What he said was that the game, perhaps, didn't quite play out the way he might've drawn it up—that, statistically, we likely didn't win any categories, hence, from a soccer[-purist's] perspective,...

Fair enough, yeh.

We're all still very tender from those days; "careful what you wish for," indeed.

Not sure about giving Vanney another 5 years, else this is exactly where I'm at with Vanney & co. (very well summed up).

There'd be a lesson learned, for sure, as far as how the league punishes...

This is it, for me; agree with you both, but something feels… off.

Obviously without being absolutely certain, this seemed glaring to me; if we get Messi in, Vanney's not going to have him sit out and be eased in, to see how we do things, no matter his condition...

I feel like his decision to rest so many starters came down to a few reasons:

- third game in seven days
- injuries and load-management
- one or two players deserving of mins.
- Western...

Why he was there was clear—still told him to GTFO, though.

Thanks for sharing this.

Interesting to read they were all committed to being open with one another, but you imagine that is only to a certain extent, not forgetting their respective allegiances....
