    Really good job by AMo of saving Turner's ass, after a senseless pass into a 50-50. If Morris loses that, Turner's out of net, & that's a goal. We see the drawbacks of the bad distribution again.

    Where did you get the idea that Turner thinks while playing? Nothing he has ever done gives me the idea that his on field intelligence has ever actually showed up.

    I'm about to start to suspect we're not very good.

    On queue, Lund with another ridiculous cross that should have been a tap in on the back post.

    Dang, I missed it, and I do not want to rewind during live play. What did he do after he received that ball from Turner?

    It'd be nice if we had a midfield that could string 2 passes together

    It's pretty clear this team misses a possession-based central midfielder who can control the tempo and is able to hold the ball under pressure. We need our Carlos Valderrama or Juan Roman Riquelme. Everything is just so frantic and panicked whenever we have possession, and it has been that way for a while now.

    Big mistake from Morris there. You can't let the ball AND the man get by you.

    Anyone else makes Turner suffer for getting caught in no-mans land like that.

    Pulisic for Wright.

    That was bad transition defense by Mckenzie

    Wright was the wrong play today.

    Fossey has some pace and is energetic, which is great. Can he cross at all? I have noticed zero evidence of that.

    Schulte doesn’t seem to make the same amount of consistent mental errors like Turner does.

    Turner has gotten down low very fast a couple of times tonight.

    Still, he's been one of the few bright spots for me today

    Ideally he'd have a player next to him who's positionally disciplined, cuz he likes to take chances.

    Ultimately he made a nice recovery to stop the 2nd shot at least.

    We'll figure that out once we have a competent midfield.

    No one doubts his shot-stopping abilities, it's the other stuff that's missing
