1: Well Jennifer got her wish with Saba playing on the left. But as soon as we put one of our more creative and dynamic players on the left, we played predominantly on the right. That was confounding especially when one of our best early chances came off the left.

2: We are not utilizing Thiago to full effect and he’s also not at his absolute best. Apart from that incredible ball he whipped in for GG he’s just not in possession in key dangerous areas where he can attract multiple defenders creating space for others. He’s drifting, trying to find the game.

3: Once again we give up a soft goal from a reset of play. In fairness, we’re really missing a 6’5” Norwegian in those situations but that’s no excuse. And once again we conceded immediately after conceding. We’re so easily exploited and teams know it.

4: Our one goal came off some quick direct counter play. Sure would be nice if we did that more often.

5: Gonzo is a really smart guy. He’s a student of the game. He’s very detail oriented. He knows every little detail about every opponent we face. It’s really impressive. But for unknown reasons, all of his knowledge is not translating to performance results and sooner rather than later it’s going to become untenable.
