Poor possession, poor passing. Columbus can never take their foot off the gas, especially not for 45 minutes at a time.
Setting a bag of money on fire would be more productive then what Santos/Meram are providing on the field
Mensah aside from one lazy pass has been our best player. Santos honestly may have been our best attacking player that half. I wish the strategy on quick counters was to actually counter instead of slowing down the run and hoping for a foul. Argudo for Meram sub needs to happen here at half. The few times J9 does pass to a wing rather than playing hero ball, the pass only gets hit at half speed and kills momentum.
John Strong likes to drop in random specific facts at every opportunity. The ref isn’t calling any fouls. I’m pretty sure Gregg is wearing a crew neck. Red Bull will score again so we’ll need one.
I love Meram but sadly I have to agree with you on this. The ball keeps getting hung up at him on our attack. Then he loses the ball.
He did. He floated one in to Robles also. Im just saying he plays with a remarkable lack of hustle. Ball played to space his side and from out of camera comes Murillo. Call me unsurprised. Long clearing ball gets played upfield after being on our side for 45 seconds. Guess who was f’ing offside b/c he couldnt be bothered to work back just a little bit. He might still score and Ill be happy if he does, but we give up a lot to have him on the field. Against a faster more physical team, the risk increases. Hopefully he pulls a rabbit out of his hat.
They wait for Mensah walling it up to to take a second touch and then press hard. We need to be a little leas casual in the back.
