RSL vs LA: Western Conference Championship --Sun Nov6--P/I/P

RSL just tweeted that the XI will be out soon:

"RealSaltLake Real Salt Lake
Should announce confirmed #RSL XI shortly on @ESPN700 ... Don't believe all the speculation you might have seen elsewhere"

giving me hoop, fingers crossed.

 

Where are you seeing this stuff?

 

i'm not believing anything the idiots sitting behind computers are typing right now. we'll see.

 

FSC showed both lineups on the postgame show.

 

kickoff is in 1 hr and 3 minutes, expect the lineup in the next 10 minutes probably.

 

And what did it say???

 

i SERIOUSLY doubt they have the lineups, that was pure speculation bullshit. Kreis wont release his final lineup until the very last moment (around 1 hr before kick).

 

Um.. aren't you sitting behind a computer typing right now?

 

Whether it's correct or not, the line up showed on FSC was Nicky, Russell, Schuler, Wingert, Beltran, Paulo, Beckerman, Javi, Johnson, Fabi, and Sabo.

If it's wrong, don't blame the messenger.

 

shit, i dont believe myself 90% of the time.

 

I have a feeling someone intentionally "leaked" an incorrect lineup.

 

edit, nvm. again, i dont believe myself.

 

hahahaha, trey just imploded, olave is starting.

 

wrong. trey just dropped it on ESPN700, olave is starting. no word on borchers yet.

 

I win:

RealSaltLake Real Salt Lake
#RSL Starting XI: Rimando; Russell, Olave, Schuler, Wingert; Beckerman, Williams, Johnson, Morales; Espindola, Saborio


whelp, we got half of borlave and i think the more important half in terms of keeping balls out of the net. borchers is a good organizer, but i think with him never experiencing a quad/thigh injury before kept him out. olave knows how to play with leg injuries and bigger than that i think we need olave's speed and athleticism. plus, olave on set pieces if we need something at the end is HUGE (literally).

 

It was different than the media package lineup that didn't have Paulo, Jr. in it. Still, I agree, it was a leaked incorrect lineup.

 

going into this game I am really nervous. I have no idea what the outcome is going to be. I don't even want to through anything out there because it probably wouldn't be close at all. I think it is going to be a really good game. Possibly going to overtime and PKs. I'm super anxious

 

I think part of Shuler's problem last game was not having the other half being a long term solid presence. With Olave back there, someone he's played with before and practiced alongside a bunch, there is a good chance that Shuler returns to his previous form.

 

the most important thing for this game: do NOT concede the first goal. teams that score first are something like 10-0-1 in the playoffs, conceding the first goal is a death sentence. the next important thing is getting sabo on the score sheet, when sabo scores we have a ridiculously good record.

 

Thank god the ish on FSC was wrong. Paulo on the wing made no sense.

#RSL Bench: Reynish, Beltran, Borchers, YAlvarez, Gil, Grabavoy, Paulo Jr


so borchers on the bench.

 

Why was I thinking that Borchers was more healthy than Olave?

Anybody know who is on the bench?

 

That is the most solid bench I've seen in a while.
