    I don’t agree. Why didn’t healthy Osorio, Moor, VDM, or Seba suit up? Are you telling me that in a nil nil tie at the half, carrying possession, and clearly the better team, he couldn’t have subbed them in? Saving his regulars time after time, has been disasterous this season. Bradley plays injured all the time, you hever see him taking a mental health day.

    VDM had a knock, so did Moor to my understanding. Seba tweaked something on the field last Saturday.

    No idea about Osorio, but if the price of a new contract is missing one game, so be it.

    The only one on that list one could question is Osorio. All the rest have injuries, or just came back from injuries (Vanney mentioned the latter is why he kept Moor out).

    They all have nagging injuries that might have worsened and then would be lost for the stretch run. I don’t think the roster for Portland is a fair criticism of Vanney. I do think he should have made his subs sooner, and arguably different ones: Zavaleta and Hamilton on for me at 55 minutes

    We should play a predict the lineup game on here you win if you get 80% of the lineup right... I am always confused with our Medical team guys come back only to get injured again seemingly "healthy" guys don't play tonight I hope Morrow Plays... Mavinga makes a huge difference as does Drew but does anyone want to see a front 3 with Altidore Janson and Seba Is it too much to ask to see that for at least one game the build up play would be excellent. As for tonight the usual 5 starters out.. What currently is the status on those 3?

    Wouldn't this be amazing:

    Bono
    Hagglund--Moor--Mavinga
    VDW--Vazquez--Bradley--Osorio--Morrow
    Giovinco--Altidore

    Interesting perspective on our injury problems could be that coaching staff is neglectful of med team advice so guys are said to be 'healthy' when they really aren't

    Or guys, desperate to help are insisting they're ok and the coaches don't stop them. Or just random chance. We don't really know.

    Lineup is out.

    Irwin, VDW, Morrow, Zavaleta, Moor, Bradley, Oso, Delgado, Vazquez, Seba & Jozy. 4-4-2.

    I'd feel a lot better with Mavinga back there instead of Zavaleta but still a very strong starting XI.

    Okay i’ve not seen a lot of direct confirmable evidence of our physio staff blowing it but today was pretty clear. How did Vasquez pass a fitness test? He was barely moving from the moment he stepped on the field.

    Seriously, it has gotten well beyond ridiculous with the injuries this season.
    The medical staff OR the technical staff (if not respecting medical staff's indications) needs to get full responsability and fired in the offseason.

    I don’t think we’ve been that bad. Fluke goal and a bit mentally fragile after that.

    Offensively everything looks disjointed but they are putting in the effort.
