Figured we should get the game talk out of the General MLS Thread and into the weekly threads like we used to do.

Here is the lineup.

Just curious, why the LAFC v San Jose matchup? Galaxy v San Jose was a rivalry before LAFC came to town, but I don't see any real ill will between the two, unless I'm missing something?

Crew have been struggling and even at full strength couldn't beat or dominate a Cinci side who is not that strong. Of course, that can change at any time. Cinci's game plan was to control zelarayan, and it worked. It'll be curious how Philly will address a full strength crew. should be a good game.

I'm only looking forward to LAFC getting spanked by the quakes.

Well for one they're crap recently, but LAFC and San Jose for me are two teams that play cool attacking football, so it'll be a really fun watch!
....Which is the same thing people said about Bayern vs PSG and we all know what happened there...

gotta say - houston are looking very good under Tab.. they are much more fluid and confident moving the ball around. They can become a contender if they keep improving under him.
