Home (Citi Field) - 10/22 Columbus

[LionNYC]

NYCFC vs. Columbus Crew
Sunday 4 PM, YES2, WFAN (Online)
Streaming on FOX Sports GO or MLS Live (if not in the NY Market)

Win and we're the 2nd seed. That's it.

 

[rbose14]

We can only hope PV doesn't start Pirlo or Shelton, or even put them in on the bench. Not feeling very confident about this mess of a match, but hope for the best, you know?

 

[Seven]

Hope that Lewis starts in place of Harrison and Mata starts in place of Sweat. But that would make too much sense wouldn't it?

Probably gonna put Maxi out on the wing, and put TMac back in the midfield, then Shelton is gonna be the first sub off the bench. And Lewis won't make the 18. Ugh.

 

[canchon]

Alex Ring did not get a yellow card. That's right, Alex Ring did not get a yellow card. NYCFC can actually start Ring, Herrera and Maxi in the midfield!!

Of course Harrison is suspended, which means we'll get Khiry Shelton (yayyyyy). Silver lining is that this means Lewis has to be on the bench, so we'll only see 60 minutes of crap before Lewis is subbed on.

Also put Mata in for Sweat. Big Ben was atrocious today, guy thinks he's an athletic freak. Problem is he's not.

 

[LionNYC]

We control our own destiny.

A statement which another team I was rooting for on Tuesday had as well heading into their final match...

 

[canchon]

Win and we're the 2nd seed. That's it.

Lose plus a combination of other results and NYCFC is the fifth seed. Not even a home game.

MLS avoids it's scheduling problems.

Seems like Lewis and Ugo vanished around the same time, did they skip a practice or something?

Wish I knew what had happened to keep these guys out of the team. And what on earth they must have done that Khiry "I'm still learning how to be a footballer" Shelton gets games ahead of them.

They’ve been Mix’d

If this isn't the lineup on Sunday then we're not putting our best team out there:

Wallace-Villa-Lewis
Max-Ring-Herrera
Mata-Callens-Brillant-Struna
Johnson
​

I don't want to see Tommy, Shelton, Pirlo, or Sweat in the XI

I wish we would have gotten the win last night so Pirlo could have gotten a proper send off this weekend. As it stands i dont think the risk is worth the reward.

Seems like Lewis and Ugo vanished around the same time, did they skip a practice or something?

I have a friend who goes to a lot of practices who has informed me that PV is not very happy with how "lost" Lewis gets on the defensive side of the play. But that Lewis is working very hard.

Highly highly doubt it. I don't think we see him for the rest of the season to be honest.

Yeah, we only have two more games.
