DSS is really good.Really nice writeup from our friends down south about the game. Worth checking out. I caught this on the Twitter from NYCFC Tactics, so credit to them.

Frank de Boer stuck with his usual system despite missing a couple of key attackers. Things didn’t go well.www.dirtysouthsoccer.com
Maxi is quite easily one of the best players in the league, and probably the most unheralded.I have also forgotten to mention how good Maxi's runs off the ball were on Mitri's first goal. Check out the GIF below again.
First, Maxi runs up the middle of the field, drawing Perez to the center and leaving acres of space for Mitri to receive Isi's pass. Then, Maxi runs across the top of the penalty area, drawing the other two defenders laterally past Mitri and giving him the opening to shoot. It was so clever.
This isn't commentary on your analysis, but on the gif you used, I absolutely loved the camera shots of the Supporters Section from that angle. Really fun to see after each goal.I have also forgotten to mention how good Maxi's runs off the ball were on Mitri's first goal. Check out the GIF below again.

Thanks. It's just from the highlights, but I picked that sequence because I liked the supporters too.
He should be strongly in the running for league MVP.
Yeah, I wasn't able to go to the game on Wednesday night either, and the YES broadcast showed that angle several times. I was a huge fan of it.
I think he is, sort of. Vela is going to win it going away, and that's hard to argue with, but Maxi will be in the Top 5.
Let's be clear. We won 1 game without Maxi. Record when he doesn't play is 1-2-2, plus there was the Houston game we were losing until he came on for 12 minutes, and we scored twice to win. I know you're not biased against him but your post undercuts him unfairly.
Right. Our win without Maxi was our first in two years without him.
OH MY GOD
it's just a poster they were giving out with lots of references to our team. I can't figure out some of them, but I got most of them.
