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.

    • Torn achilles.  The reason he was out more than half of last season.
    • When the panthers are bad, we sell a shockingly low number of jerseys, and options become limited. In the good years, we had a lot of different options. I think T-Mac is going to have to play well on the field for his jersey to get produced in the FUSE template. 
    • it's not the only way to be a threat, it's certainly important for certain roles in an offense and for certain type players and offenses.  as is the ability to get open quickly and generate easy throws.   as far as Renfrow goes, I have consistently said he is sort of his own thing and not really in comp w/ others here.  It's a niche role/job.  Anyone talking about something else from him isn't me.  Just depends if we want to do what he does and if he can still do it.  as far as AT goes, yeah, he does lower our ceiling given the % of our offense that goes through him and his limitations at this stage in his career.    He should be a roleplayer, much like Renfrow should be if we want to insert what he does into the O....not an O being run through him.    Renfrow isn't going to lower the ceiling if used correctly.  Niche assignments to move chains.   It's like a short yardage RB that comes in to pick a random play.  Renfrow is best at that 3rd and 4 type scenario IMO. AT lowers the ceiling because we build the pass game off an old WR that shouldn't be the focal point of a pass attack.  Not to mention, Bryce Young is practically tailor made to get the ball in the hands of YAC players.   So you need those type on the field.
