I still don't understand why Clavijo keeps deploying Gomez as high as he does. It doesn't give Christian much opportunity to pop up out of nowhere from the midfield. And it means Cummings really needs Clark and Cooke to be pushed up to having some bodies to dump the ball off to. Seems like Tam and Cummings/Herc would be a better combination with Gomez having Gomes/Daimando/Labrocca/Pablo behind him to clean up things. Will the loss give him the impotence to push things this way?Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05237280803429555051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8249539192401757288.post-13894150969800107852008-04-20T13:33:00.000-06:002008-04-20T13:33:00.000-06:00So, what formation did coach come out with?

It was a painful call from my parents last night as they told me that it was quite possibly the worst Rapids game they have seen, and they have been going to at least half the games since the beginning.TalbotTrojanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02708603419263954316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8249539192401757288.post-39339623604502139232008-04-20T08:37:00.000-06:002008-04-20T08:37:00.000-06:00oh, and i forgot to mention that it seemed like th...oh, and i forgot to mention that it seemed like the wind was really messing up the communication. we sat in the bleachers and you could see that Herc and Omar were getting a little upset with each other. you couldn't hear anything down there on the field.<BR/><BR/>terry cooke had an off-night as well. at least Labrocca looked goodBMer916https://www.blogger.com/profile/07291623872967673351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8249539192401757288.post-71571000193262584992008-04-20T08:22:00.000-06:002008-04-20T08:22:00.000-06:00Clark was pretty poor last night, unfortunately, h...Clark was pretty poor last night, unfortunately, he just couldn't catch a break, and Christian Gomez seemed to be invisible<BR/><BR/>Maybe the wind played a part, the balls were moving quite a lot and we seem to struggle moving the ball up the field through short passes. Keel was great on defense but insisted in trying the long ball to Hercules and Omar/Tam and it just seemed like they struggle to control it<BR/><BR/>disappointing for sureBMer916https://www.blogger.com/profile/07291623872967673351noreply@blogger.com
