    I was impressed early on, however teams are isolating and exposing him now. I would rather see JMR get a run of games at RB.

    JMR definitely shows the most defensive acumen, strange he’s not getting starts.

    I have a feeling his thigh is still tweaked somewhat which is why we're mostly seeing him in second half.

    That makes sense, he’s been quite reserved.

    We desperately need atleast a point here. If we can grind that out without a single DP, I think we should be celebrating.

    Speed of pressure. He's there to press them in danger areas when they first receive the ball, force turnovers.

    He probably looks at how they're likely to be used during the rest of the season and figures Petrasso is the late sub, because of his defensive qualities. SO he'll play high on the left more often than Jayden.

    As they need him to continue to learn, putting him in occasional other roles, like this one, lets him concentrate in a game environment on pressing, marking, tackling. Plus, San Jose is quick in the middle.
    Just a guess.


    EDIT: Seems they've switched now.

    Only 20 minutes, but Criscito's technical ability is above and beyond.

    Definitely wondering if he can get sold to Arsenal on paper to give the Rapids some GAM like Auston Trusty.

    Colorado would have to say some awfully sweet things to make it feel good, I imagine.

    He was going to be playing Lorenzo Insigne and now he's moving to Denver, where he's competing with guys for time the same as here, at a club with less ambition and resources.

    So much possession, no chances created. And that's what happens. Did MB just let him go there?

    Sorry, people.

    I was just thinking our defence looking good but a Mavinga brain fart could change all that.


    I wished that into existence.

    Help us MAK. We literally only have two midfielders on the roster and one is like 60.

    Is Ebobisse the most underrated player in modern MLS?

    Not sure what this means, but I'd say that's plenty of value already. BMO would be a graveyard otherwise.
