I think he’s difficult to ref because he falls over easier. And I think he also falls over without being touched and stops playing and bitches and moans

fair, and yet bigger guys fall from contact with him too or at least look for it. I mean, adi who is like twice his size was looking for a foul when maxi just came in front of with him.
Haha I know. Maxi is damn-near world-class at positioning his body between the ball and the defender. Most of the time I see him getting hacked let alone getting fouled.
I'll agree that he accentuates the contact, but I don't think his play-acting is making touches look like fouls. I think he gets fouled so often because of his body positioning that he has to make it look so bad that the referee can't call it. IMO, referees let a lot of the fouling on him go unpunished because it's basically non-stop and they're trying to let the game flow.
Way too many times he gets nicked at and he just stops playing. I f’ing hate it. Play through. You’re on a break.
So if we have Ofori back for Philly, & Heber's hammy is healed, can we play like this?
Mitri Heber Isi
Sweat Maxi Ofori Tin
Chanot Ring Seba
Or did Parks jump Ofori on the depth chart?

That looks good to me, but I would take your advice and start Keaton.
Yeah, Parks provides more imagination & skill going forward. I think Ofori is more defensive minded. It might come down to how Dome wants to play that match.
I don't know if it's the first time Jimmy has practiced, but he was a full participant today (with a cast, still).
I remember a few years ago that Kendall Waston was playing with a full cast on his arm. Jimmy should be fine and strikers should be even more afraid as he carry a loaded weapon.
I think we see 3 ATB but not Maxi next to Ofori. Dome likes to play 3 ATB vs. two strikers, but Philly plays a midfield diamond. They with have 4 CMs vs our 2. Maxi is going to do Maxi things and we cant leave one CM isolated at times vs. many CMs.

I'm concerned about Ilsinho attacking the left side of our defense.
not sure where the ticket exchange thread is, but I've got two free tickets to the game in section 234 - first person to DM me, gets em
Especially with both Callens and Matarrita unavailable
