Five Takes On The Five Stripes
Sports:Soccer
1: We continue to have problems defensively on the left. Shoot, we continue to have problems defensively all around. The back three are constantly pulled out of position.
2: Pity is not showing his quality. He attempted a number of difficult passes and they’re not coming off. It’s like he sets his sights on the harder options but isn’t up to the task. Pity just keeps trying to do too much. He needs to keep it simple. There were times when there was no pressure on him and he skied balls and made glaring errant passes.
3: We LET Columbus play their system. Their high press in the first half was very effective. Columbus looked comfortable all night. We weren’t disruptive. We weren’t threatening. We looked very passive. In the first half we had about 2 free kicks and maybe one other look at goal. That was it.
4: We came out with more urgency in the first 15-20 of the second half but what good is urgency if you don’t have any flow? We didn’t build up any sort of attack. There were a few individual performances that were ok but it’s really hard to talk about those when the entire unit didn’t perform, AT ALL.
5: I can’t believe I’m saying this.....I agree with Taylor Twellman. But it’s not even that we look like we are playing with a man down, it looks we have 11 guys that haven’t bought into a system, if there is one. I saw no heart or desire to go out and give ourselves a chance tonight.
