Yeah probably. Hopefully we can grind out a 0-0. Columbus is a good team.

At least this game we get Sekagya back. Do we go with Cahill starting and then Peguy coming on for him? Or do we start Peguy instead and have Cahill come on in the 60th or so?

I think you start Cahill because he should be fresh and rested and lets face it hes mother fuckin Tim Cahill. I would also drop Alexander and start Steele. I think Steele would have something too prove to get his starting spot back and it also doesn't hurt to have another pair of fresh legs out there.

I would bring Cahill Back slowly. Maybe sub him in at the 65th minute. no reason to endanger his health if Columbus is a team that RBNY should be able to beat without him.

Bringing Cahill back slowly is having him play 20 min against Philly resting against Houston and starting against Cowtown. Also a fresh Steele with a chip on his shoulder would be better than a tired Alexander who was kind of avg yesterday.

Keep Cahill on the bench to bring on for either TiTi or BWP. Bring the guy back slowly. 

I would start Steele over Alexander. 

Peguy looked okay but a little tired out there.  Maybe start Bover?

Alexander has played possibly the best 180 minutes of soccer as a Red Bull over the last two games, I think it would be a little premature to sit him now.  Steele may be hungry to prove himself, but there's also something to be said about letting a player ride out a stretch of good form.

 

Peguy struggled last week on short rest, I wouldn't be surprised to see he and Cahill split minutes in the midfield pretty evenly.  

 

It will also be very interesting to see who Petke chooses to partner Olave.  I still think Sekagya has been the better player, but we know Petke likes Armando's style and he did have a very solid game against Houston.

IDK Iced, I thought Alexander was average last night, not great but not bad either.
