That isn't as much true as it used to be - many Directors of Football / Presidents are now from overseas.

Don't Know Why

*******

Have at It People

Coello passing to where he expects players to be and then complaining they were not there is a weird move for a guy with this many years in this league now.

Oso's DP status is a roster maneuver that created more cap space - other teams do this as well with higher end allocation level players.

(I'm also not going to judge Oso on the Long conversation...

Cap league means sometimes that flexibility is not there - especially if you have some cruddy contracts to deal with.

We are not the only team that has run into this in the past

DCU with Rooney...

Can people who think Oso was crap tonight explain what they saw to come to that opinion?

There 3rd goal was a classic "get to the post no matter what" goal - we haven't had a guy do that since Jozy in 2017.

Gomis stops a lot of crosses but he's not quick enough without a defensive minded LWB.

The foul on Bernadeschi before that was equally uncalled - some of these guys from MLS 2012-2015 have not moved forward with their approach.

Chapman is such as shit ref -

Reading between the lines of Herdman's pressers, Coello is not the preferred option in the midfield. He basically starts when we have nobody else but I would be very surprised if we are not going in...

Coello...I...I just can't with this guy on turf anymore.

Yes on Johnson
&
Ball falls out of the sky and NONE of 6 guys in the area goes for the ball.

That was...annoying.

Coello with 4 guys charging manages to pick out their guy...

3-4-3 with Berna as a WB

Lloyd Sam drives me to mute

Coello & turf passing....

Wait...is that a 4-4-2?

Herdman in today's presser relieved a few of my concerns...still wondering about his ability to put together a midfield. But he was spot on about so many things in that presser.

Part of me is thinking they are waiting for Richie to be behind Fede to see if that will still work.

From the sounds of that presser today, they have a player they would get for the #9 internationally IF they had the cap space. And they are NOT happy with the current crop - Herdman talked about...

About this - see the presser today - around minute 12. He indicated a move could still happen but might require a sell off first.

FWIW

Herdman presser today

Really interesting discussion of

a) will have to change style from being high intensity when goes to 2 games a week

b) college Spicer was at had no real...

Wait, Spicer had a broken toe when he was drafted...is this the same injury?

Like, did we actually have a guy come back to quickly from a broken toe?!?!


Edit - says its a toe sprain - same toe

Not enough data to go on.

The only thing I keep hearing, from day one of Hernandez, is all work is now being done based on analytics including radial graphs & zonal charts. He has instituted...

The south end sells corporate tickets - we are part of the entertainment package.
