MLS - September 27 - Red Bulls (Away)
- Thread starter LionNYC
- Start date
great win.
ojeda keeps getting better. he had multiple times where he was dribbling under pressure and still did not lay it off. his confidence is growing and hopefully he starts finding the back of the net with more opportunities to play. jansen has to start him even with martinez healthy, right?
martins was a rock today and as much as shit as we give him for being a DP CB, he saved our butts a lot tonight. Still don't think he or any CB should be a DP, but he showed his worth tonight.
i am liking the vibe of the team as we go to philly next week. will be amazing to win in chester too.

He should be coach of the year in MLS.
This team that was screaming for reinforcements in April and May has completely taken off since the reinforcements arrived. We are sneakily one of the best teams in MLS right now and have a legitimate chance to go on a run.
Either Berhalter or the San Diego manager will get it.
Marito

Either Varas in SD or Sorensen in Vancouver. Maybe even Philly's coach. Berhalter is barely squeaking into playoffs with a more expensive roster than either of those 3
What a win.
The boys held on, but it was shakey-AF. RB second half was cutting through our flank like it was butter. That cross from the right into nobody marking forsberg... like 5 times.
Ojeda had his game of the season.
Martins had his game of the season.
We only give up that second goal bc I'm pretty sure Freese was concussed, I hope he's okay!
NY IS BLUE

Both are distinct possibilities. But I'm with ZYanksRule — I like our guy for it. It would have been a heck of a job to simply stop our regression this season, barely qualify for the playoffs, win a Wild Card and give a decent account of ourselves over Round One. But we're looking a lot better than that.
fixed it for you.
they are both going to raise to another level and lead us to the CUP!
No chance.
I'm now with Marito. SD is an expansion team with 50+ points. Philly has almost 30 more points this year than last. Vancouver has improved markedly. Pascal has done a tremendous job, but he will not win manager of the year.
I didn't say he would. I said I was with ZYanksRule, who said he should.
Ok, if we're going to be that pedantic, then there are other coaches that Marito listed who should win coach of the year more than Pascal does.
I'm still thrilled with the job he's doing.
his aerial game was really good tonight. his header on the 3rd goal was so clean and incredible save from coronel. luckily our guys were more alert than they were.
perea drives me nuts with his inconsistency sometimes but he was good tonight.
It's not pedantry (believe me, I hate it as much as anyone). Don't ascribe to me things I didn't say. I hate that even more.
Marito's list is a good one, though. And if you want to know who I think will win, it's Mikey Varas at San Diego. Taking an expansion team straight to the top of a conference is the kind of thing which is almost always good for hardware come awards time.
But I still like our guy for it. That's who I think should win. He hasn't just been successful; he's been transformative.
Good morning. We are the featured story on the MLS front page.
Two important notes:
We have now beaten NJ more times in MLS regular season play: 12-11.
When our stadium is done, it will be completed in our 13th season, in NEW YORK.
They moved into their cop-out NEW JERSEY stadium in their 15th season.

And exhaustion. Don’t forget that our guys had to battle that too. They looked so tired as the 2nd half drew to a close. They could barely keep up. Then when the fourth official flashed 10 minutes of stoppage…
What did people think of the collision with Freese? I was at a work event and only came home in the 75’. My kids told me it should have been a card, probably red.
When I looked at the replays, I couldn’t really tell anything. The angle was terrible, and I couldn’t find the point of contact.
He did have some studs showing, but not clear whether that matters.
