Pre-match: United v. Union April 10th

In other news....United should wear black shorts on the road.......

 

Barklage is living really, really dangerously. Was that him again on Torres?

 

Damnit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't expect the offense to be as pretty and as fluid as past seasons based on the statements that the coach made in the pre-season, but we look like a bad English team from the late 80's thumping the ball long to a target forward every time we have. When our midfielders accidentally get the ball it looks like they have no idea what to do with it.

The bigger shock to me is that defense looks even more inept than last year. I mean marking opposing players in your own penalty box isn't that complicated. What they hell have they been doing all pre-season?

I was really considering going up to DC to watch another game in person, but no thanks. I'll go watch ManUtd in Houston versus the All-Stars.

 

Corner kick

 

Are they even trying? I'll settle for at least 1 goal before the 90.........

 

As a neutral i find it hard to believe DC couldn't use the services of LUciano Emilio

 

45 minutes of pain down the drain.....45 to go

 

We can't get the ball to our forwards in good spots now. Why pay more for the same thing?

 

We could have Rooney and Messi playing forward and I'm not sure we would have scored yet this year. Emilio would not help.

 

wow horrible half, this myabe the worst dc united ever

this team needs better everthyng, better defenders , better midfieldes, and speaclly better strikers

 

We could have an empty net and not score.....

 

This team is borderline unwatchable.

 

Our reserve team scored goals (granted it wasn't against a MLS team) - why not let them suit up and play the next match?

 

Its what I like to call 'chuck it up the field and pray'.


Our team looks like crap, I dont know how many times it will take for us to figure it out, but Quaranta is NOT a central distributing midfileder! All he is good at is running with the ball, not holding or passing too much. We need moreno in here no matter how old or how slow he makes the game, thats what we need. The pace is going to fast, with no control.

Moreno will bring that hopefully. Barklage is tough, but wiht a yellow he should go with Moreno coming in centrally midfield wise, with Quaranta pushed wide.


"THE NY REDBULLS IM SORRY THE DC UNITED" lol

 

I would like to see Cristman sometime idk when. At this point we might as well play our youth teams

 

Is this a professional team? I mean this guys do draw paychecks, right? What happened to this proud franchise? Hope its better in the second half.

 

Remember the DC Rule...there can only be one good team in Washington.....This year its the Caps...

 

Jaime is in.

 

who is out?

 

Is that why the Freedom don't play in DC?

 

Lets just look at a ball that goes through the box, It will make its way into the goal by itself

 

I have no idea.
