You know, as much as this town has changed---we still got some goofy fucking love in us to share.  

 

This team is pretty much the best thing about the city.

And MLS and Apple decided to paywall it for everyone.

    Right after the game I had to go take a piss so I didn't burst once we got on the train.  Walking against the grain of the crowd coming towards me and I notice Claudio Reyna, in a suit, a phone to his

    That. Was fucking. NUTS. Wildly frustrated that we couldn’t put more than one in with a man advantage, but my frustration didn’t appear to help them. My wife had a conflict, so I took one of my olde

Austin Chronicle made the most sense of it…..

”[Borell]’s new to town, hasn’t witnessed with his own eyes what Fagúndez means to the club, and has ideas for Austin FC’s future that require financial flexibility to bring them to fruition.”

This was done without sentimentality and with a view toward a big picture that we [the fans] are completely in the dark on (which is fine), and, unfortunately; is probably coming after this season unless some FAs become available in next month or so.  

Trust the process?

On cable tonight. 

Let's fuck. 

Was there a delay?  Everything says 8:30 start time and they are still doing warmups at 8:45. 

That's just about the worst call, much less card, I've ever seen.  WTF?

Games on Fox or FS1 are notorious for starting 20+ minutes after the listed time. It’s very annoying.

My sis and her friend are at the game,  courtesy me, her birthday present.  No pics.  Don't worry.

You're a good brother. 

This announcer is an idiot.  Rethink that "something's gotta give" statement, dumbass.



Come on, we really need a point here. 


That may be all we can hope for. We haven't been able to win at all when conceding that first goal.

And that statline for STL when they score first isn't great.

Driussi needs to be central. This LW shit is fucking stupid.

Wait

Did they just use VAR to rescind the yellow?  I’m getting my leagues confused because I didn’t know that could happen.

 

It really looked like they did - and from what I am reading, that isn't something they can do.

A better keeper saves that, btw. Bad reaction time by Stuver. 

We've had really nice space in their third a few times. Just can't capitalize. 

Am I imagining things, or does our passing on the attack just flat out suck?

We need to ditch Stuver and throw 10 mil at a real keeper.

It's atrocious. 

That first half was something. The look like I do my first day back at work after vacation: going through the motions, not giving a shit.

So….we’re not a good side right now.

And we clearly had some guys who overperformed last year (Stuver, Driussi) who are returned to form (shitty, and good enough (but not great)). Now we’ve reverted to the mean. And the mean for us is shit.

Stuver is capable.  It's hard to look good with such a leaky back line.

We had a phenomenal CB in Gabrielsen last season in a league where most defenders suck. That helped a lot. 

I agree Stuver overperformed. He's a fucking spare and we need to upgrade. 

Saying Driussi overperformed is insulting. He's one of the best 5 players in MLS.

Stuver is terrible. 

Either way me being a dick or not we can get a point here.

Listos mfers.

Stuver was a bright spot at many times during the first season when the whole team was trash. Last season he was a leader and played well most of the season. 

He has been trash the last couple of months, so maybe this is just who he is going to be.  I think he can be much better.

Oh, come on.  He was a top 10 keeper in MLS last year.  He can play.  He's not great, but he's not Austin's biggest problem, not by a long shot.

I agree that we really, really miss Gabrielsen. That’s a key loss.
Sorry, I’m not a Driussi worshipper. He’s good. But he’s not as good as last year made him look. He’ll never compete for the boot again (set Messi aside in this convo).
Stuver was indeed one of the few bright spots season 1, and played well in season 2…till late season. He’s been average this year, and downright bad lately. I like him, but I can’t deny what I’m seeing.

We're so fucking off in the final third. 

Our back line is so bad. That's where the money needs to be spent.
