    This is such a poorly coached team. :(

    This team has plenty of quality but they look like a pickup team. This is a coaching nightmare. The idea that Rooney or any quality player would voluntarily come to play for Ben is laughable. Our defense is atrocious but no part of the team looks good.

    At this point, if you really love DCU do you root for a 10-1 loss, if only to hopefully prompt change? I just don’t see how they haven’t fired every member of the coaching staff twice.

    Asad has been next to useless, but that may be poor coaching again. At least Durkin looks decent.

    Some. Not convinced of plenty. Fisher has yet to play a match above pub league level for us.

    Arinola is playing with an intensity that screams “I am being considered for a trade out of this shitshow’

    RSL is trying to give this away.

    Asad, Steiber, Lucho, Arinola, and despite tonight, Mora all have some worth. Durkin will with coaching. The team has some talent. But there’s clearly no plan of any worth.

    If Acosta is such a moron he can't be trusted to stay on the field, they should kick his ass to the curb.

    Just pick any name on the team and your statement would still be valid.

    Segura was a cypher. Arriola looked strong throughout.

    So I’m Rooney and I’m negotiating. Gotta figure every minute the team plays my leverage goes up. Ugh.

    Poorly coached would be an improvement.

    RSL was, in my opinion, the easiest team we will play for the next 7 games or so. That our bumbling fools in Arriola looked OK against other bumbling fools says nothing

    One could say the same about Etch but we were better with him on the field - same with Acosta.

    Was Acosta issued a yellow at that point? Why take him off if he didn’t have a yellow.

    We could’ve won this even with the man down. RSL is terrible.

    Losing to Philthy and RSL back to back is unacceptable. Those were six available points. Now it gets harder as SJ is coming off a win and LAFC is playing well. Seattle will likely be difficult in their home.

    Dang!

    As soon as he finishes his 6th pint he's going to drive his Chevy over to his agent's house and kick his ass

    This team is good enough to lose by 1 lots of times. Too bad that isn’t the “goal”

    Those extra weeks without games have helped keep us above 0.5 PPG. Counting from the bottom we're first East and West

    So here's the thing.. First of all, they were down 2-1 already and down a man. Secondly, they would have to chase, at altitude, for the remaining 70 odd minutes.

    makes all the sense in the world to take off a petulant midfielder who plays no defense to begin with. Lucho could have gotten so frustrated that he might have gotten himself sent off.

    i don't agree much with anything Ben Olsen says or does these days, but this i agreed 100% with. Save his legs for a game they could possibly get a result from later. Don't ware him out fighting that uphill battle.
