Thank God the EPL is back on because our season is effectively over.

Overall, the organization really dropped the ball during the transfer window… our three transfers probably won’t be available for at a minimum of two weeks… by then, we’ll be completely out of the playoff picture and the season probably will have unraveled.

Another thing that needs to mentioned is the selfish play of our side.

I mean this is high school stuff… two goals could have been scored tonight if the individual on the ball picked their head up.

1) Gaines decided to take a shot on goal from a tough angle when he could have laid one off to Swiderksi at the penalty area for a sitter.

2) Alcivar decided to take a shot on net (that was deflected for a corner) when he had both Swiderski and Bronico with him; either player would have been in on goal if Alcivar made the pass.

I don’t know if these guys are watching film or what, but these scenarios happen nearly every match.

I don’t particularly like Swiderski’s body language when things don’t go his way but I’m now starting to understand why he does it. The poor vision and selfishness of the team is starting to cost us points.

Hopefully Santos brings over some of that vision from the first tier Portuguese football he’s been playing.

A little dramatic,  we need 50 points we aren't out of it. They will probably go out and win next match. They just aren't consistent but they're goof enough to get to 7th

Yeah I'm surprised he hasn't been carded more. He gets whiney and then pushy with opposing players. But completely agree, a lot of is justifiable frustration.

I wouldn't call it selfishness though. We just have no vision up the middle whatsover. Too reliant on attacking out wide and our forwards are not creative enough to score like that consistently. Our crosses are ok but we only play at the right pace for them when counterattacking. I really think Santos is going to be huge for us. Swiderski in particular should just be getting fed the ball and not have to create as much as he has.

Charlotte enters tonight’s contest 4 points out of 7th. I personally don’t think we can afford to drop points tonight, and at the very least need to come away with a draw to have any chance at the postseason. Unfortunately, we are matched up against an LAFC team that has only given up points in 7 of 23 contests this year.

GK - Kahlina

RB - Afful

RCB - Walkes

LCB - Sobocinski

LB - Mora

CDM - Bronico

RCM - McNeill

LCM - Bender

RW - Jozwiak

ST - Swiderski

LW - Reyna

Subs - Marks, Lindsey, Fuchs, Jones, Alcivar, Gaines, Vargas, Shinyashiki, Rios

Not Included - Sisniega, Romero

Not Available - Byrne, Malanda, Santos

Injured - Corujo, Armour, Mello

Loaned - Zendejas (Independence), Santos (Independence), Hegardt (Independence)

No Longer With The Team - Makoun, Franco, Ruiz, Ortiz

With our coaching do you believe we can compete?? The team just looks selfish and our assignments look very piss poor.   Not a lot of faith in Coach L.

      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.

      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.

      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.
