It could be fun this year for once.

I missed the game yesterday as I was boarding but I thought Rey was fantastic last week. Definitely my pick of the players not "designated". I have my tickets for a season ticket syndicate I went on for 5 matches this year. Thankfully my first game isn't till May as it is still way too cold out.

My opinion of Rey differs to yours

He makes good runs into dangerous areas, but, he just won't pass or can't see the pass?

Commentators said the ball is glued to his feet, that's not always a good thing IMO, maybe let ya team play too ehh. He can only get better I supose.

They need to start playing as a team and pushing some passes around.

Too reliant on individuals so far.

Raise the tempo and raise the game.

That was a fairly accomplished performance given that they were missing a couple of key players.

They actually defend and chase the ball well they just need to improve their passing.

Bradley would be a good acquisition for many Premier League teams. Really top drawer.

I'm pretty sure thats the same throughout the MLS. They can do the grunt work okay but when it comes to putting a few passes together and a deadly final pass it is lacking.

Vancouver were frustrating.. as much as I want to shout at the referee.. you are always taught to play to the whistle! Unbeaten start to the season is over :(

Wow a win away at the Crew, with 1/4 of the team sick and suspended. What a result !!! :thumbsup:

Anyone see the highlights from the Portland v Seattle game? Were some nice finishes and saves going on throughout, looked to be a great game to be at.

Getting into the MLS thing. I thought the Montreal- New York game before the Toronto one was very good.

I like the fact that Montreal are bottom of the Eastern :D

A 4-4 result in a derby game (one in which the fans actually get involved) is always a good promo for the league!
