Expecting Wallace to start today. I know Lewis was great last time vs Chicago, but Chicago's outside backs are so important to Chicago's offense, I think we will need Wallace's two way play.
Can't imagine he would be starting considering how long he was out.
Good point. Wallace can drape himself on Poster since he's like another midfielder for them.
Watching teams with competent right backs is so weird. Come on Draz, don't let me down.
Ok 4:30 wedding with an infant excuse right as the cake goes on the table.
So do we play to our strengths today in trying to possess and play out of the back, or do we lay back and try and break on the counter?
Chicago is a team that also likes to possess the ball, and the idea is to spread teams out then fill those gaps. They went cold for that stretch because most teams were sitting back on them and not allowing them a lot of space to spread the ball.
But we don't always do well if we aren't on the front foot, and I feel like with everyone back and healthy, we have a stronger midfield then they do.

Release the hounds! Seriously, let our guys play their physical/up-tempo game with pressing and quick combinations in the immediate attack. If restarting from SJ, play from the back until they commit to closing it down and then let Callens go over the top. As long as PV doesn't out-think himself, we should be able to boss them just like we did last time prior to the two BS yellow cards.

You posted it. I tweeted it at basically the same time. I am deleting that pic of me and PV from my phone right now, damnit.
Hey Jon Patricof - tell your coach to sit the human traffic cone. Holy hell - the point is to win, not participate.
