Post-match: Imposter Among Us! MLS Matchday 14 Crew vs Fake Yellow Team Wednesday July 21 730 pm

Hear! Hear!

 

We did it to ourselves, you know....

So Etienne will be returning to Columbus after Sunday's Gold Cup match. Gotta think the odds are that Molino might be coming back, as well.

 

That would be oddly fitting as our new forum tagline.

 

On so many levels too...

 

I'd be more offended with Nashville's yellow or gold if our club actually made a point of owning the yellow over the past several years. For years we haven't really owned it. We've worn black at home too many times to count. The black top has essentially been our primary for years, going back to beginning or middle of Berhalter's tenure. In the meantime we've had the For Columbus jersey and now this ridiculous stadium kit. Sometimes, even when we wore the yellow top we'd go with black shorts.

Again, we did it to ourselves. I'm far more discouraged with how the Crew has treated the yellow over the past several years, than any other team trying it on.

 

Etienne plays the last group game tomorrow at 5 pm. They need for Mexico to lose, themselves to win, and the combination needs to make up a GD of 5. I expect Etienne to be in the 18 for this match. Molino plays at 10 pm and they're already out so he definitely should be here too. Room's already here so that leaves Zardes, Diaz, and Fraser out for additional games.

 

Yes, going by memory at my age is not a strong suit.

 

Wait until you get to mine....

...now what were we talking about ???

 

Who are you, and what onions did you tie to your belt in the thirties?

 

Molino did not start last night for T&T. He was subbed in at 67 minutes. So you'd think he'd have the legs to play Wednesday.

Etienne played 90 minutes for Haiti last night. They only had two players on the subs bench, and didn't use either of them.

 

I think 45 for each is doable on Wednesday. You could start Etienne and Santos, then move Santos to left back and bring in Matan and Molino at the half (or one at the half, the other at 60).

 

Also worth noting they have only played 3 of their first 13 games on the road and are winless on the road.

They’re also missing Zimmerman, Johnston, and almost certainly Godoy, but Ake Loba could make his debut, having already scored against Columbus this year.

 

Odd, didn't have any problem buying parking at Brodbelt yesterday for Wednesday's game.
