We were playing reserves, injured players (Martinez) and players out of position mostly because that is all we have left at the moment. Our squad has never been as destroyed with injuries as this season.
It's sideproduct of playing 5 tournaments in '08 (CCC, Open Cup, regular season, Stupidliga, CCL) and bad luck.
PS And I hope MLS and Garber step in front of a truck for forcing stupidliga on DC
I think the argument of playing so many tourney's is weak. It just shows that our league and its teams does not have deep rosters. Mexican teams play: FMF, pre libertadores, libertadores, cope sudamericana, superlega, CCC, and CCL and not many complain. If anything I complain that we dont have deep benches....raise the salary cap!!!!
If anything, its dumb that MLS doesnt spread the teams that play around
'
ie: 1st-4th play CCL
5th-8th play superliga, etc
