“I thought some players gave everything they had. There were other players that didn’t give everything they had. More so, I think a couple guys gave up in the game,” Vermes said. “I don’t think we had enough on the field unfortunately to get the job done — I say that now, not thinking that going in. “You’re not going to win a game when you have certain players that just give up or don’t put the effort in like they have to. That’s the result you get.” Vermes declined to name specific players, but the next couple of weeks should provide a better insight to those in which he was referring. Because in a follow-up, Vermes was asked what the response will entail to the players he deemed without full endeavor. He responded forcefully. “They’re going to find themselves very, very, very, very, very far away from the team and trying to get back in,” he said. “They’re going to have to do some real proving. “It’s not just my evaluation. It’s other players’ (evaluations) as well. Our team and our club is not built on that type of attitude. That won’t be tolerated.” Read more here: https://www.kansascity.com/sports/mls/sporting-kc/article215146560.html#storylink=cpy
Omg @ Johnny. Also of note, Tim is drunk af. Pipé is perfection. Daniel is expecting a flood. What’s up with Khirys boots?
So I’m guessing we add someone like Plata/C Ramirez/Adi and claim it to be a huge deal then go on about Evans and Felipe coming off injury is like adding a new DP and a new TAM player.
Wasn’t on the injury report at all. Sit him tonight and it’s a nice little 17 day break for him. Considering he’s played like 14 months straight it’s not a bad idea.
And before any bloggers run with the idea, there’s no way Johnny was one of the guys Vermes blasted for lacking effort. The dudes ran 24/7 in every game he’s played for us.
Twellman jut said it’s an MCL. Fuck it all. Also Medranda got a new MRI Friday because he’s not progressing in his rehab.
65% possession, 4 corners, 8 shots. ZERO SHOTS ON GOAL!!! But as we all heard Twellman say “Don’t be surprised when Vermes adds defense help but not a #9.” We need BOTH YOU TWAT.
Pathetic fucking team. 10 day break and they’re second to every loose ball. Can’t clear a fucking ball tonsave their life. No fucking clue what to do in the 18. Can’t wait to hear the off-season promises this time.
BUT WE DONT NEED SOMEONE WHO CAN FINISH!!! We brought fucking Croizet to play a false nine chasing the game for fucks sake.
Ike I Fucking love you but own up dude. Attending Jan camp broke you. We all see it. Just come out and say it.
Look at who’s he’s brought in the past couple offseasons when he focuses on the roster. Ilie, Gerso, Latif, Johnny, Felipe. He’s pretty damn nails. I can’t think of a single summer window signing he’s made that’s been good. He never wanted to be a coach and if it wasn’t for NP telling him he was a fuck up he never would of been. I don’t know. We’re just shit.
Portland won again. As of now we are behind FCD, LAFC, PTFC. But I have no faith in us outplaying LAG, Hou, Minn, Sea down the stretch. IF we do make the playoffs it’s looking like a 5th straight year without a home playoff match.
Former La Masia kid. Been playing for Celia de Vigo the past 5 years. Transfermarket says he’s mostly a CB but can/has played Dmid as well. They have him at a $3 million evaluation. Looks like he only made 8 LaLiga starts last year so we better not be coming close to that number. They list strengths as on ball defending and short passing. Weaknesses as positional discipline and aerial duels. Should shore up CB and between him and Evans we should be able to spell Ilie if we need to. Still need LB unless they got good news with Medrandas MRI but Vermes voice sounded like his season might be over when he brought it up. Need B2B/attacking mid depth. And obviously a 9. Still not holding out much hope. Will probably sign another La Masia midfielder cast off and call it quits.
Could could tell by the way Vermes was skirting the question this was coming: Was thinking a 3-5-2 with new guy/Ike/Bes - Jimmy/Roger/Ilie/Pipe/Zeus - Johnny/Daniel Would be interesting.
Salloi has to be crashing that back post. I think we need to sit hit for a couple weeks to get his head and legs back. He just disappears for 30+ mins at a time.
We’re up a man. Houston has one of, if not THE, worst defenses in the league. I have no faith in us getting a goal.
