OK, what we have here is a game that has a bunch of folks that might not have gone to a soccer game except for that special pass they'd bought. So, they are there... and this is the show we put on for them. So much for growing the fan base.
Now I am glad I got called into work. Too bad my wife and son had to endure this. Go from Saturday's game to this....
so you shell out some coin to get a home game to "reward the fans" and get the home field advantage, then you **** the bed. I'd be surprised if JK & company aren't more embarrassed about letting the fans down than anything else, especially with Manning on the radio telling everyone that the US Open Cup was "really important" as an automatic birth into CCL Took a giant leap backwards tonight in a lot of people eyes tonight...shame
Judging by all the MLS losses tonight, I don't think the League takes this seriously. Minnesota or another USL or NASL team might end up in the Champions league. That would really suck. These players were not motivated at all. I don't think Rimando's job is in jeopardy and time soon.
Yes Paulo sucked, but so did Bonfigli, Arnoux, Olave, Borcher's, Renish, etc, etc, etc, really got to say Kries sucked too for not getting his team up for this match. Really telling how much better Minnisota's first team was than RSL's second team. Oh well no points lost and we still sit in first in MLS. Hope for a better night tomorrow for the Nats.
Can we trade Paulo for a decent backup at GK and fullback? Bunch of scrubs out there tonight. At least the gans know how to show up, even if half of them have no clue whats going on.
I wish Jason would sub off players that aren't playing well rather than playing guys who he is comfortable with. I feel tanaka should have stayed while Wingert should have been taken off. Same with Steele. IS Enzo hurt?
