There’s a few glimpses of Jozy training with the full team here. I didn’t spot Marky or Piatti, which would suggest that Jozy is closer to returning than the other two.
Would be huge to be able to call on Jozy tomorrow and in the playoffs, even if it’s just for a 20 min sub appearance.
Vanney said Marky & Piatti & Morrow were out for this game.
NOTE: the official MLS injury list is based on journalist questions & has not been updated since Wednesday. If this league is going to take betting seriously as a partner, it needs to become less opaque on injuries.
FWIW

FWIW
In the play in round 7 plays 10 & 8 plays 9. If the Red Bulls want to NOT finish among that bottom group of 4, and thus have a few more days off until the first round proper, they have to win, hope NER loses, and make up a goal differential of 6. That's a tall order.
If NYRB lose, they are still guaranteed a home match in the play-in round.
Realistically, NYRB is going to either go full out for the jugular score as many as possible as quickly as possible
or
they are going to play to not lose players or lose too much momentum. And, they are going to be score board watching. If Philly is winning, NYRB might go hard for things. If NER is winning, NYRB might mentally shut it all down a bit.
I expect to see a heavy heavy press in the first 15 minutes. They are going to try to get after us big time, especially Bradley.
The best thing we could do here is score in the first 15 & have NER score early too - that way, NYRB has more work to do.
Oso starting is good news
No Bendik for the Union, instead inexperienced homegrown Matt Freese. Let’s hope the kid chokes.
Gil and Bou both in for Revs...that’s a plus.

Realistically, NER is playing for pride and that's about it. They can't get 5th. They are almost certainly (baring a meltdown defensively by them & us) going to be 6th & play the #3 team in a couple of weeks. There is nothing to be gained by going all out for a win here except momentum.
They have no pressure on them and can just go out there and have fun. That's why I fully expect Philly to get after them VERY quickly & try to score early. A 2 goal lead for Philly and that game is over.
Counter-intuitive - NER are the only team with a better away record then home record.

If this year has done one good thing, its us being able to get time to the kids.
Decent lineup. Wish we had a TAM winger though... (Gallardo does not count)
Thumbs down to the Endoh / DeLeon up top. We’ve tried it, they’ve underperformed. Give someone else a chance
Can hear Vic Rauter calling the Montreal game.
Anyone else hearing the DV United commentary as well?
Ah. See you are. That was weird.
Moving the ball quicker
Moving the ball quicker but Oso and MB both a bit imprecise
Poz is the hold up so far. Not making the quick pass.
Is it just me or has DeLeon regressed this year?
Endoh could have hit that.
