It was pretty clear that Caldwell wasnt the same after he twisted his ankle. He had played well to that point, but it all started going down hill after that. On my depth chart Kellyn Rowe is next in line at CM after Caldwell, but it was too important to keep him at LB where he isnt really up to the primary task of the position. 4th is Machado, not because he has earned it but because he hasnt had enough time on the field to prove his incompetence. After that, I probably prefer Fagundez to watching Zahibo plod around the field with no passion, and i definitely prefer him to whatever it is that Herivaux does
The season was over awhile ago..... Just watched the game last night on tape. We actually started brightly, but eventually TFC figured us out and their counters and Giovinco's positioning and play skewered us. I think I remember at least twice and maybe was it three times where Knighton saved a ball, but a TFC person was able to put it back on/in net. Just much better awareness and proactive positioning by the opposition. Second balls just seem to kill us.
MLS Disciplinary Committee fines New England defender Andrew Farrell October 4, 2018, 6:30PM EDT MLSsoccer staff
The MLS had to make it seem like their refs didnt completely blow the call, so they embellished Farrell's reaction to make them look less bad.
