    Colorado have 7 points after 11 games and are at the bottom of the league. It's another one on the road, but after a full week's rest, this has to be a win. Also, we have the better keeper named Tim.

    Anyone have suggestions how to get to the game if they don't want to drive? Coming from Aurora doubletree on MLK and Quebec.

    Other than Uber I'm not really sure, you might ask on the CO boards, but I think their only shuttle stuff is from downtown area.

    EDIT: See you already did that, ignore me.

    this needs to be 3 points while we have all of our players. i expect to drop a number of points throughout the summer because of depleted rosters in june/july and fatigue come august. we need to rack up as many points as possible to cushion our inevitable slide.

    Dwyer is still out, Blessing in his place, otherwise it's the starting 11 you'd expect. Only "surprise" is that Ellis isn't in the 18. Not that many of us mind that, but it leaves us without a CB on the bench in case Opara remembers he's made of glass...

    SAS? I mean we don't usually need a CB sub, but not having anyone on the bench is poking the lion, I'd think.

    Not sure how that was a foul on Opara at all, but poor set piece defending

    It was a terrible call. Badji just ran into Opara, goes down, then he gets the call?

    Welp. Thank god for Melia on those 2 other headers. I do think our offense will break them down. I would like to see Porter in the second half

    Great example of why we need a target man. We look like a poor man's Arsenal. Don't get me wrong, I like what we're doing, but at some point it would be nice to chip into a tall forward in the box.

    Set piece defending has been poor tonight.

    Offensively vs the bunker...well, it's unfortunately been pretty par for the course.

    But damn that foul call on ike was bad.

    That was sucktacular. Vintage SKC, a boatload of shots, few on frame, and none in the goal.

    36 shots in the last 2 games without Dwyer, just 4 on goal, 0 goals.

    Seemed to me that disco could look into one or two of those challenges by Colorado... Besler and Benny took a couple of blows that i don't think had anything to do with soccer.

    Was anyone there for the Tim Howard show after the game?

    Bummer of a game to drive down i70 to see.

    Fantastic road support. Considering that in Berlin, the distance would be the equivalent of a game in Paris, it was quite amazing to take up more than an entire section. Looked great on tv.
    Sadly, they focused the cameras quite a bit on the game...
    It was the least impact Gerso has had for us this season. Medranda... maybe that summed up the evening. We get a free kick in a great spot and he takes the shot? To be fair, I don't think Colorado was expecting that. Oddly enough, he skied it... shocking, really. Other than taking a shot, he was quite busy and effective. but man, he cannot put a shot on goal.

    Unfortunately, he wasn't the only one.
