  1. yeah, no excuse for Zendejas' play last two games. I'm a fan but damn he's played himself out of Copa minutes and into Gold Cup minutes. He seems to be well liked with the first team tho, so that might make up the difference for him.

    Lalas is putting it on a little thick but I agree he's gotten better. He's been smarter off ball and has made better decisions - even in the Jamaica game. Both of those finishes tonight were really impressive regardless of opponent.

    He's a solid depth piece moving forward. I'm not sure we ever actually experiment with him on the wing or as an AM but there are worse back up 9s to have. 

    theres no such thing as depth at the 9

    nines don't really get subbed out apart from performance issues. Theres first team minutes and ancillary tournament minutes. If Captain Jack Minnow gets first team minutes in a real competition, we're fucked.

    Jesus wants that 3rd 9 spot.

    not a 9, and definitely not the 9 gergg wants in his system (this is not gerggs system)

  4. this looks like a mid level ECNL match

    like those are the goals (and misses) they get at the U15 level

    No one here suggested playing him at the 10. 

    He doesn't suck. Certainly not compared to the rest of this roster. He had a lot of nice touches tonight - including the ball into the box that BV cleaned up. When you put the ball into dangerous positions goals happen and he dropped the ball right in front of the net. 

    He just can't play the 9. 

    He's not a 10 either. 9 is his natural position, he just sucks at it outside of fucking MLS. Now you wanna take a dude out of his natural position and force him into a different role? I don't get that. A winger? Hell no. Not nearly the pace needed. 

    Also, this was NOT a good cross lmao. Anyone could put this ball into this "dangerous position". Ignore Twellman vomiting that stupid shit.
