yet; players often do poorly when not playing to their strengths, and he seemd to play as a wide forward over there, cutting in and shooting. Good shot, not a great striker.

[pdubs]

he loves the flat 4-4-2 thats why

[Richard]

So which is the main thread, this is getting annoying.

[OgtheDim]

why cant nelsen just play with a CAM???

Cause we ain't got one.

[Marc"2L"]

Maybe one can be the optimist thread, the other jaded.

Leiweke has been quiet, did the DP thing take the wind out of his sails or something? Because I would really like to know where he thinks things are at, squad wise.

[jloome]

Wiedeman's the only decent player we had in the first half. Brockie's got a hurt foot. Why the fuck are we taking out Wiedeman instead of Brockie?

[Dkolish3]

A goal for us!!

[OgtheDim]

Well that looked just as awful as our defence was last season.

[Morlesio14]

good ol bobby convey

[Morlesio14]

Cause we ain't got one.

osorio when fit

[jazzy]

I turn TV on, and we're losing already. Where's Earnshaw? Wiedeman and Lambe are starting? WTF?!

Earnshaw is a 1 hit wonder......he's lost it....HE should go. and I'd like to keep a coach for at least 3 years thanx

[TFC07]

Me too if the coach is GOOD. Nelsen hasn't shown anything!

[Ossington Mental Youth]

It's tough. Same old, same old so far.

[AdamAM]

2 pages on a game thread..... wow

[Huyton]

Why wasn't Urruti playing?

[Auzzy]

2 pages on a game thread..... wow

Actually there were two different game threads, total 6 pages. Still not much. #GetUsedToIt

[Ossington Mental Youth]

It's tough. Same old, same old so far. too damn true. Oddly im still holding out to see what the current set can do for us

[jloome]

too damn true. Oddly im still holding out to see what the current set can do for us

Not much else we can do.

Anyone notice if O'Leary was there today?

[Abou Sky]

Oleary was there, my 9 year old son was yelling 'pressure the ball'

I think he may be the replacement we have been looking for.

Fuck...

[Ossington Mental Youth]

Not much else we can do.

Anyone notice if O'Leary was there today?
True true.
Yeah, there was a shot in second half and I saw him on the bench looking unhappy. Oddly second half was bettern the first
