MidWeek 9 Open Thread


Crew at Red Bull - 5 PM ESPN 2 - Tonight the Columbus Crew visit  ew York Red Bull Arena in a match of the two Eastern Conference leaders. The Crew have been as dangerous as ever on the set play, and Red Bull this season nearly matches them. Read the preview from the New York side, or visit their game thread.

Los Angeles Galaxy at FC Dallas - 5:30 PM - Los Angeles plays their first without their dynamic duo, and do so against a team that is capable of scoring goals in bunches.This is the first opportunity for the pack to catch up to the LA side, and there may even be 5,000 people who get to see it.

The defense for Red Bull is giving up gifts to the Crew side that has 4 non-starters on the pitch.

How do you solve a problem like Los Angeles?

How do you stop them? They lose their goalscorer and the best player in in MLS (this is not the same person), and they still win.

I may not have been sure about what really did interest me, but I was absolutely sure about what didn't.

NY luck seems to have run out

They are finally getting results they deserved earlier in the year. Backe says that was the best game they’ve played… but they didn’t look that great or much of a threat to me. Even with those two shots off the back post, I didn’t see much. They are probably the 2nd best team in the east but this is more of what I expected from them. Crew are looking good though.

LA was pretty defensive I think so they didn’t really look that dangerous from what I watched. I think Dallas totally dropped the ball on attack. If they could have had some better chances they could probably have beaten the LA defence. Really don’t think LA is as invincible as they’ve seemed so far… I think most teams have been underperforming against them and they are just on top of their game. Especially the case with the Sounders against LA….

Los Angeles had the 10th hardest strength of schedule to start the season

They enter a tougher stretch, right at the same time as they lose players for the World Cup. Playing at Dallas should have been a draw, and is likely their easiest match before the break.

Seattle has a decent shot at 10 points in their four before the break. LA already has 3 …
