After last night's mess it is obvious to all except maybe OZ that Chrono has to sit. Play Akwari already and let him grow. BTW start Davis already as well and leave him in as these two guys have more talent than any other 20 yr old guys we've seen come by us. Faria can not finish and has killed us once again.
Let me think. That Ben Olsen guy sure is speedy. Who can I put in against him? Maybe that Chronostopoluse guy. I mean, he's gotta be good with a name like that right? It isn't like he is going to be burned on every play. Akwari needs to start. Oz needs to leave.
Gem in Akwari We found a gem in Akwari Gemmm in aaaaAkwaaariiii We found a gem in aaaaAkwaaaariii (repeat) coined by..you guessed it -- metroflip73
There should be no ? here. Akwari over Chronopoulos. Chrono just can't keep up with the fast pace that MLS is starting to show. MLS is growing and the competition is getting better as shown by this year's playoff race. Chrono. can't adapt and should be on the bench as a sub--late game at that. Akwari isn't perfect but he has a long time to grow into that role that we need of a defensive defenseman who is a leader as well.
The A guy is a faster player, and most likely a better defender then the C guy. The C guy startes because he has more experience then the A guy, and because evidently they want the C guy to push up a lot in the attack on overlaps, etc. The problem with the C guy on the attack is he makes some bad passes, and he makes a bad cross when he does push up on the attack. So I would rather see the A guy start, and not get so envolved in the attack. Richie
This should be our lineup: ..............Diallo/Faria......Mathis.................. .........................Williams.......................... ....Davis....................................Ramos...... ..........................Paule............................. ...Akwari.......Jolley......Petke.........Ziadie..... ........................Howard........................... Diallo starts over Faria if healthy. It's so obvious, how does OZ not see this?
I agree akwari should start, as should davis. The team seems to do the best when these guys are in the game. Davis instead of zaidi and akwari instead of chronopolis
Soccernuthost , that lineup is wanted by everyone BUT Oz. I don't get it. Maybe he has a contract he wants out of and a loosing season is the only way. Or there is stuff that happens in practice that we don't see. Your guess is as good as mine.
Gee Faria bashers, who scored the only Metros goal tonight? Mathis? No. Diallo? No. Davis? No. Oh yeah, it was Faria.
Now you see why OZ was hesitant to start Akwari. He'll be a good player but he's still subject to making rookie mistakes.
