The one where father has spoken, and the kids don't care

1: it’s been a long time since Daddy’s visited his children and so it’s only fitting he bring them a gift in the form of a Goalazo. It was great to see Josef bag one, and even better to see him do it like that and EVEN EVEN better to see him do it against Orlando. That being said, it’s concerning to see him totally spent at the end of the match both physically and emotionally. It almost looked like he too was acknowledging where we are and how unlikely reaching the post season is becoming. 

 

2: I’m ok with taking risks going forward. I want it see it but, it has to result in chances. Apart from Josef’s and Moreno’s Goalazos, chance creation was not there in the first half. Pretty disappointing considering our last two games have had our highest chance creation. Yet somehow we score 2 tonight. 🤷‍♂️ 

 

3: Alec Kann is a tremendous shot stopper despite seeing 3 go into his net. It could’ve been double that. Look, I love Guz but do we really want him in between the sticks after not playing for a month? Do we really want to take Kann out of this rhythm? He’s been here for all the turmoil, the changes…..I personally would like to see Kann stay, at least for now. 

 

4: We still don’t do jack with corner kicks. We try training ground stuff 9/10 times and it comes to nothing 9/10 times. And we continue to get undone by them. Regularly. Routinely. 

 

5: We are an incomplete team. Both literally and metaphorically. It’s nice to see More o being more of that playmaker 10 and he does seem to be trusting himself more and more, trying stuff he wasn’t just a month ago. However, we just have too many injuries to too many key players. We can’t put together a full 90 minute performance on either side of the ball. It’s just not there for us this year. We’ll still be here. Our support will not waiver but I don’t see us playing much soccer in the Fall even with a new coach bump or a big money signing.
