MAR heard you on the 4-3-3 anyway

I think it’s been his plan all along, just was hard without many winger options. He’s a really solid coach. Love his willingness to change things up and I love his transparency.

Perfect cross from Reyna 

His best game of the year in my opinion.

Reyna is so fast. Also the dribble that put DeAndre Yedlin on his butt. Yo.

McKinze Gaines is fast too but he had trouble controlling the ball at his feet. 

Hope Fuchs is OK. 

Good game today by Charlotte FC.

Never really been a soccer/futbol fan but I went to my first Charlotte FC game on Saturday and the atmosphere was pretty electric.  I am all in on the hype - I just ordered like $250 in apparel lol.

I'm still trying to figure out our roster.  I don't know these guys nearly well enough to pick them out on the field during the game.  But the way you guys are describing Fuchs, he sounds kinda like the Roy Kent of Charlotte FC.

Hahah Fuchs is our Roy Kent, that’s pretty spot on and fugging hilarious. The supporters section should do something with that. Not exactly sure what but something.

Honest opinion, Gaines kinda sucks. He’s fast and that’s it. Can’t utilize it at all

Yeah, plus him wearing that oversized jersey makes him look much suckier too lol.  Rooting for him though, maybe all those missed opportunities helps him improve.

On the road in Richmond tonight for another U.S. Open Cup match. Game is at 6:30PM on ESPN+.

Excited to see the 4-3-3 in action again.

I think he read your post before this game lol

Absolutely blitzed Richmond tonight, 5-1.

On to the Round of 16.

Goals: Shinyashiki, Gaines (from Reyna), Gaines (from Reyna), Reyna (from Ortiz), Rios (from Reyna)

Reyna factored in on damn near every goal.

His 2nd was legit good. First one is on no pro should ever miss. I was pumped for him and hope it’s a launching point for him

Boys hanging tough with Montreal early.

Guess we decided to go back to a 4-4-2 because of Mihailović.

Not thrilled with MAR switching back to a 4-4-2 tonight, it’s not like we are playing Man City… this is Montreal for crying out loud. No reason to adjust what’s been working because of fuging Montreal… not good to drop points at home.
