2023 Charlotte FC Game Thread

Very disappointing loss, but the mistakes that were made in all three goals are things that can be corrected through coaching. 

The back line needs to communicate better, but it's not shocking that mistakes happen with multiple new players back there; one that's only been with the team for about two weeks 

The Swiderski handball is inexcusable, he is one of the leaders on this team and has played penalty of soccer. He knows he has to get is hands down inside the box.

But, man that Copetti goal was beautiful! 

I saw a lot of good on the build up play, just missed on a few of the final passes, but I can see what they are trying to do with the three up front. Hopefully, with more time they can get the chemistry right.

It's a long season, clean up the few mental errors and build on the attack!

I found the stat that was shared in the broadcast interesting, where teams that had most possession in their game in week 1 lost all but 1 game. And would t you know it, we had 60% possession last night and lost by 2 goals. If Tepper is as much into analytics as he claims, I would show that to Lattanzio. Because we’ve held possession for the first 2 weeks and lost both games

I’d consider switching the formation entirely to benefit both our DP’s. Run a 4-3-1-2 like Poland runs with Swiderski and Copetti playing off each other.

GK - Sisniega (until Kahlina is healthy)

LB - Bronico (our LB position is atrocious, might as well play Bronico )

LCB - Tuiloma (though I’d like to see Diop get a chance)

RCB - Malanda (Corujo takes this spot as soon as he’s healthy)

RB - Byrne

LM - Jozwiak

CM - Westwood

RM - Vargas

CAM - Santos

LST - Copetti

RST - Swiderski

You know what? It's me. Went to the opener last year (which we lost), and was only able to watch 2 or 3 games on tv last year (which we lost). So I spend the AppleTV money, and watch the first 2 games, which we've lost.

Do me a favor. Just kick my ass, okay? Kick this ass for a man, that's all. Kick my ass. Enjoy. Come on. I'm not asking, I'm telling with this. Kick my ass.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
