Atrocious game from him. Almost gave up another one earlier with all the lazy passes back to the keeper.

I was going to say earlier that LB is a weakness for this team. Mora hasn’t impressed at all and it’s clear at this point that Fuchs cannot play LB in a back four. He can play inside or LCB in a 3-5-2 or a similar formation with WB’s but he simply can’t keep up with the pace of wingers when he’s isolated as a LB.

Atlanta fan – I attended the game. Actually entered the Benz with with CFC fans, who were out in surprising force and lively throughout (drums, banners, chants, etc.).

Kahlina put in a MOTM performance – fantastic showing. Entire stadium was buzzing after a few of those saves.  Fuchs is obviously (still) a classy player, but he doesn't have the pace to play out wide in the MLS anymore.

Good match, we’ll see you again soon!

I am super excited for this team. A year ago I would never have been watching MLS and now I have a team to route for! Ben Bender is going to be a fantastic player for us until he gets shipped off to Europe. I am excited to see his growth. I was super impressed as a rookie he was doing corners on both sides. I have no expectations from this team this year and hell probably next year but they looked worlds better in the 2nd half than the 1st. This team will grow and when we get more speed on the wings and more consistent play in the middle we are going to be fun to watch!

There’s some talent there.

We have two roster slots open heading into the summer transfer window which is the big window for European transfers.

It will be interesting to see what this team looks like in mid July.

If they can find a better LB than Fuchs and maybe move into a CB role, then I think that would solidify the back. As it was mentioned, he got exposed as the game wore on. The team is not far off

Looks like a 4-4-2 tonight, maybe a diamond with the four in the midfield.

GK - Kahlina - (Marks)

LB - Fuchs - (Armour/Mora)

LCB - Makoun

RCB - Corujo - (Walkes)

RB - Lindsey - (Afful)

CDM - Alcivar - (Jones)

CM - Franco - (Ortiz)

CM - Bronico - (Ruiz)

ACM - Bender (I list him as an ACM but I think he’ll play a false 9 today)

LS - Rios

RS - Swiderski - (Gaines)

Potential subs are behind the starters.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
