Missed the first half but this second half has been nothing short of awful. The officiating is atrocious with two of the softest pks I have seen in ages. Ousted looking strong as usual.

Thought the boys looked alright today to be honest. Lots of positivity moving forward and creating chances. If Rivero wants to keep his place in the starting 11 he needs to start finishing. The first Montreal goal was a nice piece of skill but also some shotty defending 4 guys in 8 yards dangled is unacceptable. The second was a horrible read by ousted totally out of character but so costly. Morales should have put in a tackle on the 3rd but we were left high and dry with everyone pushing for the tie. Manneh wasn't his normal self today. Hardly tried to beat anyone, not sure on what to think of it. Great cross on the Rivero header though that the keep saved. I thought we were the better team today but that doesn't mean much with 0 points.
Soft defence... tenative goaltending...unable to finish.
Pretty much sums it up.

Aird looked horrible on the first Montreal goal, and then he got nutmegged by Piatti a couple minutes later. Aird was caught out of position on Montreal's 2nd and he was nowhere near the defence on the 3rd goal. Perhaps he was attacking before Montreal countered. On the plus side he delivered a couple nice crosses.
I was in between snoozes, but was very attentive up to the 1st Montreal goal. I thought it came against the run of the play, and with absolutely horrible defending. Aird was exposed, and that is very concerning. Did not seem very lively, and Piatti was absolutely taking him to the woodshed.
I expected more out of Bolanos, work-rate wise.
Defending on the 2nd goal was a WTF moment, and the 3rd was simply an issue of everyone pushing and having a good counter. Morales tracked back well, but he's not known for his defending, so not sure what we can expect 1 vs. 1 there.
Manneh...the one cross stood out (unreal save, Rivero was robbed), and one more incident of him with a heavy tough dribbling into opposing fullbacks when he should be using the teammates around him.
Thought Rivero was actually pretty good, but we can't be saying that about him all year with zero production, so no pass from me. @STD, that other site doesn't have self-likes, so with my very limited time today I decided to post to TTP. So, please fcuk off, I'm busy.

Not exactly a reputable source, but Mattocks to Portland is supposedly a done deal.
