Oh well, doesn't matter now.

Did anyone else think Bechkne did better and Kamler was very good in the back?

Okay thats fine! 🙂 I thought Bechkne did better, not the best, but lots better.

Behncke was better tonight, but he still looked awfully nearvy at the back. Donovan has a tendency to do that to people! Agreed about Kamler. IMO, he's probably been RSL's most consistent performer to this point. Real gave up acres of space to L.A. on the right, but Kamler did his best to close it down.

Anybody else think that Kreis should be pushed back up on top where he belongs? I know they've had all sorts of problems in midfield, but Kreis didn't seem to alleviate any of those.

Christian Miless....what can I say! The other guy is fair, but he often tries to seems to pull out misplaced jargan.

I am convinced that Max and Allen are presidents of the "I love Landon" club.
Seriously. I am just waiting for them to scream like little girls when Donovan scores. I mean its ok for us to do it when he scores for the USMNT, but come on! 😉

Did it seem to anyone else that we were offsides A LOT?

I thought our defense did a fair job. They weren't great, they weren't bad, they were fair. Our midfield has to remember they are all on the same team. We get very few probing passes and when we do, we have a poor first touch.
I like Watson as a sub. I like Mathis starting, but he has to touch the ball to be effective. Maybe we should yank Washington and go with two fast guys up top. Who knows, I just want to see us start scoring goals.

Kreis is a good player in the middle. However, he is not a engine. Which is what Ellinger wants him to do. Put Kreis back on top with someone like Dante (tall) but with more emotion. Switch out Watson and Kreis for each other.

The question is, can Mathis be the engine or are we in serious doo-doo?

That last offsides did not look offsides. Jamie would've been 1v1 with Hartman.

I thought the Galaxy was offsides ALOT. But perhaps it was just because I was having a heart attack everytime they ran by. :D

At least Ellinger has another option now called Jamie Watson.

I only watch the games by myself at home with maybe a sleeping kid on me.
I have a coronary every time the other team even gets the ball. So I scream a lot obviously.
I have no idea how I would handle myself if I ever got to be around awake ppl at a place like Iggy's.
