Gruezo plays well for the first 30 minutes or so in most matches it seems to me. I wonder about his fitness.
He stops giving a shit when he realizes all his hard work is going into the black hole of an abyss known as the Galaxy. I wouldn't give a shit either if I knew Jeremy Ebobisse was the guy I knew had to score for us.
If that’s true, then we don’t need him on the team. If it’s just that he’s crap and his best days are behind him, then we don’t need him on the team. Either way, we should ditch him. And Luchi continuing to start him, and leave him in, is a problem. Go Quakesfans!!
Didn't Alfredo Morales play dmid for the championship winning NYCFC, what 4 years ago? Or did he have a different role? Either way, he couldn't be less effective than Gruezo, could he? And he's "only" 33! He doesn't look fast, but Gruezo isn't either. What do we have to lose?
1. More and more people are noticing it saying it... 2. Gotta blame obviously Gruezo himself but also Luchi for bringing in a "friend of Luchi" and Leitch for letting Luchi do that with a DP slot 3. Are his percentiles even worse now than they were at the end of last season? Not ideal! We can analyze this comparative stats report a dozen different ways, but one thing is clear: Gruezo's performance as a Quakes player has not been DP level over the past year. pic.twitter.com/5gRNvEFJWC— Phillip Leyva (@philthisisphil) March 16, 2024

Fighting his teammate in the copa america: Hablemos de Carlos Gruezo:-Siempre que abre la boca habla hvdas-Quiso agredir a moises caicedo-No sirve ni para el cambio-Ni el sabe cómo aún es convocado-Ofendio al hincha ecuatoriano ESTE SEÑOR TIENE QUE SER EXPULSADO DE LA SELECCIÓN. pic.twitter.com/5DzRwIOkVk— 🐊 (@albosayan1) July 1, 2024 Ecuador fans are done with him. I've been a gruezo defender, he was solid for us last season, but he has fallen off big time this year.
Funny thing is even the comments are bad. No one seems to rate him and most want him gone from the NT. He came on last night against mexico and played poorly, what a shock. On one play he had a forward (mina) all alone on the left band that would've taken him into the box pretty much alone and he over kicked it by 20 feet over his head with no one pressuring him. Even the announcers couldn't believe it.
We should have traded or transferred him sometime last year when I was the only one who noticed how useless he was. Now everybody knows and we may have to buy him out or be stuck with him thru 2025.
Well hopefully at least one LigaMX sporting director was impressed by Gruezo's performance in eliminating Mexico... all it takes is one!
"-He wanted to attack Moises Caicedo" - Moises Caicedo is unquestionably one of Ecuador's best players, a 22 year old defensive midfielder at Chelsea - Carlos Gruezo isn't even a good enough defensive midfielder for the 2024 Earthquakes who are the worst defensive team in MLS history I think it's pretty obvious who the federation and Ecuador fans will side with in that feud...
