    Gleeson has played well every match he has been in. Yesterday was first time he was consistently challenged but he has been very assertive in his decision making. None of that, 'should I or shouldn't I go after the ball' that often leads to fuck ups and ugly goals.

    People are angry and fighting after that collapse also. Kei pissed and not holding back about the argument with Higuain about taking the PK when he was sitting on a hat trick

    #CrewSC Kamara on the PK argument: "Come on. You have two goals and you’re going for a hat trick. You have a player that has never scored...
    "...a hat trick in his career. What do you do? Do you give it to him? Or do you take it? I got tricked. He told me he wanted to give it to..
    "...Ethan (Finlay). So I said no problem, let Ethan score. Ethan says no, you can have it. Then (Pipa) says no, I get to take it...
    "That’s selfish. That’s not teammates. That’s selfishness"

    #CrewSC Kamara on if he has had issues with Pipa in past: "No, because I really haven't had to depend on Pipa at all. How long have I...
    "...been here? How many goals have I scored? How many have come from his assists? One, maybe two. So I don’t depend on him. I depend on...
    "...Ethan and my outside backs to pass me ball."

    #CrewSC Kamara on what he said to Higuain during PKargument: "Do I have to tell him (I'm sitting on a hat trick)? The whole stadium sees...
    "...it. Did you see it? What would you have done?"

    Kamara said he admires Kaka/Larin (Orlando) and Piatti/Drogba (Montreal) for the way they "connect."
    Kamara: "But how many times have (Higuain and I) connected? I haven’t worried about it because I’m scoring goals. But when it comes to...
    "something like that, I really have to get mad about it. I’m really upset. Period. Done."

    Kamara indicated Higuain kept him from winning Golden Boot last year, given lack of assists. And Higuain took all PKs last year. #CrewSC

    Wait what? Kaka is regularly seen yelling or gesturing at Larin in a manner that can only be described as what the hell are you doing you big dummy at least 3 times a match. Get what he is saying but that relationship is not all rainbows and butterflies.

    Yeah I love Kei but you're the asshole if your biggest concern after blowing a 4-1 lead is that you didn't get your first hat trick when someone else took the penalty (when he's the guy who always takes the teams penalties and he made it, not like he missed)

    He played lights out....minus a 5 minute stretch that hurt.

    Of course when your defense gives up 13 shots on goal (26 overall) eventually something like that is going to happen.

    Midweek game so highly likely. We'll see if Vermes goes through with his threats and sits everyone that hasn't been producing. I'd like to see them play both forwards in a 442 or 352 to see how that works. Vermes' system and sportings roster don't work at all.

    @Shinguardian (kind of a douche but always has an opinion):

    Crew won trade even if just to get out of a 3-year deal to an old, petulant DP. Young DP + cash? Like finding a Baileys in your Guinness.

    Surprised that CBus didn't get one of Davies, Agudelo or Bunbury back.

    Kei does fit in at the top of NE's 4-2-3-1 and NE has struggled to score.
