The club has 6 of 7 at home in June-July, which is great, but it's also the hardest home stretch: Orlando, Atlanta, Toronto, Red Bulls, Impact, Crew, with the Away at Chicago sandwiched in there.
It's really the very end of the season where things seemingly get easier. The last 7 are against teams we don't currently expect to cause problems, though in MLS sometimes that changes on a dime. Revs, DC, Impact, Fire, Minnesota, DC, Union.
I just get impatient being the last game of the week, especially Away.
We're really lucky this year/summer as we have a ton of home primetime kickoffs to keep us out of the hottest part of the day. I think the only one after June is on 6 June at 230, which is still not horrific.
Squad rotation. He’s played a lot lately, last week was intense on turf, and he’s young - don’t burn him out.Medina on the bench and Berget starting.....
All the talent on this team, and we have literally 1 attacking sub on the bench. And he should be starting.
You go on and stress.
Ulrich full of shit in this instance. No good excuse not to start him.This is NYCFC’s agricultural squad, it would appear. Only missing Sweat.
I have a feeling PV is pulling a Klinnsman with this match and his extra attacking talent is already in the field - ie Sweat come on and Mata pushes forward. Or Herrera comes con and Maxi pushes forward. Don’t agree with it at all and a very strange bench.
What if that good excuse is that he failed his fitness test today? Or PV wants a true impact sub? I don’t know and neither do you. You outweigh me by at least double so you’re typically full of twice the shit as me on a daily basis.You go on and stress.

Well, I have a foot on you, so my shit is spread much farther.
Inverted wingers are fairly common in our system, no?
I'm also looking forward to seeing our midfield without Herrera. The hypothesis is that we need his physicality and the result of this experiment has broader implications for our roster construction, the prospect of playing two 10s etc.
Frankly, if we're going to start Berget and Villa, why not push Villa out to LF like in his glory days and bring Berget central as your target man?
They will likely do a lot of switching. Let Berget run the line on D, save David's knees.
