08/15: This is a Call: Vancouver vs FCD [R]

I heard they finally got the interwebs in Canada, not sure you want to help them game plan on a short week.

 

SH will tell us almost anything... except if a player is starting or not.

 

Touché. I was hyped about hearing he was making the trip and had also just got back fom the bar when i typed that, got a bit too carried away heh

 

Wouldn't worry about it. I doubt it is a massive shift in their gameplan as they likely aren't setting up a strategy to stop Brian Leyva and then see Jackson appear from the locker room tunnel and be like OMGFML.

 

Dallas catches a break as Vancouver gets a dose of what FCD has gone through.

First thing Mike Jeffries ever said to me was, "please stop posting your lineup guess, we used to read it in Chicago and would know exactly what FCD was doing." Every coach since then has said something similar.

 

I want Leyva to get more playing time. He and Luna have got to step up NOW and show that they could make a difference. Development be damned; the time is NOW. We need heros.

So Sealy is out, Marcalin out, Jackson traveled but listed as doubtful on the report. Looking pretty close here.

 

******** Leyva! Lets put Benetiz at left midfield... hell yeah more defence. ******** DEVELOPMENT!!!

... and finally ******** You Shellas!!!

 

Interesting... I'm very interested to see how this works out... 32 minutes in and (judging by the ESPN game cast) I have no opinion... How does it look live?

 

i dont understand the love for Pertuz

and after that vancouver free kick off the cross bar, castillo then f's up the break away to DF.

those are my only observastions. Dont know that we can score with this lineup.

 

i'm not sure how castillo did that but.. hey 1-0 us.

it was like a 1 on 5.

 

Luna sucked...

.. Let us see what Top can do.

 

Top can do well... 2-0 us. Assist from DF. Shellas looked pissed afterwards though, perhaps he was thinking, "maybe i should have given this kid a better chance?"

 

lol sounds about right

 

Also he is probably a little pissed that this team scored 2 goals. Damnit that is not is plan. 1 fluke goal and then bunker. He has 7 defenders in their for a reason. i bet afterwards he has some very strong words about the team on the field that dared try and score more than one goal.

 

Whoa, Johnny Johnny!
Johnny Johnny Johnny Johnny Johnny Top!

Or, since his name is Jonathan, would that be "Jonny?"

Must be ahead of Luna now. Even before the goal, he did more than Luna in the first five minutes he was in.

Great job by DF there, but a superb finish by the young man.

 

Leyva makes an appearance taking the position of Left Mid (where he should have started) and pushing Benitez back to left back (Where he should have started) and letting Loyd go back to right back (where he should have started). so now the back line is going to try and get into sync with about 10 minutes remaining.

 

i really hate Canada.

but i like winning.

i also hate Shellas.

but i'm really glad to see DF play like DF.

I liked at the end when all the homegrowns mobbed Top.
