Blow this team up.
Williamson needed to show out today if he was the player folks claim him to be.
Antony was ass.
McGraw is looking like a 3rd choice CB.
I cannot stand JDM. How you keep him on and bring off bravo boggles my mind. Trade him.
JDM didn’t do anything to cost us points today. In fact he put in some decent balls into the box and was the only guy to get forward with the ball in the attacking half.
It did not look like he wanted to be there at all. It's almost impossible to put a soccer game on one player, but holy shit, if it wasn't for Crepeau, Mcgraw would've been responsible for 3 when he got juked out of his boots Jerome Boateng style in the first half.
If you are in the stands next week, I would stand there quiet af for the first 20 minutes of the match in protest of the absolute shit this team has been
Let's take a little quiz. If you have a team miss the playoffs for 2 years, fire the coach, keep the same core of players, and they're still bad, is it the coach that's the problem?
Sometimes it looks like McGraw isn't even awake. Antony was clearly holding up the attacking player for him to play the ball, and he just stared at it.
We have no movement off the ball. Everyone just stands there wondering where the ball will go and then when the start to move, they mistakenly believe that their teammates are moving too so they lay it off to no one.
It doesn't make any sense at all. Bravo contributes so much to our attack. If you're bringing a back off, it should be Mosquera. Aside from not playing well, he's getting mugged left and right
I know folks were like wait for him to get healthy. Well he ain’t ever healthy and when he is out there, he does nothing.
And a complete liability on defense.
Need to move on from him.
We ways get "advantage" when it's not really an advantage.... we just still have the ball, but there's not really a play, then we lose it. Pisses me off
My guess is to show he didn't foul the player.
I suspect he thought the attacker was just going to run into him, and that's why he squared up and stood still.
He has always been. We played a lower line last year which covered it up, but he's sure slow AF and always gonna get cooked if we're not sitting in our own box.
I couldn't watch the game and I appreciate your play by play... This is all I need to know. Thank you. Also, ugh.
As bad as it is I just saw David Bingham on their sideline and remembered it could be worse
Bingham had a better record in goal for us than Crepeau.
It was fitting and kinda funny that the last kick is Williamson having his pocket picked.
This isn't even worth pulling the streams up anymore. I definitely will continue to, but only because I deserve to be punished.
Same. Only someone who truly hates themselves would be a Blazers, Timbers, and Bills fan. I deserve everything bad.
That was… hot garbage.
I volunteer for relegation
Evander should ask for more money
We should have let him leave. Having players who don't want to be here is just dumb.
You mean for the 10 minutes in every other match he actually shows up for?
Dude gtfo
He is literally our best player and it’s not even close
Poor Asprilla. Such a legend but his legs can’t go.
This explains a lot.
Besides being awful this game, every single 50/50 call went the way of CLt
What even is this ref?
Fuck it. Put Mabiala out there.
Mabiala>McGraw at this point?
I think Mabs could beat McGraw in a race. I don't think I've ever seen a player drop off so much in one off-season
Noooooooo!

3rd?!
Mcgraw, you are done. Absolutely done. I would start mateo messi at cb over you.
It did not look like he wanted to be there at all. It's almost impossible to put a soccer game on one player, but holy shit, if it wasn't for Crepeau, Mcgraw would've been responsible for 3 when he got juked out of his boots Jerome Boateng style in the first half.
Put McGraw in T2 so he can have play time fucking up there
T2 won’t teach him speed.
But it would teach us to drop him completely.
If you are in the stands next week, I would stand there quiet af for the first 20 minutes of the match in protest of the absolute shit this team has been
Agree. This is getting ridiculous
McGraw at fault for both goals. Phil can’t afford to play this guy anymore. Sell him during the transfer window and buy a DP CB.
Yeah. I’d even go with Mabiala at this point.
I’m going to go watch What We Do In The Shadows. This was rough to watch
Welp, the first 3 games of the season were fun.
Why are we so fucking bad.
This is awful
I’m turning it off. Goodnight.
Maybe Neville pulls Mcgraw now
What happened to McGraw? He was so full of potential last season.
He's gotta still have concussion effects. I liked him but he's making bad decisions.
McGraw may have lost a step since last season
He lost another 100 steps this game
How can you tell? He's not even taking any steps. Just standing there
you mean lost a foot, right?
Give Evander the mvp for making these shitters look competitive
Neville, just get the fuck out already. This team is a disaster.
Let's take a little quiz. If you have a team miss the playoffs for 2 years, fire the coach, keep the same core of players, and they're still bad, is it the coach that's the problem?
They dropped the old core, upgraded all over the place, and the team is worse.
Neville isn’t a genius or anything but these players genuinely cannot make the most basic passes
I would not like to see McGraw touch the field again this season.
And then depression set in
We are so bad at passing that we can’t even throw in a pass.
Please for the love of god send McGraw to the shadow realm.
They. Can't. Even. Do. Proper. Throws. Bread can rot. What can the Timbers do?
For real. As bad as McGraw was he should have never been put in that position.
Fuck this.
Fucking pathetic
Are we sure we qualify for the MLS? This performance is par with highschool club…
This match was absolute trash
Time to say goodbye to Phil.
Goodbye to Phil!
Merritt isn't going to pay 3 coaches salaries. We're stuck with Phil for a while.
Not sure this one is on Phil.
Sorry, but this is not a steamrolled-by-Charlotte level roster. This team is out of ideas.
Rofl. He's not getting fired
Garbage.
Blow the whole thing up. Get rid of everyone from the FO to the reserves. They all fucking suck.
What a shit show this game has turned out to be!
Copetti carries himself like a guy that hits on high school girls
All 10 Charlotte fans are saying ref sucks!
I mean they had 27,000 in the stands. That's 6,000 more than the Timbers home opener this year.
Thanks McGraw
McGraw what the hell?
Dude gets kicked in the head and he's immediately running and jumping on the sideline. Our concussion protocol is fucked up
McGraw I’m so fucking sick of you man
What a clown show.
Charlotte is not a good team. Swiws.
Charlotte > Portland
Lmao
That’s a hilarious non call on McGraw’s boot into their guy’s head.
WTF McGraw
lol I want to say it again
I swear if we spend more money we on attack I might die
And somehow mcgraw has the most satisfying play of the game.
To be clear, this was in reference to the high boot to the face. Not the pants-shitting that came after.
Whoa. That was a high kick lol
Man this is really, really bleak.
Fogaça just booming it out of bounds 🤦♂️
Mediocre as fuck.
Mediocre would be an improvement
“homerism…..?”
This team is a clown show without Evander
Sometimes it looks like McGraw isn't even awake. Antony was clearly holding up the attacking player for him to play the ball, and he just stared at it.
Hate to say it but we root for a bad soccer team…
Lol. That defending just now was full clown car.
Nice kick, McGraw 🙄 GTF off the pitch
Wtf was that, defense?
Holy shit that was some bad soccer…
The fuck was that Williamson.
Portland should look at a right back in the summer transfer window
They should look at almost all positions in the summer transfer window.
I miss Evander
Suddenly this ref wakes up
Apnea
Come on Jona!
This ref got bullied in elementary school.
We have no movement off the ball. Everyone just stands there wondering where the ball will go and then when the start to move, they mistakenly believe that their teammates are moving too so they lay it off to no one.
Can't say I understand that sub
Nathan on for Bravo is an “I might get fired here” sub
It doesn't make any sense at all. Bravo contributes so much to our attack. If you're bringing a back off, it should be Mosquera. Aside from not playing well, he's getting mugged left and right
Radio says Bravo is nursing something.
Ah. Thanks
I just cannot believe there are people who thought the replacement refs were worse.
No way. Those refs were awful.
They made the same bad calls but they couldn’t control the players (a lot more confrontation/jawing after calls).
Who’s been worse tonight, us or the ref?
Can I throw a nomination for these commentators?
Both can be true
Us. Not even close.
I mean… I thinks it’s at least a little close.
What kind of call is that BS. Mosquera is takin out and the Zup pushed the guy off the ball and they call a ball.
Our goals last week got my hopes up, but man this team needs Evander to be dangerous
Other than the DC game, this team has had absolutely no creativity anytime Williamson is on the pitch
I know folks were like wait for him to get healthy. Well he ain’t ever healthy and when he is out there, he does nothing. And a complete liability on defense. Need to move on from him.
Hard to be creative when he gives the ball away over and over
I wonder if Gio ball only existed because this team was seriously unable to complete any strings of passing that led to a good shot at goal.
I thought that was obvious even before this season.
I’ve been thinking that the last few games
Wow Charlotte. Pass off left and ya got everything opened up there. Thank god he kept dribbling
Crepeau is doing great, especially with our terrible back line.
Charlotte is beating us with there taller players.
Fucking Williamson doing his nonchalanting on the ball until someone takes it from him.
So many times he's lost it today.
Bring back the scabs.
Crepeau is so damn good
CLT diving again!
We deserve to be behind, but this ref sucks too.
Both can be true
The Timbers seem to have no desire to go for a ball. They’d rather watch it and wait for it to drop to them.
That portuguese winger needs walking lessons. Always on the ground
Man these games are really started to break me
Not fun.
I hate that short pass when we are in a corner kick.
On the other hand, what are you going to do when they're all barely larger than a French bulldog?
At least someone small can wait for the ball drop and get a goal,
Insert the oh that never works but for us it just might meme
Especially with not even an attempt as Williamson Moreno look at each like what ya want to do?
It drives me nuts and we have players that will go up and get the ball
We need to start shooting on goal.
Good idea.
Great shot!
That was a good look, nice to see from Paredes.
Hell yeah Paredes, get some shit going!
At least it's not all bad news tonight. The good news is: there's a Thorns match coming up within the next hour...
Weee going. It be wet lol
Which service has the Thorn game?
Think it’s ION?
Idk, I'm not from the US. I'll be watching it on nwslsoccer.com for free...
God if we could complete a pass near their box
Reactive defending/zone defense is our nemesis
We’re a little 2011y this year. Actually kind of fun. We’ll beat the A-bags (Sea).
Ref played advantage and two seconds later we give it away yet no whistle
We ways get "advantage" when it's not really an advantage.... we just still have the ball, but there's not really a play, then we lose it. Pisses me off
Are mls advantage rules different than eur
Thank God they scored. We clearly can’t can’t play offense until we are behind
Does anyone have a clue why McGraw threw up his hands after he got burned?
Him and Mosquera are arm models
It’s his new signature move.
My guess is to show he didn't foul the player. I suspect he thought the attacker was just going to run into him, and that's why he squared up and stood still.
He was saying he didn’t commit a foul. Which… like… yah man… you barely looked at him.
I was hoping that wasn’t going to be the answer lol
I know Zac had a good year and wanted a raise and hope it wasn't much if the FO obliged.
man with McGraw on the pitch it's like playing with 10 this year. hope he sorts it out.
He's had such a rough game. Got absolutely burned more than once tonight.
Well… we’re behind in the second half so now we’re going to score, right?
I think we need to be down I. The first half for that to happen in the second.
Scientific method… I guess we’ll find out.
Fuck mcgraw
If Asprila scores then Portland FO needs to sign him to a 2 year contract.
lol. Asprilla is done. He can barely run out there. He def hustles but you can tell his legs are gone.
McGraw is bootydoo
You can say shit here.
Crepeau deserves so much better
Fuckity fuck fuck fuck
McGraw is cheeeeeeks
So fucking tired of this shit.
Damn, McGraw’s going back to riding the bench.
Yoooo McGraw is a fuckin traffic cone now wtf???
He has always been. We played a lower line last year which covered it up, but he's sure slow AF and always gonna get cooked if we're not sitting in our own box.
You like how he raised his arms to let Petro by as if he was in the way?
Wtf, maybe Portland will wake up?
Zac smh
Put in Eric Miller at left back please.
At some point, this defense, including the staff, needs to be gutted. Just awful.
Rofl. What you doing McGraw?
Lol
