Especially with both Callens and Matarrita unavailable

Pulling hard for Uruguay 3pm and Mexico 930pm on Saturday.

And Callens hasn’t even been playing. He could step in vs Seattle fit from training and rested.

Callens, yes. But it’s not as if Mata has any sort of history of competent defending, and he’s been directly responsible for some of the most glaring goals allowed by ball watching.

Not sure if this is the right place, but NYCFC awarded me with a signed Sean Johnson photo to be picked up at tomorrows game. If any of the fans have a young kid who would appreciate it, private message me and it's theirs.

It wasn’t necessarily a nod to Mata’s defending prowess than it was a reference to the replacements there.

Sweat is healthy so it’s not as if Rocha needs to be playing.

This is pretty much what I was thinking. Chanot played LCB against DC though. Toss up between Mitri and Isi for that last attacking spot. Greater than zero chance of Maxi at the 9 too. Could also go ultra attacking against a narrow formation and go with Isi at LWB.

Yeah, should have switched Chanot and Ibby.

Really surprised Sands isn’t playing.

Where do you see that alarmist weather report? I'm seeing a max 15% chance of rain at 9 on Dark Sky.

I see what you did there, but I was referring to both of them. Sweat is very not good as a LB or LWB. Defensively, he’s much better as a LCB.

Sweat started for over a full season at LB and played well enough to force a change of position for Mata to a LW. So I’m having a hard time seeing why people are clamoring for a guy that had to play offense rather than his “natural” position of LB.

There's that word again.

Apologies if that’s become a trigger.

Google Weather has thunderstorms predicted at a 40% chance from 6-7PM, 60% from 7-8PM and 50% from 8-9PM.

NOAA is warning about frequent lightning and possible "large" hail between 5-9PM.
