Sigil keeps penciling in an alleged 4-3-3, just to look like we are keeping up with the crazy kids. The last time I rang this bell, I as worried Sigi is past it. Possibly, but I think what is available to him to select for a front six is on the front office. Adrian can't fire himself, and he might feel a bit sheepish about firing Garth for completing deals he started. So I think either the players come up with a solution, or late signings work wonders, or we are missing the playoffs.
Firing garth is not the solution. Let Garth do his job. The most that could have is sigi gets the boot.
Playoffs? Much better Sounders teams than this (i.e. all of them since 2009) have crashed out of the playoffs in limp-dick fashion. MLS Cup is not a realistic objective. I don't really expect us to make the next round of the US Open Cup either. Better luck next year.
