USOC: Kansas City at Sacramento (Wed Jul 27th, 9:30PM) [R]

It's a 2 game season.

 

Really excited to see more out of Thommy. He looked like a real damn piece of a real damn team on the weekend.

 

Will SKC start a man down (aka, Shelton at the 9), or will Peter FINALLY wake the #$%# up and start literally anyone else at that position?

 

You have to be actively trying to be this uninvolved in the game (from the LAFC game).

 

Shelton, where the ball goes to die.

 

I watched SAC play a week ago. They are an average USL team that should lose to most if not all MLS teams. Both teams believe they are fortunate to be playing each other because from SAC's point of view, they get to play the worst team in MLS. From SKC's point of view, they get an average USL team.
The good news for SKC is obviously the addition of Thommy who should cut the SAC midfield to shreds. And, if PV has a brain in his head, he will bench Shelton and start Agada. Its the perfect game to do it.

 

Everyone knows Shelton isn't the answer at this point but I'm not sure Agada is 90 mins fit yet. Perhaps we start with JFR or Salloi at the 9 and Tzionis in their spot. Then we swap one of the front line out for Agada at the half?

 

Not everyone knows. PV doesn't and I guarantee Shelton starts

 

Looking on the bright side...he does better in the open cup.

 

We’ll, what do you know, Shelton is starting. What a surprise.

 

Orlando waiting for the winner of this one after a 5-1 beat down of RBNY.

 

He did well against a USL League One team. Sac Republic are a level higher, and probably the level Shelton should be playing.

 

Shelton with a decent shot in the first minute. Let's go.

 

he literally should have had 3 goals by the 16th minute

 

Having trouble figuring out which team is the "lower" division squad

 

That was a sloppy half of soccer. And Sweat needs to sit down.

 

First half thoughts:

• Is Remi our best player? Not just today, but overall. I think maybe.
• Ben Sweat is not real good. Logan is a better option, but only b/c Sweat seems overmatched even tonight.
• Espinoza has been poor. Ineffective to the point of just sub in someone else to get something out of that spot.

 

Remi and JFR are our best players.

Sweat is rotational outside back. One you don't want to see often.

Espinoza is done as a player. It should be Duke or Hernandez going forward.

 

This game is absolutely painful to watch

 

Bonus pain ahead. Hard to win when you can't score.

 

I come in peace. If you can't beat a USL Championship side in 120 minutes, you don't deserve to win.

 

Going to bed. Good luck.
