tyson-wahl Stories - Sounder At Heart
A closer look at the week that was
Before we jump headlong into analysis and preview of this week's match with the Columbus Crew, I thought it would be useful to take a closer look at last week's pair of disappointing results. Specifically, I'd like to take a look at the passing in the two games. As was pointed out at several points...
Wahl Re-signs - Sounders Roster Battle gets Fierce
With the announcement of who is traveling, who is staying, who is back at school, and who is injured the re-signing of Tyson Wahl via "free agency" complicates things a little bit. It means the club has 21 on the Senior Roster and 2 on the Developmental Roster. Now if one assumes that the roster...
Discovery Signings; How the Sounders will get to 30 players
In Sigi's post draft conference call he said that he expects 28-30 players in camp. The Sounders are currently at 21 players on roster with Tyson Wahl as an unsigned Free Agent. They just drafted 3 young men who will compete, and last year's infrequently used players Fucito and Neagle will back in...
Leo Gonzalez - Answering the Left Back Dilemma
When the season started we were all surprised that Zach Scott was the starting left back. A role and position that he had clearly earned, and every match he answered that call. He was gritty and determined, a strong defensive presence and not quite what Sigi wanted. Coach tried Nate Sturgis there...
Player Reviews Nyassi and Wahl
I have referred to these two as Substitutes in my tiering of Starter, Rotational, Substitute and Reserves, but honestly, Nathan Sturgis likely belongs here as well. All three are almost always on the available bench, but rarely see time. In Sanna's case he is still quite young, just entering the...
Tradition Doesn't Win
DC United proudly display the word "tradition" on their back collars. There isn't another MLS club that could do so. They have earned it. There was an idea that they carry 12 trophies means that they deserve the 13th and that expansion franchises will never deserve respect propagated on the net,...
We're half way there
Though there's one motor gone We can still carry on Comin' in on a wing and a prayer That's not a Bon Jovi reference, but a WW II song. Ok, really its a mixed metaphor for both. In this case Sounders FC is doing some things very well, but in other areas they struggle. That's where we get to...
Your team wears Green - quit looking at the referees
That's the message right there. The team expects the game to be called a certain way, and clearly to this point it is not. Throughout the match on questionable fouls a Sounder would go down a little easily and then look up for help from the referee. Most often this was from Fredy Montero, but it...
18 for the Match?
Well after Jose's latest report , using the injury reports and bit more searching I am 95% certain that this is the traveling 18. Keepers - Keller, Dragovan Defenders - Marshall, Hurtado, Ianni, Wahl, Graham, Scott Midfielders - Zakuani, Alonso, Evans, Ljungberg, Le Toux, King, Nyassi Forwards -...
Life Without Riley
If James Riley is a hothead I don't know. What I do know is that he was Red Carded, and earned two yellows and fines in the last two weeks for his violent conduct on the pitch. What I also know is that due to the tactics that Coach Schmid employs concerning Riley and Brad Evans, this week's game...
