El Brasil-Ecuador empezará 15 minutos después de lo estipulado por pedido de Brasil porque se transmitirá el último capítulo de una telenovela que es sensación para los brasileños JAJAJA

How weird is this? Embarrassing for football nation like Brasil.

 

It is the way things are trending.
I think Germany had episodes of German Antiques road show get better ratings then some of their matches recently.

 

The women team is a bore fest . Jesus

 

I think me and my drunk friends at the park play more

 

I mean 20 year old girls vs grown men

I’ll take the men lol

 

Will there be a time where James and Yaser can start together
Or too much magic for this

 

Diaz--James--Yaser
Arias-Lerma-Rios

Hypothetically we could do this but seems like too many cooks in the kitchen. Also could drop one of Arias/Rios for Yaser but you lose some defending.

 

what the heck happened to our defensive wingers in this game? Wonder if these guys (specially Munoz) were just being careful to not get carded and miss the next game.

Sini, who we've all been screaming for was also a non-factor. James did his thing but man didi he look out of form/out of shape. I commented before the game that he rarely has to track back to his own 25 to get the ball and in this game he was constantly starting the play way to deep in ur half.

If Lorenzo wanted James to not start he needs to realize (quickly) that without a MF playmaker (JFQ, Yaser or James), the team loses all of it's cohesion, pause, IQ and ultimately team offense/dynamic. It looked as if Rios wanted to take that role but doesn't offer that same skillset.

Credit to Peru though, they played a very strong game and seemed fulled of confidence. And while we played poorly, credit to our boys for getting a point out of this mess.

 

Peru played well the first half. we have to give them credit. Im still concerned with the fact that we are so James dependent

 

I think Rios didnt play that well and our center defenders didnt either. that is where the connection was lost. they tend to be that connection as they can bring the ball to the top half of our team. Putting Mina in was wild btw

 

I am confused why James was not started right off the bat; better to have as much as the pressure against the team at first before resting key players especially at an away game.

 

He’ll start Tuesday

 

The bad thing about head trauma is that you really do not know for sure until closer to the game.

I guess Yerson and Lucumí may have to be the alternative pairing (but we shall see).
Hopefully neither of them get injured or red cards or else we may in major trouble.

 

0-4 vs Bielsas Chile?

 

Bustos wasn’t a good player

but man he was a specialist from FK

 

Heyyy don’t talk about that legend like that lol. I was a big fan of his. Especially during his Cucuta days. That libertadores run by them was legendary.

 

that was a stupid yellow card and again his behaviour is causing him problems
