This is where I think DCU is dangerous. They pretty much know that their season is over barring a miracle. They are playing for respect and honor and if they can't get that then they will try to hack the opposition to victory.

Keystone FC

Our backline is looking strong and our ball control is 100% better than last year and the first two games of the season.

I do think we let them back in the game towards the end. They were winning balls and getting more chances on goal...albeit long shots but chances non the less.
We need to come out like we did at the beginning and keep it up. Dichio's goal, as great as it was, was a fluke and DCU know it. They also know they beat us 4-1 earlier this season and still are in this game if they get their heads on strait.

RealG-TFC
05-21-2008, 07:34 PM

They're not just shit, I think they are the worst that I've ever heard in my entire life. I've heard more insightfull commentary on cable-access highschool broadcasts. Worst of all they just won't shut up. They talk non stop. The first half was 45 minutes of constant inane chatter. Comment when it's needed, and when it's not just shut up.

I think if Dichio didn't get that earlier goal our play would have been different. I think we would have pressed more and taken more chances. It was what DCU 15 shots to our 6. To me that says we relied more on our defense, which is not looking too bad by the way, to get us through. We can't do that all the time even with a team like DCU (who are still a very dangerous team IMO).
We need to have an front line that will take advantage slow play and stun the opposition defense.

10 thinks I think I think....
1) Quality substitutions from Carver today at exactly the right time.
2) If we play as defensive as we did tonight (and in the last 5 games for that matter) on the road, we'll have very limited success
3) Loved Dichio's grit tonight. I know he's not the ideal man to have up front, but I'll always love having him in the squad.
4) Fred. Miss of the season?
5) If you had of told me a month ago that Marco Velez would hold off Olivier Tebily and Julius James for a starting centre-half spot, I probably would have laughed at you.
6) If toronto gets a result at DC, Sohen is toast
7) Smith did enough to earn a starting spot in place of Ricketts on Saturday
8) When was the last time Sutton made a mistake?
9) 10 minutes into the match, I was worried no one was going to show up to the match (particulary in the east stands)....but you guys did well tonight in shitty conditions.
10) We want Ameobi

Maybe because he wasn't doing anything out there.

It was a good move by Carver.

Smith looked better. Shit he is making 17k and waht is Ricketts making? I think Smith should be starting.

Good win tonite, Especially in that crappy rain. The defence was solid and when needed Sutton came through. With the exception of Edu are midfield played great. My player of the game is split between Danny Dichio, and Marvel Wynne. I would like to see Smith get more playing time . But let Carver decide that.
