Red Bulls take early 2-0 lead before Larin scores two of his own to even it up as the Orlando crowd is thrilled to come away with a point with yet another late game comeback. That is, until, the ol' boy from Orlando and the new boy in NY, Collin comes in and scores on a header off a set piece in stoppage time. Red Bulls 3-2.

Kinda want to see Colin play and get away with a shitty tackle that should have been a card so the OC fanbase just goes nuclear.

Another DOGSO on Larin please.


If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.

Is it crazy to think Grella should play striker ahead of BWP when Veron is healthy? Feel like Mike is putting away his chances in the box while BWP is putting his into the keeper. Love BWP, but he's not clicking yet this season, despite last week's brace.

I think so.  Grella functions way better when he gets the ball in space (IMO).  As a center forward, he isn't going to get that space, and he isn't going to be as effective.

I think it's time to put Veron up top, keep Grella there.  Sit BWP at this point.  Nine games is more than enough chance for him to get up to speed.  Otherwise put Veron in Grella's spot and Abang up top.  Empty bucket possibilities that way.

Benching Grella after his performances in the last two games would be madness. Veron wasn't even in the 18 yesterday, so starting him would be premature in any case. He needs to get some minutes as a sub first.

 

Abang should've come on after we went up 3 yesterday. He needs minutes in order to become a realistic alternative for BWP.

Really? I think Mike's way better in the box than he is outside it. Plus he has a striker's mentality - head down, go to goal. All his goals this year have been goals from inside the box. One a hustle goal and two he put away balls played into him inside the box, exactly what BWP has been able to do only once this year. Plus he's good at hold up play.

In the MF I think it's more important for a player to see openings for himself AND other players. Mike is not great at that - plays with his head down too much for me to be a great midfielder. But get him the ball in the box and he's good at finishing.
