And now I can see why Saunders always gets beat far post...
It wasn't just Shelton - anyone else notice Villa get incredibly pissed off with Saunders in the second half after he botched a clearance and gifted it to Toronto? So pissed, in fact, that we saw the return of 'static, hands on hips on the halfway line' David Villa, which is my least favourite incarnation of our beloved captain.
Glad you mentioned this. I thought was the only one feeling this way. I felt the same way about the mood as dusk fell. It was somber and somewhat boring. I really missed City Beats this past Sunday.
. Last season I would get to YS 2-3 hours before games started and it was great that as soon as I got off the BX6 bus , I would hear them playing their stuff with passion and enthusiasm as the local crowd of the neighborhood dancing, clapping and cheering to the beat of their drums. too bad they been relegated to a few minutes during halftime. Some folks in this forum criticized them. I loved them. They added festivity and Brazilian Carnival atmosphere on game days that passers by would ask me what was going on.
I truly missed City Beats. During the second goal it was only about 20 secs that they played and it made the goal more festive. Changes are always seen as good. In this case not so, with the draw its was a somber way to end a happy Sunday
Yup. I really think Villa should have buried that. I think his dink was a casual shot because his team was up 2. I don't think he loops that one if the game is tied.
Did anybody else notice Pirlo getting repeatedly pissed at Saunders for not immediately rolling the ball to him when he was 5ft away? He had to point at the ground to show where he wanted it at his feet, and yet Saunders would hesitate to give it to him. I've never seen Pirlo visibly agitated at a teammate and yet he was completely frustrated a few times.
I don't blame Villa for thinking it was going to be a walk in the park, because getting a third there would've been the nail in the coffin, but I do blame him for being to lazy on the chip - he needed to bury it and crush their morale.
Yup. I mean giving up your near post is a cardinal sin but you don't have to stand right in front of it. Smh.
He's not even guarding the near post - he's literally protecting those water bottles outside of the netting. That goal is all on him.
Khiry is soft and he went into a shell after being yelled at. Some people react to being yelling at and others need encouragement... Khiry folds and isn't the firey competitor Villa is. He's too timmid and I think being embarrassed like that shook his confidence.

I bet that's some good ass water
I laughed when the announcer said Villa after we did, felt like an episode of Dora the Explora in the best way
I still feel pissy too, Don't hold it against our beloved Captain mara-Villa. All that hair must be adding weight and slowing down Saunders
Take out T99 and put Bravo behind Pirlo.
4-1-3-2
Trust me will cause damage! If nycfc can keep teams to under 1.5 goals per game average we will make the playoffs. Villa and Mendoza will gel and excel together.
That said, I hope that Villa also learns from this. Maybe PV talks to him or something. I know Villa is a fiery competitor, and wears his emotions on this sleeves. But some players react to yelling and some don't. Khiry apparently does not.
Now, I'm not holding anything against Villa here. But there is some room for Villa to grow from that from a captain perspective.
Ehhh Khiry needs to nut up. This is a professional sport not some u-14 tournament. He made a poor decision and an even poorer shot. You learn, you move on, and hopefully next time he makes that pass, we get an easy goal...and his emotions remain in tact.
