#1444727 Is Vanzeir a bust?

Posted by RedBullScouse on Yesterday, 04:04 PM in MetroFanatic.com

I have been and continue to be confident in Vanzeir's ability.    But he's approaching Chuck Knoblauch levels of the yips in front of goal and needs to start putting it in the back of the net.     This was a great game, but the weakened opponent and the wild weather make it very much a one-off.     




#1444689 Emil Forsberg lack of synergy

Posted by RedBullScouse on 26 March 2024 - 09:06 AM in MetroFanatic.com

Wow. Sounds like Emil didn't want to be told what to do anymore and have a sheriff at home and agree with everything. Perhaps he grew a pair, who knows...

Abandoning your family (apparently) isn't what I'd call "growing a pair."

Duncan has been playing well too, he had that crunching slide tackle inside his own box that triggered the counterattack for our 4th goal. I would let them battle it out and play whoever has a better week of practice

Harper has the ability to play in the back four, or higher up as a mid.   I'm guessing he'll remain as a sub, which is a good thing.   Good to have real strength off the bench.




#1444658 Emil Forsberg lack of synergy

Posted by RedBullScouse on 25 March 2024 - 10:03 AM in MetroFanatic.com

 

We shall part ways. Words I thought I would never utter after two children
and 19 years together and that still feel unreal.
I have loved you more than anything and always supported you. But even love
has its limits. The greatest love is my children and I want them to know their
worth just as I know mine. Being taken for granted and neglected is not love.
A new start in New York was apparently a new start for you and your life. It's just
that me and our kids didn't know about it beforehand. But it became painfully
clear quickly.
In the newspapers we have read and seen that you are doing well and are "enjoying every
moment". You also have future plans. We didn't know about them either. If only the reporters
knew that you've been talking to them more than to your family these past few months.
Since you haven't communicated at all, apart from stating that you can't explain
your actions, time will tell what it was you wanted to achieve by ghosting your
family. I hope that in the future you can show respect and consideration for others
despite your own needs. And have the courage and maturity to communicate.
I will continue to put the children's well-being and need for security first. For
your sake, I hope you have no regrets and that your new life in NY is worth a
divorce and the way you treated your children and their mother.

 

Wow

Left her to come to New York.

Like, left her left her?




#1444651 Emil Forsberg lack of synergy

Posted by RedBullScouse on 25 March 2024 - 09:27 AM in MetroFanatic.com

Apparently the synergy may have left his marriage.
There is something on her X in Swedish. I have seen an English translation, but do not know how to put it here.

Insta translates the comments but not the actual post.  What did he do?

I'll be that guy.... As outstanding as the four assists were, he needs to score in the opportunities he's given.

Cant move an inch trying to leave the parking garage. Good problem to have, I guess. I only parked here because of the rain. If I did my usual Lot B I'd be half way home by now

Great crowd and way less pink than expected.

It's definitely mostly Messi but we are also missing a lot of our guys.

Miami is missing 8 players, we are missing six, plus injuries.




#1444305 No MLS in 2024 Open Cup

Posted by RedBullScouse on 20 March 2024 - 07:44 AM in MetroFanatic.com

Last two games the first team we had there was almost 2,400 vs DC last year(would have been a bit more if it was a different day because I missed it because the Devils had a home playoff game vs the Rangers at the same time) and 2022 was vs Charlotte in Open Cup and was 3,500.

those announced numbers, or real numbers?




#1444290 No MLS in 2024 Open Cup

Posted by RedBullScouse on 19 March 2024 - 04:34 PM in MetroFanatic.com

I was thinking that too but was trying to be optimistic lol

Figuring maybe some season ticket holders getting free tickets and wanting to support the open cup brings out more than usual for RB2.

My biggest issue with this is I just can't imagine traveling far for this team unless they actually make the final.

2,000 would be a good number for the first team.

What we thinking for tomorrow? Over or under 2k?

Way, way under

The only ones I miss from the MLS exports are Omir, White, Gutman and Stroud. Nashville needs to go all out to trade for Derrick Etienne! is Tom Starlow

ftfy




#1444285 Random Player Name Thread 2024

Posted by RedBullScouse on 19 March 2024 - 04:06 PM in MetroFanatic.com

Raheem Sterling supposedly not doing well with Chelsea right now and may look to exit. Saudi league not appealing to him. MLS is something he would consider. Contract with Chelsea til 2027 but if things don't improve, could he be tempted by an early switch?

 

If Raheem Sterling leaves Chelsea, both MLS and Saudi Arabia could be an option - AS USA

He's going to Serie A




#1444279 Let's continue to complain about average players who are no longer here

Posted by RedBullScouse on 19 March 2024 - 07:20 AM in Beat The Dead Horse Forum

Well, one good thing (for us) about MLS is that you can lose shit ton of these games and still make play-offs and have a shot. Lack of quality though in multiple positions, weakened by Schnider, is concerning longer term.

I'm not so sure about the "have a shot" part.

Excited for but especially Edelman to make return
Glad we have depth at these positions

We do?




#1444206 Metro - Columbus Game Thread

Posted by RedBullScouse on 17 March 2024 - 06:03 AM in MetroFanatic.com

Until we sort out the top of the attack, we will always be a weakest-link type team, especially against good squads. Against weaker teams the defense can cheat up and contribute to the attack, but when Tolkin and Duncan have to stay home and actually defend, we're going to be vulnerable without a legit striker or two. Manoel and Burke are dead weight, and who knows what Vanzier is.

If we get the Morgan from 2 years ago, we will be an insanely good team. Hard to count on it though.

We were 25 - 30 goals off the pace last year.   If we get 15 from Morgan, we'll still need a bunch from somewhere else to be "insanely good" (especially factoring in Omir, Luq, and Barlow's lost  dozen).

Im not 100% sure Vanzeir is a better lone striker than Manoel

Tough to be 100% sure about anything with Dante, but Manoel is trash.

Really impressive,  thank you for this.

 

Corey Hertzog... 14 teams in 13 years.      Those are Juan Pietravallo numbers.

 

Bezecourt plays for Geylang International, not Geyland.

And a guy with that level of professionalism probably isn't going to age very well after turning 30.

especially when most of his game is based on his speed

Vanzeir likely back for this one. Someone mentioned to me he had to go back to Belgium for a personal matter and his last match missed wasn't really injury related.

With that, hoping Stroud moved to the bench and Vanzeir steps back in.

Coronel
Duncan-SNealis-Eile-Tolkin
Edelman-Amaya
Vanzeir-Forsberg-Morgan
Manoel

Bench: Marcucci/Meara, DNealis, Harper, Reyes, Stroud, Carmona, Gjengaar, Burke and one of Donkor/Mitchell/Hall

hope its 4-2-2-2 with Vanzeir up top next to Manoel.    Not a fan of him on the wing.
