    DC's availability report for today, as per Goff:

    Out: MacNaughton (thigh) Badji (thigh) Pirani (knee rehab and family matter)
    Questionable: Peglow (hamstring)

    Also, Schnegg and Herrera are one caution away from a suspension.

    Pirani is never going to play for this team again, is he?

    Would've helped to scroll that far down!

    I started back up with season tickets again in 2018 with Audi Field opening. I'm in 122 and not entirely sure I'm getting a discount. It depends where the split is between the upper and lower parts of the section. I'm paying $880/seat which is what the upper half of the section list price is. The lower half is listed at $1,020/seat.

    I don't know why he hasn't played yet since returning, but I don't think Kristian Fletcher will, either.

    He's been back for two weeks now. Goff says that Lesesne doesn't rate him.

    That's from above per Goff. Lesene can not rate him - that's fine. Just don't be a coward and invent an injury to cover it.

    Some rotation in the lineup today:

    Barraza; Herrera, Tubbs, Bartlett, Rowles, Schnegg; Leal, Enow, Peltola, Kijima; Benteke.

    Subs: Kim, Dodson, Antley, Servania, Hopkins, Zouhir, Barajas, Stroud, Murrell.

    Not dressed: Farr, Turner, Fletcher, Karamoko.

    Injured: MacNaughton, Peglow, Pirani, Badji.

    Interesting to see Leal get a start, the central midfield most people probably expected to start the season in Enow and Peltola, and Hopkins making the matchday roster.

    The Fletcher situation is unbelievable.

    Three center backs and two d-mids tonight against NYC -- Lesesne is really rolling the dice. Nice to see Leal get a start up front, with Stroud on the bench.

    Actually not. Has he ever impressed in a DCU kit? Forest had him for what 7 months and took a pass. Maybe, like Jacob Greene (now playing for Lexington FC), he is a legend in his own mind.

    The ospreys on the Fruitist sign sure do. That’s a huge nest!

    Cripes he’s 19 he’s going to have ten times the career of Stroud, he needs to play. He won’t play here because we’re losers who have no foresight. If you’re going to lose anyway, try and get something productive out of it.
    But hey, I won’t complain today, at least Leal gets a run. I swear if he trotted Stroud out there again that would be it for me with Lesesne.

    Apparently no one on DC ever expects their teammates to pass them the ball.

    Enow is useless. And a hack.

    Both teams can’t do the basics. This is sad.

    Even the crappy apple announcers can see we have no clue what to do with the ball.

    Good thing for us that they can’t do anything either.

    why not listen to local radio.

    I wonder what Jackson Hopkins is explaining to Benteke. Benteke looked genuinely interest and I can only assume he’s giving Benteke directions to a good sandwich place.

    Doesn't help when the players were just standing around.
