Bradley = clarkson
The Revs lost 8 in a row and are still in the Playoff picture.
The sky isn't falling yet people.
yes they are now tied with us...shows how well we been doing...2 losses against the 2 teams ahead of us,way to get up for the big game boys.
I'm not even going to bother arguing. It seems like a significant amount of people here can only remember the most recent game and that any previous form should not be held to judge the talent of the coach. Am I often befuddled by Nelsen's choices? yeah. But he's got as playing more as a team than I can remember in our history and we are obviously better than many teams in this league. I don't belive in judging a coach midseason, especially when we're not in a particularly bad state at all. If we don't make the playoff then sure, there's no excuse. But There's no reason we can't turn this mini-slump around. The incessant need for immediate gratification by some here is a little off-putting. every team goes through slumps, I said that when we'd lost three straight to put us at 3-4-0 and everyone said that that wasn't true and that it was the end of days and we were doomed to yet again rot at the bottom of the table. I said that, when we do come of of this slump, we'll have another one later in the season, or maybe two, because EVERY SINGLE TEAM in this league goes through rough patches during the season, that is most definitely including the good ones.
But as usual, whoa is me at TFC.

I missed the game but what the hell?
In a single sentence, what did Nelly do that was different from the last time everybody wanted him gone? I have some questions still but I'm curious to what it is about this game.
Also, writing on the wall for Ol'Gil? Same thing, what changed? Because I'm pretty sure everybody on here was fully behind him now.
People upset after a terrible loss, only thing to do is move onto Saturday and hope we see a better effort. Team selection could be criticized but if Oduro/Moore could have finished opportunities or Defoe had gotten the PK call team selection would not have been brought up.
DC with one DP and 1/3 of our budget cleaned our clock tonight..they had a huge roster turnover like us but they seem to be gelling..its coaching...

Just terrible finishing tonight. That non call on the clear Defoe penalty changed the game.
Doesn't excuse Orr from being completely clueless in the back, jackson for being two steps slower then the entire team in terms of passing, Bradley being non existent tonight.
Hopefully it's just one of those games and we completely turn it around Saturday against Montreal.
If we don't, were in trouble.

Have to agree... DCU isn't this good, LA aren't that bad.... and parrity in this league means that there are a lot of ebb and flows.
New England can attest to this as can every other team in this league.
We are on course, this seems like a slump and run of bad luck. We owned KC first half, and should have had a few more goals in that game and vs DCU today 3-0 isn't fair considering the play on the field.
Feels like the team is trying too hard to gel and making things more difficult than necessary.
The sky is not falling, this team will gel.

Just watched the highlights-
this season was supposed to be different, and it is.
Its just not the extant of difference some of us were hoping for. I fall into that group of hoping for more. I suspect some very influential team officials do as well.
I'm pretty sure we can agree anything less than 3 points against Montreal will be reason for shelter against a falling sky.
I know I will be.

I understand all the rationale in the world to not panic and I actually support Nelson, think he is a reasonable coach,I get the players are mixed in this league, however this product to watch and sell commercially sucks. That will be the real cost of all of this in the end.
A few years ago the defence was the big problem area.It seems that people do not talk about it as mutch.I still think that is our major problem even with the guys who did not play tonite.We make poor decisions,give up needless fouls and our distribution out of the back is poor.With a pay roll like we have we are a 500 team that has given up more goals then we have scored.I think this is best team TFC has fielded but it does not play well even when everyone is healthy.How many times have they shot themselves in the foot.It will be interesting if this team does not make the play-offs.They haven`t shown me that they want to
And for all of you who say Nelsen never criticises his players performances, go see his comments tonight. He knows when to call out his players and when to tell them to keep their heads high. He's not there just throwing out excuses willy-nilly.
Missed the game tonight. Were we as bad as the score indicates?
This is the first time we've been blown out all season as far as I can recall.
