Or, in the case of the prospect of Lopez starting in a match where we need goals, indigestion might be the more operative word. I cut the manager more slack than just about anyone. I wrote a long post a week or two ago talking about why that is so and actually agreed with the tactics this past week.
The M&M formationI'd try to go all out, get a quick goal and start to pull TFC out of their inevitable shell:
------Villa------Shelton
-Mata---Lamps---Harrison
----Pirlo---------Iraola
--Mena-Chanot-Brillant
----------Lurch
You'd have Mendoza and Mac if you need offense, RJ and Bravo if you need defense.
If that pic of Pirlo playing ping-pong is from today, then his calf injury is subterfuge. There is no way a person can play ping pong on a gimpy calf unless they stand still and don't rotate their trunk (which is impossible reaching for the ball) - any movement engages the calf muscles.Or, in the case of the prospect of Lopez starting in a match where we need goals, indigestion might be the more operative word.

But, if Lopez is in the 11 on Sunday, even my "company man" tendencies are going to be stressed to the limit. That said, I wouldn't have expected Vieira to say anything different, so I don't really put much stock in the fact that he said it.
He also said he had to make a decision on the GK before the playoff game..... all coach-speak.... everybody knew (or should have known if they weren't stubborn) that Lurch was going to start the playoffs. There is no way that Mikey is starting the game for us on Sunday unless we have about 10 pregame scratches due to injuries. We need to score multiple goals, not kick shins, and Mikey has zero goals & 1 assist on the year. He's not touching the field unless we are trying to kill off the game in the last 10 minutes."He said Mikey Lopez played well in midfield in the First Leg but stressed that he has not decided on a starting eleven."
Oh god.
There's nothing wrong with playing out of the back.

I threw up a little.
In the video Mix posted on Instagram Pirlo's feet were both planted in place the entire time (which was like 8 seconds). He certainly was not lunging around or moving quickly. In fact, as I said, in the video he didn't move his feet at all.If that pic of Pirlo playing ping-pong is from today, then his calf injury is subterfuge.

I wonder what demographic she's appealing to here. Maybe they're having problems getting the GFs to come to games.

I prefer to continue not knowing who she is.Clearly not any demographic I belong to because I had to google: "Who is allison williams"
She's fairly talentless and only got her gigs due to nepotism of her dad's former position and connections at NBC.I prefer to continue not knowing who she is.
