Positives and negatives to this starting XI. I like the option of having Laryea come in for the final 30 minutes against a poor defence. Will be interesting to see how Priso does.

With better execution of simple things and a bit of urgency the team we started should have been able to easily beat that Timbers side.
Not sure if I'd want Westburg's first start to be in a challenging spot like Seattle. After this match there are some easier opponents coming up. Bono does need to show some improvement though.

Good call. Well I think we know what our default formation is moving forward.
Yeah I'd like to see the back 4 stay with DeLeon back there for Auro. Maybe Chapman at RM? He's done enough to warrant more playing time.
As much as people dislike Bono at least we don't have Daniel Vega. LAFC up 1-0 with a soft one against SJ.
Glad to see this did get called, VAR or not. I'm finding the pulling and grabbing is consistently getting worse. Any blatant tug like that needs to be called.
I think this game will be a good indicator of how Auro is coming along as a defender. DeLeon can give him good support if he's out on the wing.
Only one team from the Eastern Conference (Columbus), picked up 3 points this weekend.
A lot of talent on that roster. Still hurts to think about them not being in the WC this year.
I'm okay with this line-up.
I don't remember - what contributed to Portland's flop in 2016? I know they didn't go far in the CCL.
I think the biggest growth this team accomplished was from 2015 - 2016. Yes a big part of that was the arrival of Moor and others but Vanney figured out how to best use the talent available. He...
Still no defensive reinforcements. Hopefully Mavinga or Zavaleta are at least part of the 18 on the weekend. SEA's line-up looks really weak.
Seattle has only scored five times this season. Great time to be missing some defenders.
I'm fine with the same line-up that went against Chicago. 6 days without traveling or playing in games will be huge for a lot of those players. When we played Philly last August I thought it was one...
I think we'll still be a little shaky for the next little while due to the injuries and CCL but late in the season once defenders get back into the line-up we'll be back to our old selves. We're so...
Aside from his flub on the goal I thought Moor was one of the stronger players tonight. Read the game really well and knew when to snuff out plays. VdW surprised me as a CB too.
Morgan starting, no Morrow on the bench.
You and me both!
Why are so many people finding this surprising? Take any run of the mill MLS youngster with a bit of potential, have him train with superior players every week, provide a great coach with a clear...
Playing a man up always makes life easier :p
Yeah if there was a good time to have a throw away game that was it. Colorado pressing more aggressively was probably a good reminder that our off the ball movement still needs to be sharper.
I...
I'm hoping he plays with the same approach more often this season. He was dropping deep more often to combine with the midfield which gave him more success on the ball. I think he's less effective...
