I'll actually go ahead and call this game a must win

We're three points behind the Playoff spots with 14 games to go. There are still three months before our last regular season game. We all want a good performance, but we really haven't even come close to "must win game" territory yet. When we get to September, that's when we might start facing true Must Wins.

Looking at our upcoming schedule, you are crazy if you don't think games against Orlando and Montreal are must wins.

Looking at our squad for the second half of the season, I'm pretty laid back about it. That said, I'm very much in the "you can't expect an expansion team to make the Playoffs" camp. I expect nothing from this season and am not worried where we finish. The second season is where expectations come in for me.
 
Montreal will be billed as the game when former Chelsea teammates Lampard and Drogba make their respective debuts against each other. That's my call.

Yes, we must find a way to keep RJ Allen and Chris Wingert on the field at Mix' expense.

Is Mix available for this game? I thought he was still with the US team.

Well I would then drop Wingert and move Angelio to left back.

However, Lampard may not be available from what I read, so substitute Mix for him and I would go with that team.

This team needs to get some width in it, without leaving ourselves open. This is why I would push Iraola and Angelino forward.

Fuck just realised this is next week's game lol
 
Mix will be available. Remember the first Montreal game at home, Mix came on late after travelling from Europe and playing earlier. I'm sure he's completely TURNT to get on the field with Pirlo. This game is going to be (hopefully) our first match with a full, full squad.
 
Hopefully Yankee Stadium allows people to bring brooms because we're going to the sweep! 3-0-0!

way more important after MTL took 3 points from the Sounders.

We really need to begin to run the table from this point on. Orlando, Montreal, Red Bulls, DC, Colorado. All eastern conference matches within the next 4 weeks. It would be awesome to get 11 points.

And we're also at a point where we need other teams to fuck up.

yeah, and that list didn't include fucking seattle.

don't think columbus/tfc draw matters for us. fire/revs draw....not sure what we wanted there anyway... chicago jumping us would be a nightmare
 
Chicago is in the west.

At this point you root for DC United to win, draws in eastern conference matches and losses vs western conference opponents.
