Gaines missed a 1 on 1 with the keeper which could be considered an easy finisher. He’s still got a lot of work to do too. Right now, to me, he’s just fast but he doesn’t always make the best use of it. 
Our only consistent attacker is Shinyashiki

Gaines didn't have much choice and was getting closed off by 2 defenders most notably the one coming in from the middle. He couldn't go more left and there was no one to pass to so he took his shot. It took a good save to stop him.

For what it’s worth, we’ve played the second most difficult schedule (behind FC Cincinnati) in the Eastern Conference.

However, we are going to start getting into the easier part of our schedule very soon. Nashville will be a difficult game but after that we have Inter Miami, Toronto, Columbus, D.C. United, and Chicago.

We should be able to pick up some points there.

Agree, seems like all he has is speed which is definitely dangerous to opposing teams.  He needs to put it all together now.

Goallll!!! X2

Fantastic counter by Charlotte and a great low cross by Bender to Ruiz results in a goal followed by a nice 1-2 combination between Bender and Shinyashiki which results in a blast by Shinyashiki outside the 18 that finds the back of the net.

FINAL

Charlotte FC 4 - Nashville 1

Fuchs 26’ Pen

Swiderski 61’ (from Reyna)

Ruiz 89’ (from Bender)

Shinyashiki 90’ + 1’ (from Bender)

    • I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.   
    • Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.
    • I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
