I believe it was an early red...

I believe it was an early red...

I posted these late yesterday. 2020 hasn't been pretty.

 

[LionNYC]

This one isn't going to be pretty. Though Zelarayan suffered an injury on Thursday night vs. Chicago.

 

[Kjbert]

Play the kids. Scally and Haak for Tinnerholm and Ring. Let Gray play too. Callens has been the invisible man.
The coach may suck but you’re a professional. Play like it.

 

[ManhattanValley]

What do we get from playing Scally? Valuable minutes for him to further his career in Germany?

Haak and Gray, OK, but I feel like this isn't a great environment for them to develop in right now. Unless they need some more work on how to spray a crossfield ball in no-one's general direction.

Preview of Monday’s game

I actually think we win somehow. No Zelarayan, a little more rest. I think Ronny knows he's an inch away from losing the team and the FO's trust.

Nah, we don't win that.

Hot take: Ronny's not as bad a coach as we think he is right now, and with them having to travel (aren't they forced to travel day-of due to covid?), I think we'll look OK in this game.

 

[canchon]

NYC is in last place in the league.

Nagbe also scored his one banger this year so he won’t be a threat to score either

 

[Shwafta]

Oh hey, it's game day.

 

[Fantazma]

as mentioned by others, Deila either never had/ or totally lost the locker room already. so i wonder if the players will not give 100% efforts to speed up firing deila

i think our guys want to win so they will do their best regardless. winners don't just give up. that being said, if i were in the locker room i'd be saying "screw ronnie. let's play the way we know how and get the job done." and then if ronnie starts subbing people off cause they aren't listening to his tactics, well that's on him and will be glaringly obvious as a managing thing vs players not giving enough effort (which was his cop out last game)

Interesting regarding Seb. He wasn't listed on the injury report prior to the Red Bulls game but then Gray made the bench over him.

And now, he's listed as out with a hamstring injury. I wonder if this injury occurred during warmups at RBA.

I also can't believe (but at the same time, considering our media climate, can believe) that nobody asked Ronny about this post-game so we wouldn't have a clear answer to it. Gray making the bench over Ibeagha was not something anyone would have anticipated. Just ask Ronny if it was injury related or if Gray had a great week in practice or whatever it was.

i mentioned in other thread....taty looked PISSED he was being subbed out in the RB game and didnt even believe he was being taken out. so i think were closer to that breaking point.

With Maxi questionable, whatever slim chance we had of getting a result is now gone. And with a league-worst record of 1-6 that better put Deila on the hot seat

It depends on what CFG want. They might have already determined this season is a wash since we can’t even sell tickets. Could be that we’re stuck with him for the year.
