What a coincidence, it's Italian heritage night on San Jose on Saturday
http://forums.bigsoccer.com/attachme...irt-jpg.82177/
Stupid work making us put in 3 hours on sunday morning... was supposed to be in SF right now and at this game sat night.
Here I am opening this thread to see how the Iron Maiden song relates to San Jose.Quote:

I also was thinking of the landscape around Avaya. Airport then mountains.

That's true too. They do have a nice view there.Quote:

Perfect night for Seba to start scoring again.
The stadium is quite similar shape as BMO. Dont get why they don't build closed stadiums. Much better acoustic.
In typical TFC fashion, ex TFC players Barrett, Amarikwa and Wynne scores for SJ as TFC loses 3-0
(trying for a reverse jinx on the former TFC player curse...) :D
Quakes fan here. Anyone attending in person? Text me and I'll buy you a beer at the long bar below the scoreboard, up close to where the visiting team always warms-up.
408-836-9850.
Are you a TFC fan as well?Quote:

Anyone watching in Huntsville?
Would love it if as many people as possible came to Joe's tomorrow!
Bust out some Seba's on Fire!! Hopefully he lives up to that!
Yeah I'll be at Joe's again.
I can vouch for that. Don gave us a couple of really good seats at the old stadium in 2010 and gave us free beer at the tailgate. The only other TFC fans at the tailgate were Chad Barrett's Mum and Stepfather. We won 3-1 that night and Chad scored. Don was dreaming of a new stadium back then! Don, you got your wish.Quote:

So 5-3-2 defending and 3-5-2 in the attack?Quote:

That midfield three has me worried though.
Game Night :scarf:
Dammit Don, I just moved away from SJ!Quote:

It will be interesting to see how the midfield performs tonight. I can't think of a game in which Chapman and Osorio have both started.
You have to hand it to Bacardi, their accuracy is low but they come up with more combinations of things than everyone on this board combined.
Back to the diamond we go.

I love the 3-5-2, I hope they revert back to it, although I have my doubts that it can work in MLS. I feel like it requires IQ above Vanney and MLSers, but I hope I'm eventually proven wrong. Its not really something you just decide to play midseason either (I know they tried it out once in May).
A four-back is probably safest for now.
Jozy on the bench.
I'd still like to see Giovinco actually at the top of the diamond
except he doesnt play defence, and defending with 3 man midfield is not good for TFCQuote:

I remember that, but our defensive infrastructure has totally changed and we've made upgrades in midfield to support.Quote:
