#1444716 Is Vanzeir a bust?

Posted by Antonius Block on Yesterday, 12:12 PM

 

 

More likely, if Vanzeir keeps missing easy shots, the thing that happened at 4:20 will start happening more, i.e. people ignoring an open Vanzeir as if he's Barlow. 

If I am Lewis Morgan, the first man I am looking to pass to is Vanzeir.

I think it might be time to delete the Vanzeir bust thread.

I do not understand the knocks on Vanzeir today. The ball he played to Manoel was fantastic and not the type of thing any forward we have had in years could do.

They are looking better in possession than they have in about a decade.

Luquinhas was about as successful in goal production over his time here as was Alex Muyl. Luquinhas just did more tricky dribbles, which were not particularly effective based on underlying statistics.

Luquinhas seemed like a nice guy but I saw more than enough of him to conclude he simply is not very good and certainly not a DP level player in 2024 MLS.  He could be a tricky dribbler but not do much else.

Really bad move.  I honestly think it is one of the worst things MLS has ever done.  It is all about forcing this stupid new competitions on fans that MLS thinks will be more lucrative.

I always hate seeing the homegrown boys go, especially over the last 5 years when they have not been replaced by superior talent.  If we are going to be mediocre, I would rather watch a mediocre team of academy products than random foreigners.  Hopefully we are good next year and it is not so bad.

Is Lesesne a particularly good coach?  - No.

Is he going to be the coach next year? - Yes.

How do I feel about that? - Meh.

After reading his post game comments, he is 100% keeping his job based solely on how good he is at kissing Red Bull corporate ass.  He is exactly the man they want in charge of a club they do not want to spend money on.

He should be bought out.

You have been a fan of this team for a long time.  Do you think that will result in the money being spent on bringing in a player who is better?

Reyes.. tough series. I hope he can grow from this and get better.
 

If you are stupid, you are stupid forever.  Look at Matt Miazga.  He is just as stupid as he was ten years ago.

Is Andres Reyes the worst playoff player in the history of the team?  I think so.

This team man. Once you think you've seen every single possible way to fail, they surprise you.

If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times, Andres Reyes is the dumbest player I've ever seen.
