TRUE/FALSE: Jesús Brigido will save our season

Probably goal of the year. Just came on and shifted the tenor of the game with his aggression and technique. Thank you, Chivas.

Yikes

21 games in and I think it's ok to say that this is who we are. We shouldn't be this bad and maybe some of that is down to bad luck (several wonder goals and quite a few miraculous GK saves against us) but you get what you deserve at this level.

Feels like the team knows it's over too. Other than Mitch and Jorge (who have been fighting all season) the guys seem to be ready for the season to end. Concievably we might be able to sneak into 8th but we're not capable of stringing enough good performances together to really matter.

Going forward I don't know what you can other than let Marcina walk. I personally think he and Ferruzzi haven't seen eye-to-eye on how to build a squad and I'd still rather keep a coach I know can win in the USL than an executive but I doubt we go that route. Might be time for a new voice anyway. I'd love to keep Mitch and Jorge but outside of that I reckon we're gonig to have another total overhaul.

What do you think of Kevon Lambert?

I’m a newer San Antonio fan I’ve been watching the last few games and I’ve liked Kevon Lambert I just wanted to get a few more opinions on him

Looking for input on 3-2-1 days (worth it?) Where to sit/ bunker standing only? Sun setting seat facing //if we bring kids? Access to club/ perks worth the extra money Best food/drink specials /// tailgating

TIA

Desperately needed win in the rain

Great game for all those who weathered the delay. Above all things the knock on affect having Lambert was huge. Much more controlled in possession. He anchors the midfield into defense. Jorge’s head up allowed to play with much more freedom less defensive responsibilities. Agudelo getting another brace so happy for him he works tirelessly. 90th minutes spotted defending on the edge of our box. Luke good as usual. Blanco is a great addition brave on the ball and drives.

Sisneiga first match back with an absolute brilliant save. Overall win against poor opposition but quite frankly we are also the poor opposition for the league at this point. Takes us from second to last to third from last with a point behind Phoenix.

But it’s a desperately needed win. The team last night looked like they could go through a few more gears to elevate for more goals as opposed to Phoenix who looked flat.

Thoughts?

How we doin' today? (Sunday, June 30 commiseration thread)

Not gonna lie, I guffawed when we let that first very soft goal a minute into the game last night. I think I'll be able to enjoy the season a lot more with emotional detachment.

Things are...not good

That was rough to watch because after the own goal I know there was no chance we'd get a result. Organization seems to be just waiting for guys to get healthy but I'm not sure even at full-strength this squad is put together properly.

I thought Flores-Blanco is a nice addition. Having an experienced wingback/fullback helped us tremendously and there is a foundation of this team that can work and contend. We're missing too many important pieces even when healthy (and some of these guys are starting to look they aren't ever going to be healthy).

We're about to lose Lambert for the next two games (Jamaica's last group game is June 30th so he should be back for the July 6th game against Phoenix) and our midfield is a disaster. Bura will probably be back for Wednesday so he can slot in but we need a true box-to-box midfielder to partner with one of our 4 CB/DM hybrids. Love Haakenson but he's not a CM and Jorge is having to do too much dirty work and it's taking away from what he does best. No idea who is available but Marcina and Ferruzi need to dip into those connections and find someone. I assume the Abu retirement surprised everyone but that can't keep being an excuse. I'd be intrigued by a Bura/Lambert midfield if they can ever be healthy and available at the same time but I'd still like on more player

We also need a predatory CF. Selling Patino was doing right by the player so I don't begrudge the Spurs for doing it but they seem to have put all their chips in to the Solignac basket as the guy to replace those goal-scoring instincts and the guy has played all of like half an hour. Agudelo works really hard and if he's a back-up I think it can work. Lacey, LaCava, Mbongue, Chol, and Haakenson (he should be an attacker) are all nice attacking options to have that can offer something different but they aren't natural goal-scorers. We have one of the best creators in USL and found success in the league by playing multiple clinical finishers in front of him and we've completely gone away from that.

Fix those two spots and get some guys healthy and I think we can still salvage a playoff spot and maybe even host a game or two but we can't wait much longer. If we don't see those moves made I think we're probably looking for a new coach at the end of the season.

International Guys

Looks like our international guys have wrapped up their national team duty and should be available this weekend (though some of the travel might mean they need a rest).

Lambert only a got a late-game sub (played all of maybe a minute) appearance in Jamaica's 1-0 win over the Dominican Republic. He didn't see any action in their 3-2 win over Dominica. Assuming he didn't miss out due to an injury he should be fresh for us. No idea why he doesn't play for Jamaica because I think they could use someone of his profile but they're all-in a youth movement as they try to recruit guys out of England, good news (for us) is it means he probably doesn't go with them to Copa America . Looks like they will qualify for the next round easily though.

Shannon started and played 75 minutes in Trinidad and Tobago's 2-2 draw with Grenada last week. Not a great result for them but they followed it up with a 7-1 win over Bahamas on Saturday. Shannon didn't play in the 2nd game so, in theory, he shouldn't be too overworked either for this weekend. T&T are probably going to finish 2nd in that group behind Costa Rica to qualify for the next round but that draw against Grenada could come back to haunt them.

Chol didn't get off the bench in South Sudan's 1-1 draw with Togo last Wednesday. He came on as a sub this morning in their 3-0 loss to Sudan. I watched a little bit of it and he didn't do a whole lot but he came on in the 54th minute when they were already 2-0 down. Losing today probably puts South Sudan too far behind to qualify for the next round as they are now 6 points behind Senegal (who will probably win the group and qualify easily) and 8 points behind Sudan who is surprisingly in first.

Bura didn't get off the bench in Guinea-Bissau's 0-0 draw against Ethiopia. He started and went the full 90 yesterday against Egypt. I watched the game on replay (you can watch CAF qualifiers on FIFA.com for free) and he looked really solid against a very good team. He picked up a yellow card in the first half but was largely in the right place Guinea-Bissau had the lead until Salah did what Salah always does. Game ended in a 1-1 draw and that is a huge point for Guinea-Bissau. They are probably fighting for 2nd with Burkina Faso and that point put them ahead of them.

SAFC 1-0 Memphis

Happy to end a hot team’s streak. Three points coming at a good time. Really a bit of a smash and grab for us considering we come away with 36% possession with 6 shots (2 on target) vs their 17 (4). Kept in this match with great goalkeeping and a few nice individual performances/efforts. For a team moving to possession style we seem quite disjointed.

I think we really do have some good players in Lambert, Haakenson, Burks we are integrating in this squad. That being said, I think we also lack personnel. Having to play Chol and Lacy both start, players who don’t offer much in possession, kills a lot of our attacks and ability to retain the ball. I still believe in Agudelo the guy works his ass off with decent retention and feet.

I was sitting behind Marcena too, he seems to be stressed, was constantly screaming at Lacy instructions. Looked like anxious over coaching.

Defense split quite a bit few times too easily some better finishing we draw this game. Silva can’t come back soon enough. I wish we had kept Dhillon the guy is the best supporting cast.

I’m giving Marcena confidence for now we’ve had some unfortunate injuries our midfield has such little depth. I was sitting behind at. 15 or 16 y/o Academy player on our bench. But also good for him!

National team call ups

6 SAFC players have been called up to their respective national teams, although its great for those players and their career, with all the current injuries we have, I wonder what we are going to do. I’m unsure when they leave for duty, but I’m hoping we have them tomorrow for the game against Memphis, we currently sit 7th but can go up to 5th by beating Memphis and if other teams ahead of us lose or tie we can go even higher.

Marcina

I was just wondering what everyone’s thoughts on Marcina are. All of my friends including myself think the same way about him but walking around the stadium after the final whistle I hear some different stuff about him. I just wanted to hear different opinions.

Against Indy…

How is SAFC doing so poorly?!

I completely expected an average team this year and didn’t have my hopes high. But Holy Shitsnacks Batman, what the flying French toast is going on here?!??
