...GAME 9, cabras/PUMAS...ALL ABOUT IT (R)...

[franco]

...lets do it boys, make it 3 in a row...have not won at jalisco for quite some time, but keeping our order should be sufficient to get the result on our side...

...expect chivas attacking, pumas defending and countering...hope we come our with a 5-4-1 or 5-3-2 on this one...we obviously are the underdog...

...hope torre de jalisco is not on this one, but i am afraid it will be...:mad:

Probable starters.

[Piedraias]

I'm hyper stoked for this one. I think we'll do well, especially if we can score first. If that is the case chivas won't be able to breach us, if pikolin doesn't screw up. Awesome matches this weekend.

Just board surfing and yep the match is on telefutura at 8pm on the east coast with Ramirez and Bracmontes.

[Machetazo]

Damn, this will be an interesting game as both teams have a tronco at centerback who is prone to making mistakes. Fortunately for us, the teams we've faced the last couple of games haven't capitalized on Palacios' mistakes.

I'm hoping that Pumas will capitalize on one of Maza's mistakes as surely, he will have a couple, at least. And that Chivas don't benefit from a Palacios error. Or better yet, Palacios should stop trying to juke the opossing forwards and come out playing from the backline.

Anyway, Pumas will surely rely on the counter-attack and speed of their offensive players to try and get a goal past Sanchez and hope to hang on. I'll be happy with a draw but I'm confident that Pumas can win the three points in dispute.

...yep, besides the two obvious good ones, the toluca/tigres especially important for our group...atlas/jaguares should be dynamic as well...

...possible way tuca would come out?...i say is a 5-3-2 but would like it to be 5-4-1 so we recover a lil bit more balls and just dont give chivas too much possesion...

...i like the fact tuca comes out with a line of 5 instead of 4 in the back cuz our 2 carrileros go to the attack but not much and when so, only one does so we are still in the back with 4 to defend...

...yeah, hope pikolin does a fantastic job today, i forgot about maza for a bit but he may also become a liability on chivas side...hope pumas take advantage of such weakness...i have noticed teams tend to attack us more on our rigth defensive side given pikolin's apparent weakness, that is why i think is important to have an extra man in the back instead of just 4...i have been saying pikolin offers more than maza, hope he proves me rigth today...

...another matchup will also be our goalies...hope oswaldo has a terrible nite and bernal a terrific one...

...i am not too scare about bravo, since he seems to choke on important games lately...given our back line is focused i dont see chivas scoring any goals...:cool:

[franco]

...i dont like 4 in the back, they better make someone else help...

...torre de jalisco is gonna start repeating "sss-co-co"...********ing biatch...:mad:

[riverplate]

Bofo instead of Juan Pablo Rodriguez as starter for Chivas.

Ariel López and Ariel González instead of Scocco and Reinaldo for Pumas.

[riverplate]

Pumas lucked out on that offside. The defense left everything wide open.

[franco]

...this line of 4 in the back is not working so far...:mad:

...we need an xtra man in the back, that is why...:mad: ...tuca is risking it a lil to much...i knew they were gonna be attacking our rigth side cuz of pikolin, who surprisingly is playing good so far...

i don't know about that. bravo entra como juan por su casa por ese lado.

...that is why we need an extra man in the back, espinosa has a big gap between pikolin and him, plus he just had a yellow (where is castro?)....so tuca needs to bring down moreno to left of veron (middle) and then velarde on the left of moreno...

[franco]

...we are doing a great job defensively so far...pumas is back to a line of 5 in the back, most of the time now, moreno comes back and when one of the defenders pushes forward leandro immediatly covers the spot to keep it with 5 in the back...bien en las coberturas...still way to go on the game...

[riverplate]

Scocco and Reinaldo in.

[franco]

Scocco and Reinaldo in.

...espinosa is becoming our liability...he has to watch out since he has a yellow:mad: ...

...good subs...
