    We've picked up the pace. Playing riskier passes today, expending more energy to make runs and create space. Love it.

    We rarely broke the final third until the last minute or two.

    Agreed, i’ll Go back on my earlier statement. Better now.

    Hamilton’s ability to make those runs and hold up the ball is a big difference

    Again we're being too slow getting our attack going - too predictable where the pass is going to go and they can just pick it off.

    This is tactically really ambitious from Vanney. Switching, fluid runs, selective pressing. Guys have bumped into each other 4 times now I think because they're not sure who should press. Starting to see some guys have their speed of thought challenged and get exposed a little. But I'd rather watch this than the usual stuff.

    Once again we lose a goal from the left. What are Auro and Zavaleta doing? Doesn’t Auro realize part of a wing backs job is to defend as well as get forward.

    They just announced on TSN Curtis will be in the studio at half time. Hopefully he is going to announce his resignation after his utter failure to address our problems in the transfer window. I wonder how he’s going to spin a mid table finish this season?

    Not having to listen to Caldwell drone on is such a fricken delight. So sick of his shtick of every foul call and yellow being soft, and just repeating everything "lyuke" says and adding "magnificent" to it.

    Disagree on Auro. You have to push your fullbacks in today’s game and he’s obviously going to be cut out when Delgado bulges the pass in midfield.

    Once the next phase of the play starts its 2v2 and whoever was on the right side didn’t close with enough speed and Mavinga lost his battle.

    Yeah, I've noticed that too. He looks tired.

    Nobody running, useless possession again, snails pacing, and Hamilton as a lone striker is pointless.

    This game continues to follow the same paterns of those in the past. We watch our best player get hacked down to the ground repeatedly and do nothing. This is easy: if the refs aren't going to control the game we hack down their best player too. Instead we meekly accept the state of the game and it hurts our effectiveness.

    Outside of that the lack of a wide threat and speed continue to hurt us. Justin Morrow might as well not go over the half line, he is never going to contribute anything in the final third in today's league. Delgado seems to have a unique skill to be behind the play both offensively and defensively, impressive.

    Take Marky off at half for Jozy/ayo and let Poz do his magic in the midfield. Its tough for him to have an impact on the game when we cant get the ball at his feet

    Who's going to go out there and hack a guy? Bradley? Our midfield can barely tackle as it is.

    Agreed, but to be fair he's also got less time to make decisions than his other counterparts. Teams are happy to give Delgado space because he'll just play a backwards pass once he receives the ball.

    There has to be some washout, hard-man somewhere who's willing to give a session in the parking lot after the game.

    i am sorry but someone said we would do better with our starters, it seems like the team is in a slump, lets hope the club changes something to get out of it or it may a painful few months until the next transfer window

    Ali "Incompetent" Curtis should of stayed off the broadcast, there is no reason he deserves to be in the club, and president just wanted to give his friend a job

    I don’t know what’s happened to Delgado, he’s a pale shadow of the player who looked so good in our championship year. Him and Osorio gave us great balance, and although Osorio didn’t start the season well, he has improved in recent weeks. Our final ball is awful. Too many blind passes into the centre rather than hold the ball until a player in the middle makes space for the shot.

    I question if we have the players anymore to play 3-5-2 successfully anymore. We might we be better going 4-4-2 with a solid defensive back four who know their task is only to defend. (And hopefully better than we’ve done this season so far) A diamond in midfield with Bradley at the base and Pozuelo at the peak, supporting two strikers, hopefully a fit Jozy and a new addition, but Akinola perhaps the best option at present.

    A lot of guff from Curtis. If a club doesn’t want to sella player (presumably González) move on to the next target. It’s clear to a blind man that defence is leaking like a sieve. It’s also worrying he doesn’t seem to see a forward as a priority, because without Altidore we’re toothless.

    I’d like to thank the fans that said it’s smart to not go all out against Atlanta , because in their imagination they think we have a team that win at will . Vanney learned nothing from last year . I’d like to see him one day with the team his concepts can win . It might not be in MLS . This right side is inept Delano is losing us games constantly . Ali Curtis and Manning must be making the Argos a powerhouse. Glad to see some fans not showing up for this . BTW can Morrow ever strike a ball anywhere but at the keeper ? He’s average at best with horrid defending .....Pozuelos a class act never discouraged. What a waste . When I see Bradley the last man to keeper I know we can’t win ......simply need more effort from mgmt to give Vanney some damn help . BS
