Can we finally put in a good away performance and get some points on the road? MTL has been up and down this year and they are there for the taking next week, Let's build on the NE win and put some wins together. 

 

 

Start with the same lineup except put Murillo in for Zizzo. Hope and pray that Long is ok and maybe Collin will be closer to game action.

Remember that time we didn't lose from July to October? Then lost the first game of playoffs in Montreal? Jesse Marsh members.

Long was just cramping so he should be fine.  I'd hold off on Collin just because we don't have a game next weekend and that would extend his recovery time until the Open Cup game.  Toughest call is probably deciding who plays right back.  Murillo is the best of the bunch on the ball and moving forward, but I'm not crazy about his defensive instincts.

ANyway, I think we can beat Montreal. Piatti remains the biggest factor... Of the 3 right backs, I'd probably go with Murillo just because Lade tends to struggle with him, and Zizzo is always a question mark defensively.

Muyl instead of Grella, let him run around and be a pain in Piatti's ass.

This will be a test to see if we've figured out how to breakdown a bunker yet.

I think we're hurting more on the road because our counter attack blows right now... I just don't think we have enough pace.

Who needs pace when you have guys like Grella with mad backheel passes.

Keep in mind that Montreal has a midweek Canadian Champions game vs Vancouver....so short week of rest. In other words, trap-game for Metro!

Itll be interesting to pay attention who plays. With MTL having a bye week I don't think the two games in 14 days with 3 days in between should not be a problem for them. So yes, trap game it is.
