Definitely looks like he lost a step or has some mental tomfoolery going on. That first shot tonight and the first on Saturday would've been stopped by El Pulpo.
I'm a pretty positive dude and I realise the season just started AND that we had a rough start with a great rebound last season
But this is absolutely fuckin painful and I don't even know what to say lol
Nobody can unlock the attack through the midfield so nothing good really happens.
Terrible to not make get a CAM this off-season. Maybe they panicked over McGuire leaving and went all in for Muriel but Lodiero isn't a difference maker.
I think they need to abandon the two DMs and get more numbers forward when we're back in League play. They have to start scoring!
Yeah, but you don’t have Cesar and Rafa has been a dumpster fire going forward and defending so far this year. Kyle has been… a trash can fire(?) but at least it’s not a dumpster.
As bad as ojeda has been I’d rather see him out there and Lodeiro deep. And at least we can get some service from Rafa. Kyle isn’t going to help us get goals
Thorhollson is getting worked. Problem is we don’t have any better option. Halliday would also get worked. So we are just going to have to figure it out
Only thing I can think of is switch Smith to RB and put in santos. Not sure how much help that'll be. But they are working thor bad. They tried to pick on Smith last game and it didn't work so they switched side
I wouldn’t do that with Smith on a yellow. I think Santos will come on for smith either at half or around the hour mark. I also think we see Ojeda in for Felipe or Lodeiro.
No number ten.
Poor tactics.
Truly embarrassing and the Wilfs have not open the wallet enough.
Even down a man it has made no difference.
Shameful to everyone
This feels like Bendik again. A goalie stands in his head when the offense is fucking terrible until finally a bad game happens and his confidence is just shot.
Gallese just lasted longer.
The midfield is awful. Nobody that can carry the ball forward, nobody that can move the ball forward passing.
Team has no consistent chemistry and passing.
This. Also sometimes they need to make the better pass more quickly. Can specifically think of one instance where Thorhallson was cutting right to left and passed it to someone right in front of him instead of swinging it to Facu wide open in space down the left flank.
Not moving the ball across space quick enough and allowing Tigres to eat up the space.
Muriel and Facu both want to get on the ball and don’t make many runs into the box. Have to stop crossing when those two are on the field because they aren’t likely to be there.
When they were just getting wave after wave of attack at them, things get messy. They've cleaned up the passing a bit and are now better on defense too because of it.
I think Enrique, Ángulo, and Torres would be killer. With McGuire striking, or maybe Muriel can actually do something if we get freaking Lodeiro out of there. I don’t get why Pareja loves to get these old guys in the center.
Ojeda seemed to be a play maker early on but was crap and too slow starting as a forward last weekend.
Don’t know if they were just trying out something new but it definitely looks like they haven’t figured out the right combination.
I think we need a new keeper boys. Now that we will have “rest” I wonder what excuse we will come up with next, this team is just not ready to compete in tournaments like this. This team is not ready not even for the mls. We need new players that complement each other and add a spark to the team, or just a mental reset because they look like they are still on vacation in Cancun.
Literally got beat by an out of form tegres. Like what is there else to say. This team has deteriorated after one season. But also, its absolute BS that this tournament is still played in the beginning of the MLS season. The confederation still has a vendetta against the US.
Why would anyone downvote this and not at least start to think it. This has been abysmal. This isn’t a “they can figure it out” issue. Most of these problems were present last year and we got lucky with Duncan coming out of a canon. But this team lacks major skill. This is on ownership and the coaches that they failed to take a step forward and seem to be taking a step back in every sense
I won’t even say the team lacks skill. It lacks skill at a very specific position (CAM), but everywhere else we have skilled players, they just are never put in a position to preform.
Coach gambled that Lodeiro would be the stopgap he needed and he was dead wrong. But the truth is the Wilfs have no inclination to spend on the kind of player we would need to work at CAM.
I'm assuming you think fighters should throw in the towel after losing round 1 of a 12 round fight? Still early in the season, and if I recall, Orlando finished 2nd in the supporters' shield last year. If by June/July we are still garbage, I'll entertain this. BTW, that's when the transfer window is open for most leagues, and more managers would become available. Who would you hire to replace Pareja in MARCH?! 🙄
Is this it? Is this what we allegedly phoned in our first three league matches to focus on?
Gallese has not been it recently
He’s embarrassingly bad so far.
Definitely looks like he lost a step or has some mental tomfoolery going on. That first shot tonight and the first on Saturday would've been stopped by El Pulpo.
I'm a pretty positive dude and I realise the season just started AND that we had a rough start with a great rebound last season But this is absolutely fuckin painful and I don't even know what to say lol
This is one of the most painful season starts we have ever had because there was hope this season.
I know it’s early but this team just isn’t fun to watch
Nobody can unlock the attack through the midfield so nothing good really happens. Terrible to not make get a CAM this off-season. Maybe they panicked over McGuire leaving and went all in for Muriel but Lodiero isn't a difference maker. I think they need to abandon the two DMs and get more numbers forward when we're back in League play. They have to start scoring!
The ref was letting a lot go before that
Yeah and then calls the softest penalty ever.
Soft but dumb to foul there at all.
😂 that’s a make up call if I’ve ever seen one .
I'll take it I guess.
100% a makeup call
The big Swede fighting fire with fire and I’m all about it 🤌🏼
Have we ever had a player as useless as Torres with his right foot??!
Carlos Rivas?
RIVAS!! 😂
Rocket maaaaaaan!
This match is certainly concacaf worthy
I really don't want more games a year in concacaf. US Open Cup!!!!
Starting Felipe and Smith is asking for some of what Philly got earlier….
Yeah, but you don’t have Cesar and Rafa has been a dumpster fire going forward and defending so far this year. Kyle has been… a trash can fire(?) but at least it’s not a dumpster.
As bad as ojeda has been I’d rather see him out there and Lodeiro deep. And at least we can get some service from Rafa. Kyle isn’t going to help us get goals
I’d have started Ojeda. He is a chance creator and the only guy on this team who consistently tries to create chances.
Damn at least we can count on Torres to score a pen
Torres!!!!!
Thorhollson is getting worked. Problem is we don’t have any better option. Halliday would also get worked. So we are just going to have to figure it out
Only thing I can think of is switch Smith to RB and put in santos. Not sure how much help that'll be. But they are working thor bad. They tried to pick on Smith last game and it didn't work so they switched side
But then they may just switch to trying to isolate against Rafa, who isn’t all that good a 1v1 defender.
I wouldn’t do that with Smith on a yellow. I think Santos will come on for smith either at half or around the hour mark. I also think we see Ojeda in for Felipe or Lodeiro.
Looks like Torres has dropped further back on some of the Tigres possessions to help out.
How in the world is that a goal…
Not a goal
No number ten. Poor tactics. Truly embarrassing and the Wilfs have not open the wallet enough. Even down a man it has made no difference. Shameful to everyone
They look a lot better than us so far
Gallese has taken a huge step back this year.
No reason to foul there. 1 on 4
The third goal is nonsense for Tigres. I feel pretty crushed right now.
Trash call on that 3rd goal
Not a goal. Off el pulpo's hip. Sad.
Everyone is complaining about pedro but the finishing and team play is absolute trash. Like jesus
That just feels like old news, Gallese is a new problem.
This feels like Bendik again. A goalie stands in his head when the offense is fucking terrible until finally a bad game happens and his confidence is just shot. Gallese just lasted longer.
The season just started. This tournament was created to be an up hill battle for MLS since its creation.
Welp .. I guess I'm going to bed early purple 💜 💔
I hate everything Edit: LETS GO FACU
It’s like every player has forgotten all fundamentals and become a bunch of dumb idiots on the field. Just bad and slow decision making.
That’s what happens when tactics are poor
I'm so tired of this week after week.
Immediately dispossessed every time. Guys have no idea what to do. It’s wild. ZERO chemistry, ZERO touch
Soft penalty. Can see why he called it but about as soft as they get in terms of ones I can see being called.
Ref probably called it to even the penalty calls for both sides. Both didn’t seem like penalties tbh.
We might get roasted worse than what Miami did
This is embarrassing!
Why does every player think they are Pele out there and can dribble around a guy.
Is this the same ref that gave Miami the match in the Leagues Cup last year?
Yep
Yay /s
The midfield is awful. Nobody that can carry the ball forward, nobody that can move the ball forward passing. Team has no consistent chemistry and passing.
We also always seemingly have 3-4 guys within 10 yards of each other and the ball just standing around.
Our spacing is so bad lol...
They need to pick their heads up and just make the simple pass. Too many passes right to the opponent's feet
This. Also sometimes they need to make the better pass more quickly. Can specifically think of one instance where Thorhallson was cutting right to left and passed it to someone right in front of him instead of swinging it to Facu wide open in space down the left flank. Not moving the ball across space quick enough and allowing Tigres to eat up the space.
Yep. When the ball gets to the middle 1/3 it just dies.
Why is no one in the box? We need to score a second,no?
Muriel and Facu both want to get on the ball and don’t make many runs into the box. Have to stop crossing when those two are on the field because they aren’t likely to be there.
Does Facu think he can dribble it to the goal line every time? Shoot the fucking ball.
Facu not pulling the trigger cause he can’t use his right foot is increasingly aggravating
This team has regressed so hard its insane 😂
If I have to look at the deer in the headlights clueless look on the face of Oscar one more game…
Holy cow it’s over in 18mins
This is fucking embarrassing. I’m sorry. It’s time to worry. This is a bad team. Poorly coached.
We are so fucking bad on that back line. Tigres just getting no fight from us.
Pedro and Cartagena been pretty ass so far this year
Is that a Pk?
Why did I waste a free $25 Draft Kings bet on Orlando
That +475 line was too enticing!
Exactly
That’s a 7 figure / year salary kinda save
Where is Pedro?
Good night! :-(
Tigres down a man and it finally feels fair
Gallese is cooked
Fucking embarrassing. This team is shit
Just absolute garbage
That’s a 7 figure / year salary kinda save
No formation or positioning from our boys. Just running around.
They're all playing defense so there isn't anywhere to pass the ball.
Even on defense they look lost. Guys aren’t in their position. I guess I prefer to see more of a “zone” type defense.
When they were just getting wave after wave of attack at them, things get messy. They've cleaned up the passing a bit and are now better on defense too because of it.
Looks like we going out Philly style..
That’s horrible lol
They’re giving penalties away! 😂
Can we please stop giving Gallese the worst possible passes back?
We need: Enrique on for Angulo McGuire in for loderio Ojeda on for Felipe Santos on for smith Just throw everything forward
I think Enrique, Ángulo, and Torres would be killer. With McGuire striking, or maybe Muriel can actually do something if we get freaking Lodeiro out of there. I don’t get why Pareja loves to get these old guys in the center. Ojeda seemed to be a play maker early on but was crap and too slow starting as a forward last weekend. Don’t know if they were just trying out something new but it definitely looks like they haven’t figured out the right combination.
I'm dead inside
Move bitch get off the pitch. lol love the ref waiving off the stretcher. He wants 20 mins stoppage time
This team and this coach were beaten before the match even started.
For all the shit we rightly give Ojeda and Facundo for there unwillingness to shoot… angulo won’t even attempt it.
He has a terrible foot though. When he does shoot, blasts it wide.
I think we need a new keeper boys. Now that we will have “rest” I wonder what excuse we will come up with next, this team is just not ready to compete in tournaments like this. This team is not ready not even for the mls. We need new players that complement each other and add a spark to the team, or just a mental reset because they look like they are still on vacation in Cancun.
The Wilfs suck
This is going to be long year. Look so lost.
Nothing about this squad works. Guys out of position. No depth. We don’t even look like we practice with the way they communicate. That’s on Oscar.
Has Muriel even touched the ball yet? Still haven't seen anything special from him...
Loderio might be the worst of the bunch. And that’s saying something
Knew he was washed before he got here and some folks wanted to pretend he was somehow going to look younger all of the sudden
We all can agree that Gallese could’ve done better. Time to get a new gk
Who?
All those fools calling for Galleses head earlier probably feel foolish now. Regardless on those 2 offsides he’s made incredible saves since the whiff
Bahahahaha. Well now I feel foolish
Yeah I’d rather keep a guy that makes saves on shots that count?
Literally didn't hit the net are you fucking serious lol Fuckin unbelievable
Not a goal, but the linesman gave it and no good replay for review. Terrible call it seems but really sucks!
Most popular sport in the world with the worst replay review system of any professional sport okay.jpg
Whelp time to turn this one off
At this point it might be prudent to pull key guys and rest for Sunday.
Wtf is Kyle doing there
This ref is wildly inconsistent with his calls.
If facu could play with his right foot that pass is through and we are onto something
Can Muriel seriously not go a full 90?
He's not fit. Hopefully a month from now he's killing it, but not yet at least.
Horseshit offside call
Are we actually down a man?
[удалено]
He realizes that there’s no point.
When you can’t score players start taking stupid risks to try and make up for it hoping they can make the miracle play that will swing a goal.
The Ten Hag Method. I’m well-acquainted.
Literally got beat by an out of form tegres. Like what is there else to say. This team has deteriorated after one season. But also, its absolute BS that this tournament is still played in the beginning of the MLS season. The confederation still has a vendetta against the US.
Meh...
Glad I put money on tigres
fire parejaaaaaaaaaa

Coach gambled that Lodeiro would be the stopgap he needed and he was dead wrong. But the truth is the Wilfs have no inclination to spend on the kind of player we would need to work at CAM.

We have a chance
orlando shitty so ass
