As someone who's been a long time EPL/Arsenal fan and new to the MLS, I hope I'm not being overly critical here...
I've watched all three games and I don't see any ability whatsoever to retain the ball. They can't maintain the ball even just going cross field, is that normal for MLS teams? Seems like a recipe for disaster and it's not just based off of last nights game.
Bradley is so clearly the best player on this team, but it's already getting annoying watching him win back the ball only to watch his teammates lose it or just play it up field with the HOPE of it reaching somebody. (Bradley himself does this as well, but I assume it's because he's picked up on this also)
Maybe it's the quality of the pitch, but my early MLS experience has been a lot of "Why the heck can't they string 5+ passes together?"
EDIT: Also, the refs.. My god. Completely incompetent.
