    Oh my goodness that's bullshit. He went over the keeper, never touched the ball, never had possession.

    Unbelievable.

    For the striker to be impeded, he has to touch the ball or have a clear path to it. Here, Gavran bobbles it, then Swiderski trips over him.

    It's not a penalty.

    And.... that didn't look like handball, either. It certainly wasn't a block or trip, their player just went over.

    The officiating in this league may actually be getting worse.

    Mabike is 6'7 and just watches that ball come back in, less than a foot over his head, without trying to clear it.

    He's a terrible defender. He's not good enough for MLS.

    He is awful in the air considering his height.

    His only year in Miami, he was in the bottom 17% of the league in headers won.

    Has Bernie touched the ball more than once?

    Mbongue has to know he should break to goal as soon as the shot goes off, in case of a rebound. But he's late, so the chance is lost.

    Half the purpose of having guys shoot from outside the box is to clean up after, get those poacher and junk goals. We rarely have done that this season.

    On the downside, we're losing again. On the upside, Charlotte are only one step of god-awful above us. Should have four by now.

    Well, there you go. No aggression in our defending, nobody closing or blocking running lanes.

    EDIT: Inches lucky there.

    It's really fucking woeful. They're just utterly beaten. Nobody challenges or presses quickly (I mean, half our team is just too slow for this fucking league, let's be honest), they ball watch, they don't shoulder barge or fight for close position.

    Gavran giving us a moment of hope.

    That doesn't look like a penalty to me. I mean, our player had his back to one of their players who trips nowhere near the ball over our player's ankle.

    Luka makes such a big safe and you go and do that in the box, what crap.

    Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

    See, on that replay it looks like Coello didn't even touch him. They bumped asses, maybe.

    Either way, the other issue is that there's just no adjustment. They press us high, but we keep trying to build from the back, instead of playing the high switch and using space on the wings.

    I wonder if Herdman told Dunfield "Don't tell them anything different. Don't tell them this is a tryout for next year or anything, just keep being nice. I want to see who can't be arsed."

    Am I being a homer here, guys, or were both of those penalties incredibly fucking soft?

    Okay, I see it there. Coello put a hand on his back. I don't think it was a genuine push but once he did that he was toast.

    I know. So fucking soft. They have no bite, no speed, no desire to win the ball. They mark off, ALL THE TIME. They never challenge. it's like they're worried they'll catch fucking COVID or something.

    Yeah, I'll probably last until about minute 70. I mean, I was going to qualify that with "unless they come our fighting and..." and then I realized how ridiculous that was.

    No they were soft. Pretty puzzling

    But we are terrible. I’m not sure I can judge players when they don’t give a shit and do none of the basics. Which they must be able to do. It’s all rotten.

    It’s ending soon

    Terry just checks players passports when choosing his lineups and subs.

    Are they Canadian? Yes!

    Are they good? Who cares!
