I saw him in line up. but I don't think I heard his name called and I can't remember him on the field. I will have to go back and look at the video.

Check out MaximumOptimal's thread "Laying Down a Marker..." for some numbers for Bradley's and Kljestan's touches in tonight's game. Kljestan was very actively involved, but not as effective as MB.
Maybe he should have kept his trimmed locks and made them into a wig to wear for matches, so we can spot him better?

he won a lot of balls in the midfield... he didnt get into the attack much tho, and I have to feel that was by design...

Well I noticed Rico Clark when he came in the game, and it was all for turnovers and getting beat to the ball. So maybe not noticing Sascha was actually a good thing!

He had more touches than Bradley, but his passing was sloppy. Three of his backpasses went to Mexican players. Those are often the most dangerous turnovers because they leave the defender one-on-one against an opponent moving toward goal. He also didn't connect on a number of ambitious balls into the box, but hey you gotta try some of those. I thought his defense was ok, but not as good as Bradley who had a monster game in terms of interceptions.
