    You make it sound like Insigne is important to the squad and does anything. Him out is probably a bonus at this point. Played better before he came back. See if that continues.

    I just can't believe we've fallen to last in the East.

    Absolutely brutal.

    Kobe in not a bad defender...


    Their press is good - not being gotten through much.

    He hasn't been great or even good at all I agree, but tbh he's been the better of the DPs since he's been back

    On a goals and assists basis? Even I will not argue against such an assertion.

    We need to push our backline up and challenge them with the offside trap; they're just way too deep to transition the ball most of the time.

    I only have one extremely important comment to make so far: the Austin manager has a very long chin.

    We're just brutal upfront. Completely lost. Zero threat.

    When was the last time we caught a break and the opposition got a red card?

    Halfway through the first half and it feels like we're playing for the tie

    Servania & MAK trying to go back to find space just keep running into their press.

    Uninspiring football so far. No cohesion. No improvement. Players look like they have no drive. High percentage of incomplete passes.

    A lot of heavy touches by Bernie tonight. I realize he has no support ….still need more.

    That was was certainly a half of football. Our scoreless streak looks likely to continue. Let's just hope for the 0-0 draw at this rate.

    Yeh, he's trying to do too much with his first touch.

    As has been the problem for most of the season, they are trying to be too elaborate.

    Hedges though - man the guy just has a zone around him that nobody is going to beat.

    Well that was total shit.

    Kaye.... man I'm always defending the guy, but that was some woeful shit. He's supposedly directing traffic and all he can keep doing is pointing back at the defense. The wingbacks have started ignoring him. He also coughed it three times by my count.

    Servania, awful. Bad pass, bad pass, no movement after the pass so he's not in the right spot.

    Sapong, awful. Can't hold a ball up if you can't get to it.

    Defensively, we've usually got eight men in our half, and we wonder why we can't transition.

    It's just terrible. Most of the rest were okay individually but with three playing so badly, we're basically hosed. He has to push the back line up.

    The 3-4-3 that is really a 4-3-3 isn't really working - they did switch Richie & Fede about 35 in & dropped Servania back a bit. But MAK is getting overrun.

    having a hard time understanding why we can dink around with the ball and move it in the middle of the park, but we absolutely just seem to get a form of writers block in the final 3rd. Apart from richie, how in all that space up front can their be minimal runs made. I mean we saw servania literally do in the 90th the other game in a near post run that helped us save a point... can we not just have that... all the time? lol
