They showed it in the regular season, and now the playoffs too. They're simply quicker and more skilled than the Quakes' back line. It spells nuthin' but trouble this Saturday.
Two years ago I was saying on this board before the draft that we should take Buddle. He is a great talent and up and comer for not only the Crew but also the Nats.
You notice both Crew goals came against the right side of our D....they don't want no Wade. Cunningham dances around the rest of them with maybe the exception of Robinson, who was busy with McBride.
Cunningham said, and I paraphrase, "they just backed away from me." He seemed puzzled as to why that happened.
Re: Re: Buddle & Cunningham may be too much for the Quakes to handle except on the second goal cunningham penetrated the right side of the defense and then cut the ball back across the box...
Re: Re: Buddle & Cunningham may be too much for the Quakes to handle Sorry ldb, but the second goal came from the left side of the field when Cunningham made his run from the midfield (past Agoos who was leading the cheers) and made the cross. Also, I love Wade, but the Crew was picking on him with long high balls to Buddle. Also, Buddle scored one goal from the left side in the last game (4-3 Quakes win). So, I wouldn't leave Wade completely out of the blame game...
Re: Re: Re: Buddle & Cunningham may be too much for the Quakes to handle Cunningham was on our RIGHT(Crew's left)side when he touched it back to Buddle in front of the net, Wade plays on our LEFT(Crew's right). Not sure what match you were watching.
Buddle had two beautiful goals against the quakes - one for each of the past two games. I very much enjoy watching him and (little richie) cunningham (with the red hair). Too bad they're wearing the wrong color unis!
Re: Re: Re: Re: Buddle & Cunningham may be too much for the Quakes to handle Same game as you. You are talking about the first goal. Read my post. I was talking about the second goal. Cunningham was on the Crews right side which is our left side and is where Barret plays. Barret tried to recover but couldn't... Maybe you were confused by the last game comment. I meant the 4-3 overtime win by the Quakes, not the game last night.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Buddle & Cunningham may be too much for the Quakes to handle ahhhh....i get ya now.
