Love how we played the best XI to ensure 3 points at home, now well get 0 out of these 2 matches when we could have gotten 4 with some proper management.

If we remotely show up, we should come out at least with a draw. Looking at Dallas lineup, its not Ike theyre filled with any stars or difference makers.

I think this is the first time since like 2013 I just dont think we're very good.

 

Our roster is a little too MLS 2.0  with not enough quality, when some teams are adding 10+ million plus guys as an attacker and were adding Tom Barlow, who im a huge fan of from watching all usl games but the gap is just too big.

 

We've been waiting to see what happens when BWP isnt a 20+ goal guy and this looks to be the year, I still think there is a solid team when all the pieces are playing well but Murillo, Kaku, BWP, Royer, Jorgenson, are all not playing well enough. This is on the coach to find a winning 11 with this roster cause I think its there I just dont think he has found it yet.

Robles
Murillo - Nealis - Parker - Tarek - Lawrence
CCJ - Rza
Royer - Kaku
Generic forward

Have Royer and Kaku play as wide CAMs. Muyl over Murillo is fine too.

We're probably going to lose, so it would be nice to go down while trying something a little different.

This is on the coach to find a winning 11 with this roster cause I think its there I just dont think he has found it yet.

BWP still has goals in him but not if the guys behind aren't providing good service. And if all-MLS defender line (and all-MLS-caliber keeper in Robles) are playing at replacement level or worse, that doesn't give us too many chances to be consistently good. We'll probably still make the playoffs because of also-weak competition, but I agree we're not that good at the moment.

 

It might be as simple as getting a new manager and/or people staying on the field (Kaku, Taxi, BWP, Long) and everyone playing up to the level we know they can, but it's not a guarantee.

Gènèriç Förward is actually a Franco-German guy. Unheralded. 6'2"ish and unskilled, but can get to the right place when asked.
