Poor play and poor refereeing and 6 straight road losses. I dont think they are playing for the Coach like they did for Tata.

That was an entertaining game. Wasted opportunities, poor defending and questionable referee decisions- still tested the league’s front runner. All’s not lost. Sure hope Pity has a metamorphosis like Barco did after year one. Or sooner.

Last night demonstrated that FDB has lost the team. Didn't like him to start, improved as we had some success, but last night was strange coaching decisions. The players' frustrations were evident, and while the referee had issues, it appeared to be deeper than that.
Subbing Pity off was odd. Hyndman (sp?) was no factor the entire game, didn't even know he was there. Meram should have started, much more dangerous going forward. That would have saved a sub for later as well.
Need to make a change soon or they'll lose the fans.

I saw it differently. The TEAM sh!t the bed in a ten minute period of the first half, then then manager made adjustments at halftime. Shut them out for the 2nd half (Guzan was massive) while creating numerous chances. Team didn’t bunker and suffer after being down by three. They fought and fought.
Fortunately Barco looked just as bright as he did before injury. Unfortunately Pity looked like Pity. Meram is great for a half, but can’t run forever like the kids. Hyndman is good, almost Nagbe good but he was outplayed. LAFC being on fire has something to do with all of this.
I think that was a character revealing game. The defenders had a hard time against the pressure. The midfield was overrun all night. And AU almost stole a point anyway.

I would of like to see him finish the game and Barco come in for Hyndman IMO.
