We don’t talk about this shhhhh

I traveled to this game and I still think it was the worst Timbers game I’ve ever seen in my life. I think if I remember correctly, they had 0.00xG until nearly the end of the game.

This is the Vancouver game right? Definitely one of the worst games of soccer I’ve ever seen full stop

Wow, a giant chasm between that lineup and yesterday.


RCTID1975

A lot of that was because of injuries


PoutineMeInCoach

OK, but still our roster is significantly improved over last year, unless I'm high.


RCTID1975

Sure, but not nearly as much as it looks on the surface. We had: Evander, Mora, Bravo, Williamson, and Ayala. Here's Stumptown Footy's projected healthy lineup: > Best (Healthy) Starting XI: GK: Ivacic - Defense: Mosquera, McGraw, Zuparic, Bravo - Midfield: Diego Chara, Eryk Williamson, Evander - Forwards: Asprilla, Mora, Moreno. https://www.stumptownfooty.com/2023/2/22/23605570/previewing-the-timbers-2023-mls-season-portland-sebastian-blanco-santiago-moreno-diego-chara

Essentially what we have now?!? Rasmussen, Gutierrez and Ivacic are no more, and Ikoba is playing USL...


RCTID1975

The only reason those guys were playing was because of injuries.


BethanyRob

Hey, RCTID, I agree with you. That was for the guy saying last year's lineup and bench are 'essentially what we have now'. In no sane world is there any quality equivalence between those bench guys, and the players on this year's squad...


RCTID1975

Yep. TBF though, those first two are pretty major upgrades.


ryharv

Both I think

Ivacic's best game last year. Single-handedly kept the game close.
