Yes, Celar should do better there, but a little tricky getting caught in his feet. My bigger issue is he has had at least two headers in recent games that just have to be goals. [Post edited 1 Oct 21:35]

Was charting this myself. Sorta unbelievable. The information vacuum here will only spur conspiracy theorists to think they aren’t fully aligned behind the scenes. Limited Marti availability for these types of fan engagement opportunities, making the new game model guy available for interviews rather than Marti, some curious Marti comments during the summer about recruitment, etc. |

On a different note, for supposedly wanting to play a possession-based style, I think we have only had the majority of possession in one or two of our league matches so far… |

It really is a roll of the dice every game on which Colback we are getting. Some games he is so important in providing stability and linking play…then other games he just fouls, throws his hands up when he doesn’t get the ball right to his feet or a man doesn’t make a run, and gives the ball away. |

JCS obviously jumps out. But no Morrison either. And I assume “Morgan” is Kieran who joined the dev squad from Tottenham I believe in the spring…I guess we see what Hevertton is made of today.. |

Great listen, as always. On the transparency front, and not to pile on, but a couple MLS folks noted online that with the way MLS transfer window and registration works, Cannon would have needed to be without contract since as far back as mid-August. Seems like we actually parted ways on August 14. Again, weird, but this one is obviously thorny. |

I imagine this is nothing more than a much bigger opportunity that was too big to turn down. While NBA operates with a salary cap, there isn’t really a limit to what teams can invest in other areas to gain a competitive advantage. Huge staffs of data and performance analysts. But it is interesting given the comment about him being more involved than just the health side with QPR and to leave after a year. |

Was coming to post this. Had wondered if maybe we would go in for him again as cover, since like you said, we had been linked with him across multiple windows. Hadn’t realized he got as far as a medical previously. |

Man, we have to take our chances. Dembele needs to put that first one away. I also don’t get Lloyd continuing to be picked over Kolli (unless Kolli is going on loan tonight). I like Lloyd, but think Kolli offers more. While Kolli has given it away a few times this season, Lloyd does not look a natural dribbling on that wing. [Post edited 30 Aug 20:33]

On the transparency front, it is such a contrast to American sports leagues where contract length and amount are public common knowledge. I assume it is due to the relative power of the player unions and collective bargaining agreements governing those leagues. Though one needs to have a phd to understand some of the salary cap and luxury tax rules in these leagues, it does help fans understand team building concepts. |

I thought Cellar was unlucky to not get a goal on that shot he had…pretty well-struck and a good save. From what I’ve seen so far this summer, Kolli is ahead of Lloyd for me on the depth chart. With Chair and Anderson likely out a little while, I wonder if it means neither get loaned out. Ideally both would get League One loans from my view. |

Granted two tough opponents to start the season, but we were all hoping to carry the Marti momentum on from second half of last season. But there are definitely concerns…defense hasn’t been as solid as second half of last season, our midfield has truly been overrun, and with Anderson surely joining Chair on the sidelines for a bit, our creativity is even more barren. I was opposed to bringing Hayden back, but now think we may need another body in there, even though him, field, colback, and Varane all seem somewhat similar players to me. On a positive, Dembele looks great, and I assume he slots into the 10 now with Anderson out going forward. |
