Episode 4 - 3 points from Mr. 305!

[00:00:00] Welcome to Cannon Crue, a weekly podcast discussing the Charleston battery. Your host granite will

[00:00:23] be joined by other defenders of the fleet from the Black and Yellow Supporters section,

[00:00:27] and together they will help fortify and conquer the other cannon Crue.

[00:00:36] Welcome to the Cannon Crue podcast, I'm granite and I'm here with my co-host Ryan. Hey how's it going?

[00:00:43] Going well and Patrick! I'm here. Ready? Hey we're here to talk about our battle down in Miami against

[00:00:52] our Eastern Conference rivals. We've never won down in Miami, we don't have the best record against them

[00:00:58] before we get going. Let's talk about the lineup. There were a couple changes from last week.

[00:01:04] It was Chris Allen coming in for Iqaza and the CDM role. Chris could have been doing

[00:01:11] extra well in the training session. He looked well on the field but Iqaza you'd have to think

[00:01:18] in the last game he picked up that dangerous yellow card and then he had another late challenge

[00:01:25] with high studs that should have been another yellow and he should have been ready-carded.

[00:01:31] Kind of look at Ben and think of it as a little punishment for him getting him just to calm down.

[00:01:38] We're excited, we like the enthusiasm but we want to see him still on the field and not having to sit out

[00:01:43] in the game. Is he just getting some rotation in here? That's another great possibility too and

[00:01:49] just keeping the players fresh, getting Allen rotated in the mix, getting your best players,

[00:01:55] your good players rested and getting some other players healthy and rested and back onto the field as well.

[00:02:03] Yeah I'd say the one glaring change that we didn't see happen that maybe we thought what happened

[00:02:10] was Archer back onto the pitch to start a game. We'll touch on it a little bit later because we did

[00:02:16] finally get seal action from him but seeing him warming up looking really well, I was surprised

[00:02:22] he didn't start this one just what we kind of expected from Miami with their attack play or more so

[00:02:30] they're just speed and having that maturity on our defensive line but it was at least nicely

[00:02:37] traveled with the team he's on the bench and he was our option on there. Yeah that was the great

[00:02:41] option it was nice to see him coming into the lineup and then getting some minutes in especially

[00:02:46] there at the end because I think that's the big thing is if you're out with a hamstring for

[00:02:49] a little bit if that's what it was trying to get back up to game shape can take a little bit.

[00:02:55] Now we knew this going to be a tough match, I think there was a lot of predictions about

[00:02:58] a lot of fouling and everything else. Ryan what do you think about the matches that live up to your

[00:03:04] expectations? It absolutely lived up to my expectations. I think we called it from the start,

[00:03:11] it was going to be one of those games that was just a fight, fouls were going to be called left and

[00:03:18] right is just going to be a gruesome battle in the midfield. Now it was kind of interesting. We'll get

[00:03:25] into it the early goals but again overall it's a really exciting game and physical game.

[00:03:35] I feel the expectations for this match was coming off obviously a huge win, a really big win at home,

[00:03:44] a lot of positive play and just looking to build off of that for us so maybe the expectation

[00:03:50] for me was I wanted to see the chance creation and the players actually foul those up finished

[00:03:56] the ball on the net. I mean honestly I was hoping for another five four no and just seeing the boys

[00:04:03] out there having another good ramp up on what is kind of seemingly the longest road trip ever

[00:04:11] where we just sprinkle in and a home game every now and then including our next few upcoming

[00:04:16] fixtures. I don't know, I was expecting us to come out and just start firing away from the get go.

[00:04:27] Yeah my expectation was going to do what we did the first couple matches that come out,

[00:04:31] a lot of possession on the ball trying to protect with our center backs but we playing a little high

[00:04:36] and just a lot of possession some technical work getting into the box, getting players out wide

[00:04:41] and spreading out that defense on the other side. And that's what we saw I think most for almost

[00:04:47] all again. I mean possession was was incredibly high for us if you look at some of the maps

[00:04:54] for center backs were almost at the halfway line and their average positions weren't even

[00:05:00] across their halfway line so it was kind of a that's kind of what I thought was going to be

[00:05:03] an intermixed with that fouls which I was kind of surprised it wasn't was not as many fouls

[00:05:09] I thought there was going to be. So let's move right into the match and there's only a couple

[00:05:15] big moments other than us possessing the ball almost 67% of the time and that was their goal.

[00:05:21] You hate to see these ones you just hate to see all we first saw it we were at Edmund's

[00:05:30] post and you're just thinking to yourself what is the keeper doing here what is Adam what does he

[00:05:38] got himself into I don't know if he took his eye off the ball or the player I think he took his

[00:05:45] eye off the player and realizing where the attacker was actually at because you know

[00:05:51] Miami's attacker just I mean it was no real touch effort to just go right past them.

[00:05:58] So thank you just kind call it Nat Lala land and you know we're kind of expecting him to stay

[00:06:05] a little bit more tuned in with all the goals that he's got scored on this year which is only two

[00:06:11] so it's not many goals he got scored on just the two goals both of them kind of came from

[00:06:15] simple mistakes where we kind of find him not being fully tuned in and not being him being the ability

[00:06:22] to where he can be and being as good as he can be so thank you still trying to find his group and I'm

[00:06:27] not too pressed or too worried right now because it's still so early in the season but just

[00:06:33] still not a good look he does well the bounce back yeah I think to bail him out a little bit on this

[00:06:39] there was a lot of poor play from a few players on this one particular we call it a long ball

[00:06:47] because that's all it was it was a smash and grab situation let's boot the ball as long as we can

[00:06:54] have our fastest player run onto it and try and create something I can't bully blame docentives

[00:07:01] for being too far wide he is playing as an outside back but the ball was less than a foot away

[00:07:07] from him where you stick a foot out maybe he deflects it out goes more towards the corner

[00:07:14] just with the initial throw ball to him to gavilanis but I mean you also saw Palmer center back was

[00:07:22] way too high up the field on this play he was almost in a center defensive bid position

[00:07:28] so there wasn't that second center back covering because the rest of our players are actually

[00:07:33] guarding man marking who is running on the outside of the box so I think it's probably was just

[00:07:41] green wise trying to step up to make the play and just got wrong footed on it I mean he's not

[00:07:46] going to be the fastest player out there the best defensive player he's the keeper he's there

[00:07:51] to stop the goals from going in the net so I don't know it's a little difficult you don't like seeing

[00:07:58] it like you said right you don't want to see your keeper out that far but it would definitely have

[00:08:02] helped if he had a little more cover but I mean we're nine minutes in the game I don't even think

[00:08:07] the guys were fully ready for this kind of gut punch just for the long ball sprint they're going to have

[00:08:15] a hit so I don't know we know that gavilanis is their number one man and we know that he is the one

[00:08:27] the ball is going to go to and we know he's fast and he split the santo's and paulman I think it

[00:08:33] was paulman on that side and was there all by himself in the open and you know as for paulman being

[00:08:39] it did seem strange they were really in a forward position especially for it wasn't like a counter

[00:08:47] attack it was a ball being played I think from the box area of Miami and it was just a couple quick

[00:08:53] passes some long passes and then garson really bad situation but yeah greening needs come out

[00:08:58] and if he's going to come out you got to come out and get it as a keeper and you're going to come

[00:09:04] that's what we want from him as well if you're going to come out claim it you put your hands to it

[00:09:10] obviously he can't put his hands to it because he's outside the box kick it up the field get it out

[00:09:14] of bounds one of the two he didn't do one of the two but then he also then didn't make it

[00:09:20] difficult for the attacker he it was just an easy pass right by him so that's that's where I'm

[00:09:26] getting at with him saying like that is a loom you know we fight a little bit better from him on that

[00:09:31] part but no it's not all of his fault because at the end of the day the ball has to go through all 11

[00:09:34] people leave behind that net you know so there's 11 people who can all be accounted for at that time

[00:09:41] when the ball goes in the back the net you know there's a lot more people here at salt and it's just

[00:09:47] you know as a team we just need to come back together that kind of sucks like palma literally

[00:09:53] I think for me is just watching the replay back of that goal and palma is not jogging he's not

[00:10:01] sprinting back to try and help say the goalie does force him wide to even get back in a position

[00:10:07] of potentially cut an angle off for a shot on the goal until he sees that he's kind of by him

[00:10:15] then you see him do like a lunch forward start sprinting I do it's just the effort on that play of

[00:10:21] like if you're if you're gonna be that far forward and trying to help build out the play the least

[00:10:27] you can do is at least put the effort to sprint back and show that you're trying to get back to cover

[00:10:31] it and set up just half-assing it a little bit yeah but that's another thing too with palma himself

[00:10:43] coming in from last season a lot of times he was flatfooted coming into the start of games he

[00:10:51] he he took him a while to develop and sit into games and to get comfortable and he did kind

[00:10:59] of look flatfooted for the majority of the games that he came out and started last year and I

[00:11:03] didn't it's not like I saw it in the Oakland game there was a few little misqs here and there just

[00:11:10] back line in general and they all cleaned it up they all look good they still got one goal in them

[00:11:15] but then when you go into this game you kind of see in a little bit singularity a little bit mistake

[00:11:21] on his end I got instant flashbacks with him not running back I got instant flashbacks of NB for last

[00:11:28] year where he got a red card the first three minutes of the game and will lose four zero and we're

[00:11:32] playing ten minutes the whole entire game and next thing we're gonna get ready to talk about

[00:11:37] we're gonna go into a right here is three minutes later what a response yeah well I mean

[00:11:45] fortunately we didn't have to wait long for a response to this one I don't think anyone really

[00:11:52] got to see it live since broadcasters really wanted to show that goal we just talked about

[00:12:00] yeah this is the broadcasters I don't know if we're just dealing with amateur broadcasters like

[00:12:07] we're amateur broadcasters I don't know but it seemed really strange that also they spent all

[00:12:12] this time showing Miami's goal in the middle of play all I have to do is watch some EPO games and

[00:12:20] it kind of managed cameras in the same manners they do on the big leagues seems like somebody was

[00:12:27] very eager to just show off a single player at the expense of our player who's in the top of the

[00:12:32] league and we had a free kick in a dangerous area who takes the camera off the open play

[00:12:39] in that situation to show a minute and a half replay I was just say this puts the battery

[00:12:45] this put a battery in another spot though that we haven't been yet this season that's being

[00:12:50] in a deficit position you know we're down one zero now in the opening ten minutes you know I

[00:12:55] looked to you Brad when we were at the bar and it's also saying how are we gonna respond you

[00:12:59] this is the first time we've been down all season next thing you know we pick our heads up we

[00:13:04] immediately scored and tied it and you seek renwist just he's back in he's fully focused he's

[00:13:09] tuned in he's born into this game he is giving his undivided attention fully into this game now

[00:13:16] you know who else put ahead into this game was Nick that was a great header he muscled it and did

[00:13:22] what he was supposed to do pointing that ball down into the corner keeper team have a chance

[00:13:28] we talk about for the past few weeks now another set peace goal and just believing that the players

[00:13:35] will get on the end of these balls and head at home I mean this is the third game in a row

[00:13:40] the goal goes in the back of that for Nick which is there a player flying higher than him right

[00:13:45] now in the usl don't think so and you can argue for Gabel on his but he scored two in one game

[00:13:54] the last game before this goal I don't think he's playing on the same level as Nick is

[00:14:00] no and I haven't looked at all the numbers I wonder if Gabel on his has all the assists and all

[00:14:05] the other parts of Nick's game that is really adding to the team effort you know right now he's

[00:14:11] I think he's second in the usl tight was tied for second with usl with three goals out of five games

[00:14:19] that's that's a pretty good stat he needs these keeps going I'd like to see him get 30 goals this

[00:14:23] year but we'll see that's gonna take a lot so Ryan what does this dude a grin whist because he

[00:14:28] doesn't even have time to hang his head from the previous play before we equalize well no he had

[00:14:36] the moment to hang his head he moped about it for the three seconds and then he picked his head

[00:14:41] up and we scored he had to immediately overcome it he has to then buy into it he but that's what he

[00:14:47] did he bought into it gave it its full it gave the game his full attention and we never had an

[00:14:52] issue in the back for the remainder of the game really I mean we had a few little if he thinks here

[00:14:57] in there but it was cleaned up quite nicely and we had no errors and you know came away with the win

[00:15:03] and I was trying to look at the grannies he's he's 12th in the Eastern Conference

[00:15:11] for saves that's because there's not a whole lot of shots being taken on him back there no he's

[00:15:15] he's only averaging one save the game yeah and I think it's a testament to our play in front of

[00:15:21] them our backs and our midfield in the possession that ball that appears like this has been a way of

[00:15:28] playing for me as a defender looking back I almost like love these plays for my keeper to be able

[00:15:36] to get involved early on because it's almost like changes there's perspective for the rest of the

[00:15:40] game I know for me as a defender it does but I feel like something like this actually helps him

[00:15:45] for the rest of the game because he's involved in the play and now he's trying to be a little more

[00:15:50] proactive in everything he's doing and even after that first goal we didn't look panicked I think

[00:15:56] that's a big testament to the abilities that we have and the confidence we have been look panicked

[00:16:03] of course we got it back in almost immediately but everybody was just back to business let's just

[00:16:08] get back to business and let's do what we do and we got some great results from it about the 42nd

[00:16:14] minute there was a corner in a near post run yeah another great ball in by Maloy and Smith coming

[00:16:23] on nowhere just trying to create something on nothing and you can't really tell if the goal he

[00:16:30] got fingertips to it or if it was just an inch or two over the bar but another one of these great

[00:16:36] runs by our defenders in the box and it's that piece to just try and head one home I mean making

[00:16:44] the runs it's it's what you want to see from your players to try and get ahead at halftime

[00:16:49] not exactly what we need to look forward and going into those tight spaces and areas is

[00:16:54] that creativity and how can we get the ball to our best players and put it in those best situations

[00:17:01] for us but Gordon I was kind of you know Brad I was saying that it's from here sitting there at

[00:17:06] Edmunds Oost and how we called it on the last podcast you know I was a really sweating that it

[00:17:11] was one one I saw how we are continuing to put pressure but I didn't I didn't think we were going

[00:17:17] to score yet in my head because of how we called the game and I truly believe that it was just

[00:17:22] going to be that frustrating of a game that we just weren't going to get the ball in until later

[00:17:27] in the second half going into the second half really the only thing we're missing is that ball

[00:17:33] in the back and then Ed again to get that lead we've done everything right we've come back from a

[00:17:39] in a position where we were losing one zero came back real quick within 90 seconds and responded

[00:17:45] we had possession of we're up 60%

[00:17:49] getting the shots in we got a few crosses we're getting the set pieces we're getting after them

[00:17:54] we just have to keep the pressure up and just just keep it just keep it all in them they're

[00:17:59] going to get flatfooted at some point continue the press just like against New Mexico yeah we were

[00:18:05] going in the first half we had 14 shots I think there was four shots on target and just I guess

[00:18:11] we got to keep that up now in the last thing too is the mainly protector players is that's the

[00:18:19] first of foremost is our protection of our players because again we only have that 19 man roster

[00:18:25] and any type of injury Nick it's gonna it's gonna hurt the roster for a bit right now but

[00:18:31] soon we have a quick turnaround next week then you look at after the goal to following up with it

[00:18:39] I don't think the ball even got into our final third you know maybe after another 20 minutes after

[00:18:46] our goal we immediately won the ball back and kept the ball in their half the entire time yeah

[00:18:53] me we had leading up to half we had I don't know four or five more chances like real chances we had

[00:19:02] Nick dribble in the box again make a nice little move there take a shot I mean their defenders were

[00:19:08] kind of packing it out but it was almost like they scored we responded and then we just

[00:19:15] were like the older brother holding their head down on the carpet saying no that was a one-time

[00:19:21] thing you you get to do we're just gonna go ahead and start shooting ball at your bat and you're

[00:19:26] not really gonna do anything to us for the rest of the staff at least yeah I think possession stats

[00:19:31] were we're at 63.8 at the end of the first half and they were like 36.6 so the rest of the first

[00:19:38] half was possession ball passing it they're kicking down trying to get the long ball and we're stopping

[00:19:45] it is that leads us up into the second half so this takes us in the second half there's a little

[00:19:52] action yeah I mean just like the first half we don't really have to wait long for another big chance

[00:19:59] honestly for me the end uh 56 54th minute free kick side of the box throw in

[00:20:08] foul headed away by moloi again and then Miami is on a counter they are it was exactly like

[00:20:19] the their first goal in the first half but this time Gudiera's who spoiler alert

[00:20:25] Patrick's player of the match tracked all the way back to stop this counter attack and immediately

[00:20:31] turn it into a counter for the battery where we had a 2 on 1 I think Alan had the ball and didn't end

[00:20:43] up getting the ball across to maybe try and score a goal off of it but either way just the

[00:20:48] play back from Gudiera's to to stop Miami's counter attack and then from their corner kick

[00:20:55] us just immediately breaking away and trying to score on them immediately was so reminiscent of the

[00:21:00] first half and the two goals we previously saw so I mean it was pretty much the only action but it

[00:21:09] was right away to start that yeah and then off this kind of counter attack counter attack we've

[00:21:17] finally got our first big controversy of the year the d8 minute Alan takes down galvanolas on the

[00:21:26] halfway line where you guys think and when you saw this because he was clearly on a breakaway

[00:21:32] yeah this one you kind of see it as a tactical foul you see it a lot with man Sadie and Pep Guardiola

[00:21:39] system that that counter attack at the midfield is it is he through on goal yet or is he still considered

[00:21:48] not in that dangerous attack to where it's an automatic red card as like a last man defender

[00:21:55] so it's a good strategic foul but again it was still that controversial call it definitely

[00:22:02] was borderline it could have been a red could have been yellow it wasn't thinking this it was yellow

[00:22:09] Brad Whearth thoughts on it Andrew Booth is just phenomenal player I think I'm sad when he went

[00:22:15] but if you look at I think it's a yellow card I don't think he's even close to being a red card because

[00:22:21] the couple things you have to consider as an official is and I'm reading right from the laws of the

[00:22:26] game the distance between the offense and the goal general direction of play likelihood of keeping

[00:22:32] or gaining control of the ball in location number defenders so if you look at a lot of those

[00:22:37] considerations it was half is just tactical foul he grabbed him that's a that's a caution no more

[00:22:44] than that I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one I think we we slid past on this got really

[00:22:50] lucky that was it it was 1v1 and we saw him break away with speed in the first half I thought when

[00:22:58] I saw that ball coming I thought he was gone and it was a oh no moment for me like we're going to see

[00:23:05] another him burst green with drinless and I think we're lucky to get away with the yellow I know

[00:23:12] it's a half field but these are those gray areas that they talk about where he still has plenty of

[00:23:19] field to run on I don't know I mean the yellow card comes and we don't see any more of them from

[00:23:25] this point but for me I think we were lucky on this play yeah if you look where the ball

[00:23:32] ends up way in front of the play he still had to run quite a distance to get the ball and get it

[00:23:38] on the control and I can't remember who was over on the right hand side but there he was basically

[00:23:45] even with the whole play and I think he could have been that defender to be able to come back and

[00:23:51] cover if if the tactical foul was unsuccessful yeah I'm glad it was I'm glad it was only a yellow

[00:23:58] I just you see him week in week out you never know what refs what is going to be the consistency

[00:24:04] of a call from week to week yellow loan certain files in the game so I'm glad it was a yellow but

[00:24:12] you just as a fan you never really can not hold your breath in certain situations like this

[00:24:20] that well we're also the routine too against the team that we've never beaten and it's one

[00:24:26] of those heartbreaking our one is heart eight moments where we're holding ourselves where it's like

[00:24:31] is he gonna be that red is he gonna be the yellow where yeah Brad at times where you slow it down

[00:24:36] frame by frame you really look at it probably doesn't look as a certain red but in the moment

[00:24:41] can most certainly definitely be red and we're happy to get away with that

[00:24:47] because you can look at it two minutes later with Ben Peerman taking Chris Allen off and bringing on

[00:24:54] Causa that was the thing we had mentioned earlier is resting a Causa for those that short turn around

[00:25:01] of the upcoming week we have or did he really think it could have been a red and instead of

[00:25:07] possibly keeping Chris in and getting a juicy cheap little foul and that being a

[00:25:12] cause of another yellow and having a man down going ahead and something him out that's a good point

[00:25:18] yeah I see the way you're going but also looking at not only did he sub Chris at the 60 minute mark

[00:25:26] which is traditionally when coaches start seven people but he also sub Tore is in so maybe that

[00:25:33] was just part of the plan at 60 minutes these two players were coming in and maybe Chris knew

[00:25:37] that so he was gonna reach out touch someone and I want to back up because one thing I didn't

[00:25:43] mention earlier which I thought was a very positive thing is when Grinney when that goal was

[00:25:48] scored it might have been very tempting to go out and grab somebody end up in that red card

[00:25:54] situation and nobody did and I think that shows a level of confidence that even though they scored

[00:25:59] against us we can still come back and win this game yeah and that's actually a great point you

[00:26:06] brought up too is that Chris probably knew going in that 60th ma'am in 60th minute mark you're coming

[00:26:12] off the field it looks of the clock you know 50 57th minute oh snap they got a quick counter

[00:26:19] yeah I'm just going to take him out real quick because I know we get ready to come off the pitch

[00:26:24] quite smart actually Patrick I think you kind of said you know we watch man city do this

[00:26:29] this is part of their normal play as they just reach out and grab somebody the thing might be a

[00:26:34] threat at the halfway line and uh slows down the place slows them down being on the other side of

[00:26:40] it's very frustrating but I kind of say kudos to the Chris for reaching out there and doing it

[00:26:45] also a little curious if this is what we're going to start seeing from Torres all see isn't as in

[00:26:52] like maybe the occasional start here and there or as he's just going to be our 45 50 60 minute sub

[00:27:00] guy that comes on and continues to create chaos for us I mean goodie air is working his ass off but

[00:27:10] the play I talked about a few minutes ago that was actually him on the break away with Alan

[00:27:16] that goodie air is didn't pass the ball so I messed up on that but like

[00:27:20] is this the reason he's coming off versus like a pre-plan sub where Torres is just you're knowing

[00:27:26] you get the minutes with him again and like we're trying to spread the minutes around for our guys

[00:27:33] to keep them all fresh with such a small squad where they're almost promised enough minutes to keep

[00:27:38] playing all season to keep them all happy so I like I think that's another sub at the same time

[00:27:45] where you look at his goodie air has come off for a couple missed opportunities or is this a pre-plan

[00:27:51] with Torres again now Pat just say kind of talk just have speak on it what you're just talking about

[00:27:59] with the type of team Charleston has this season with the 19 man roster but you look at this roster

[00:28:06] and you just named three different guys who are on our bench who could definitely be a starter like

[00:28:11] Jake LeCovid definitely be a starter and any other team in the USL there's all the other teams

[00:28:16] Torres and all of them they could all be starters they go anywhere else yet they're here on Charleston

[00:28:21] we have a 19 man roster that shows the level of depth the experience and the skill level that we

[00:28:31] have on our bench so when we have a person coming off the field and going in we're replacing a starter

[00:28:37] for another starter we're not losing any type of skill level we're not we're not losing anything

[00:28:44] and we're actually raising our game because when our opponents make substitutions usually they're

[00:28:49] downgrading you never really see it the other way around unless it's for like a certain set piece or

[00:28:56] a certain moment in the game when you're trying to be more defensive or go more on the attack

[00:29:02] you don't you don't really have it that way because you know that's a lot of money

[00:29:06] it's a lot of money to keep that team happy and just like how you said how are you going to promise

[00:29:10] those players minutes when you know I'm a starter I'm one of my 80 minute game but I'm sitting on

[00:29:16] the bench because I'm only getting 50 minutes playing for a team where we're really good though

[00:29:22] it's a it's a scary thought of like being an opposing team looking out our bench in that perspective of

[00:29:30] every single one of those guys can start on our team and at some point we're going to have to face

[00:29:35] that or the possibility of facing them against us in this game so you don't know what to plan for

[00:29:43] so let's talk about tours because he come in at we're talking about the rotation of players

[00:29:47] so against the route on it 59 minutes against New Mexico on a 71 minutes and then this time he comes

[00:29:57] on 60 minutes so maybe that's the plan but Ron you're absolutely right you know it's kind of it's

[00:30:02] a great luxury to have you know 19 starters they can come in we're not stepping down and it's

[00:30:09] and it's not necessarily like for like either I think it was a great thing because it's a different

[00:30:13] look to the opposing team so I think it's a good problem we have and I'm kind of excited too

[00:30:20] because I know that this is something we're going to continue to talk about throughout the season

[00:30:24] too with this 19 man roster it's you know it's it's going to be something that is it's going to be

[00:30:30] interesting to watch as we go through the whole season as it carries on through injuries and

[00:30:36] just through all the games will play because right around the corner we have the US open

[00:30:41] you know good luck to the teams playing tonight you have the second round going on so we'll find out

[00:30:46] I think we'll find out in three weeks time who we play in around at 32 coming up so then you

[00:30:51] have those games coming to play um so you have a lot of factors coming in and um just just ready

[00:30:58] to see it it is nice it's fun to play the game of we get dropped for who in the next game like

[00:31:05] did someone play their way in and then yeah I mean it's free for us because this this is what we

[00:31:10] get to talk about but like there's so but he it's not like someone's dropping the ball and it's not

[00:31:15] like a light for like oh that guy has come out we've had this conversation every week now of like

[00:31:21] don't know does he make it in I don't know the other guy also kind of played as also things it's

[00:31:27] an amazing problem for us to have

[00:31:29] and as we talked about it in the beginning of the podcast too with the cause I'm being the one

[00:31:37] the one early change with him being off they're not starting and Chris Allen starting that could

[00:31:42] have just been you know the rotation getting the minutes or who who knows but I kind of gave

[00:31:48] the shout out of they could have been just card travel or something like that because we honestly

[00:31:53] don't know that was just the one change that we're trying to figure out what could have were the changes

[00:31:58] you know because they're such great players and I like your theory better we have to buy into the theories

[00:32:06] you know pretty much I think it's up it made me that position on the field there's an

[00:32:11] card travel oh card travel I think said card travel well they have enough gas in the take there

[00:32:17] they just keep getting those little scratches on the side we got to take them out for about

[00:32:23] 45 minutes the rest of them a little bit it's a good thing we got about four more sitting on the lot

[00:32:31] okay Ryan this is all you the doctors in the house that's your boy give us an ob-pop seat

[00:32:41] MD Myers the golden boy has come to Charleston and he has brought it

[00:32:48] bring us the three points he's bringing us the golden win what a goal what a tap in it was it was beautiful

[00:32:58] everything about the buildup the team play it's what we want to see what we want to continue to see

[00:33:05] how we ended against Mexico and how we're going to end on a high note against Miami after early struggles

[00:33:13] this is what we build a part going into the next game right here and it was it was quite amazing to

[00:33:18] see how we all just finally stuck it all together and got through to that final third created the space

[00:33:26] and created the shot opportunity and it was yeah I say it was a tap in because he he should have

[00:33:31] swore to it and he did score it but with that much space in between his shot he definitely

[00:33:36] definitely had a barrier well I want to take exception with your your comment the early struggles

[00:33:41] I think we played our game there was just that one little hiccup and we just got back to business

[00:33:46] and ended up just doing what we do on side or offside on side on so I'm a very big proponent of being

[00:33:59] told to myself it's offside you'll have to watch three or four replays and we'll wait it out

[00:34:06] not even the full replay of the first one clearly on number 29 I don't know who he was held him

[00:34:12] on the entire time I just feel bad for Tora is like give this guy his goal he he is creating more

[00:34:19] chances off of rebounds for us to knock these home and I just a guy doing so much and he hasn't had

[00:34:28] his yet I know it's coming but I just I feel a little bad for him on this play

[00:34:32] he's ricocheted off the post but this time he hit it so hard it come off the keeper's chest

[00:34:39] and still bounced out about you know about 12 or 13 yards he's gonna get one you're right and

[00:34:44] it's gonna ripple the back of the net if not ripple hole in the back of it yeah I thought it was going

[00:34:47] through the keeper's chest so I just want him to get that goal and then we can talk a little bit more

[00:34:55] about why isn't he starting then why is he coming on to late well he comes he has to come on so

[00:35:01] late to help Ryan out with his predictions there should be a stat for like shots that rebound

[00:35:08] and then the fox in the box takes care of the rest of it because that's what's happened twice to him

[00:35:12] it's got to be a stat that helps out Tora his on that because both those shots were phenomenal

[00:35:17] and just a little bit one way or the other and he's putting the back of the net but the MD was

[00:35:22] just in the right spot and the defenders just stopped when that shot when it was like they just

[00:35:28] stopped and watch and cred to MD for seeing that ricochet come off and he was moving as soon as

[00:35:34] that ball come off the keeper from an on-side position and you know first glance it looked like he

[00:35:40] was really off side by you know three or four yards but when you look at like he said watch it

[00:35:45] for like two seconds and you can see yeah he's on and he's in an on-side position and as soon as

[00:35:51] creens off the keeper's chest he's right there and nice and calm and cool put it in that so yeah

[00:35:58] I mean that's that's the one where the defenders just you see it put their hands up and just pray

[00:36:05] bet the line jugs saw something that they didn't I mean that it's great follow up this now the

[00:36:11] second game in in a row that we get to see it so I mean we talked about it the first week second

[00:36:20] week that the chances will come these guys will grow more confident and just follow it up and

[00:36:26] I mean you play it like for light players that are just like you said Ryan all starters on this

[00:36:30] field and can be starters and playing at this level they're going to start grooving together so

[00:36:36] I mean this wasn't towards his first opportunity on goal like 10 minutes prior he had a shot

[00:36:42] across goal that almost went in for an own goal. Like this guy is just continuously creating these

[00:36:47] chances that we seem to just knock in so maybe I don't know if I was a striker I'd want

[00:36:53] tours on the field just to kind of hang around the six yard line a little bit and just knock a few

[00:36:58] home maybe pad the stats a little bit. Maybe that's his game plan I'm not gonna score a goal directly

[00:37:04] I'm just gonna let other people score but it's gonna look really awesome when I do it

[00:37:09] so how many different goal scorers have we had this season out of the four matches?

[00:37:13] They've been at five. Yeah that's pretty impressive here we spread it out over five different players

[00:37:21] and not just people at four but also a couple midfielder. Yeah you have a goal from a set piece

[00:37:31] from a loy you have a couple goals from Nick Marcanick for when he was playing up top that so a striker

[00:37:40] for a few games and then you have another one from when he was back out wide.

[00:37:44] MD finally picked one up sitting up top and then I believe it was Conway and Gutierrez out wide

[00:37:53] also picked those up as well against New Mexico so it's nice to see everyone getting in there

[00:38:00] into the mix but that's also kind of showing you that early on we're trying to

[00:38:05] decide who we kind of want to fill into that mix and getting everyone on the score sheet early

[00:38:11] kind of mixing all that up shows that we don't have that one solid person but we don't need that

[00:38:17] one solid person. Like I kind of look at the Charleston team from last year and you look up

[00:38:21] at who we had up front we had all get front that was our Charleston attack was all get you know

[00:38:27] you can say we had Fido bra as we had Nick Marcanick up front as well both of them did phenomenal

[00:38:33] last year I'm not saying anything bad about them they were both phenomenal last year and obviously

[00:38:37] we see Fidell was back there's up in the M Blast now and Argy is obviously with another team

[00:38:43] but that was our main focal point was around Argy in this year which don't we don't have that

[00:38:48] and it's kind of like that mystery identity to other teams and other teams are having a difficulty

[00:38:55] trying to figure out what we're doing. You mentioned Gutierrez by I think it was Rodriguez's

[00:39:01] cord to goal as the fifth person is that right. Yeah that sounds right. Began a Rodriguez he did

[00:39:09] he did come off with an injury in the 72nd minute so well concerning I think

[00:39:19] Crawford came on for him what do you think Brad? It is concerning because he's just a motor in

[00:39:25] there and he is going at it you know he's challenging you know I like it but I don't necessarily

[00:39:30] like it but he's challenging Maloy there was a couple times or at least once in past matches where

[00:39:35] you can see the discussion on camera between him and Maloy who's taking a free kick you can

[00:39:40] see him going Rodriguez saying hey this is mine not let me take this and Maloy say no this is mine

[00:39:46] which is I think it's a good thing that we have so much confidence in there and so to take him off

[00:39:52] and he might not come back I don't know I don't know if he is injured but if it isn't injury

[00:39:57] it is a little bit concerning yeah I mean maybe this opens up what we've been talking about like

[00:40:03] maybe Torres comes in and just plays a little more forward in his role and hopefully it's not

[00:40:09] anything serious and just a little knock but if so we have the guys to back up where he can take

[00:40:15] a 45 minute break for the next game and then sub on second half and then get back to full health

[00:40:21] no player wants to do that but precaution you know I mean Pat is that is that a possible prediction

[00:40:29] for me for the next game considering that we do have Louisville on at home on that following Tuesday

[00:40:35] so we have like you know two three days of rest I'll follow in the Rhode Island game do you think

[00:40:40] that's a possibility for Torres to get the nod and get a 40 45 yeah I'm gonna go

[00:40:46] compared to what he's gonna I'm gonna say Torres stays as our guardian angel coming on the 60th

[00:40:55] and our boy Tattoo Jay is going to start that game okay I like that call Jake

[00:41:01] LeCovid get a little bit more to start out he's worked enough he's earned it I mean

[00:41:06] no we honestly can't sit here and say every single player hasn't earned it but you never know

[00:41:13] you switch it up we've seen from coach they he likes to do what he wants to do and keep the other

[00:41:18] teams guessing they really have no idea what we're up to most of this time and then but when

[00:41:24] they figure it out they just go and sit back and hope we just don't score six on yeah so I'm kind

[00:41:30] of itching to see our practice get us to see our Howard team practices I guarantee you it's so

[00:41:36] competitive right now just to see all them competing for one of their starting spots right now it's

[00:41:42] just like this what I'd be around and see it see each of them competing day in and day out for one

[00:41:47] of those spots is it's got to be a site to see for sure we know coach pyramids used up all five

[00:41:54] subs right every match you know in the one person that was not on the bench was drak is that

[00:42:03] knocky received earlier in the season is that still bugging him and how does that affect selection

[00:42:09] for the for the Saturday match in and I guess Louisville when's when's drak coming back

[00:42:18] you know that's a good that's a good question it's with the Santos you have

[00:42:23] playing very well out molest back and you know you don't want to immediately change him out but at

[00:42:28] the same time too you want your depth back in case of anything happens and the knock that Josh

[00:42:35] took it could have been you know back injury it could have been one of those lower leg injuries and

[00:42:39] we're still not quite sure which it was we haven't seen him out there on the training field like we

[00:42:45] uh archer the other day it's kind of tough with this week coming up because you know we just

[00:42:51] had the road trip to Miami you didn't travel at all to Miami so you know we weren't really expecting that

[00:42:56] but then turn around going into this week we're on the road to Rhode Island and then back home on

[00:43:01] Tuesday night for Louisville so I would hope to I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't travel to

[00:43:07] Rhode Island but I would hope to at least see him on the bench for Louisville at home on Tuesday night

[00:43:13] so let's play the game who replaces the Santos if he gets hurt in the first couple of minutes

[00:43:18] the next match if Drax not if you were to get hurt yeah if Drax not on the bench who replaced

[00:43:23] this I think maybe you put Palma out there honestly because you're gonna have archer back

[00:43:31] you're gonna slot him back in and maybe you just deal with that maybe switch to a three-back system

[00:43:36] you have Alan you don't want to take the Lloyd away you know any of these players not to be

[00:43:42] productive in the creation of our opportunities forward but you have plenty of players who can

[00:43:48] slot in the wings but I don't know maybe he just switches it to a three-back and just puts a little more

[00:43:54] cover in the midfield to almost play back a little bit with them would you move Segbers in or

[00:44:03] like would you want him move him because he's vital down the wing and I think you've probably a

[00:44:08] very good like wingback or a CDM role and I think he could do quite well if you were to slide up into

[00:44:13] the middle if we were to do that three-back yeah or would you take him out of that lineup I think

[00:44:20] you leave him in the way he's playing that it's too vital to the wing play to take him out of it

[00:44:26] I don't know maybe what they call it the inverted wingback where he sometimes comes into midfield and

[00:44:33] maybe you just have that is a false decoy of like a back four and he technically plays a little more

[00:44:41] central but I just for the way he plays on the outside and the balls he plays and the amount

[00:44:47] of crosses we get out of it from game to game I don't think you could take him out

[00:44:51] I can 100 I love that shout out you just said that inverted wingback role

[00:44:58] coming into the middle because that is exactly something I see Ben Pima doing

[00:45:03] with disguising a play seeing how you have your outside back okay we look we see how they're

[00:45:08] playing four in the back or okay we see them playing three in the back now and you're sliding that

[00:45:14] CDM back into the middle clogging up that middle and then boom when we go up forward now exploding

[00:45:20] out to the wings going forward I can definitely see him using that further down my line so it looks

[00:45:27] like we're playing four at the back and all said there's a midfielder an extra midfielder and we see

[00:45:32] it with another team that Patrick and I kind of watch where there's a particular left back that all

[00:45:38] said he's in the middle of play in the center field passing the ball around he's a much better midfielder

[00:45:43] and I think he is a left back especially on the defensive part but maybe that's something that's

[00:45:48] maybe in our future I mean it creates chaos more so in the midfield where

[00:45:54] I mean you get sit there and think like oh well all they have to do is win the ball back and it's

[00:45:58] a counter yeah but you also now we're accounting for almost eight players attacking you with

[00:46:06] three of them set back in front of the defense so it allows your center backs and that

[00:46:12] type of position to almost cover more wide where you're not playing three typical centerbacks

[00:46:18] but you're playing more two wingbacks and one center back who can free flow pass the ball around

[00:46:24] we've been doing all season with our center backs and our wingbacks is actually just playing

[00:46:29] the ball across and switching play to kill the counter attack so I could see this happening this

[00:46:35] is something we're already in the style of doing and our play suits us to do this but this is also a big

[00:46:43] ith and it's obviously something we have to look at was such a small roster but the options are there

[00:46:51] I guess so our captain came on with culp minutes left to go leave an archer great to see him back

[00:46:59] out there and it kind of goes to what we were just talking about yeah we some come on and we

[00:47:07] pretty much switched more so to a five one three one so it almost looked like we were playing

[00:47:13] four at the back because archer came on for Nick so obviously I don't know archer's not playing

[00:47:20] up top we can just rule that out for right now but it almost looked like a three center back system

[00:47:28] with almost two wingbacks that from time to time would shift in both a four defensive back system

[00:47:35] and then one would go forward is exactly what we were just talking about Ryan with our wing play

[00:47:40] to help an attack but then you still had a center of defense a mid or two to cover that spot so he

[00:47:47] doesn't have to just kill himself gas himself out sprinting back every time to cover his position

[00:47:53] so it almost felt like we were testing the system out a little bit

[00:47:57] the eighty six minute I can't come off and Myers come on we put on archer and Lakava so yeah he kind

[00:48:05] of slid in that kind of you said five back you know five of the back but it was kind of a three center

[00:48:11] back role right in the middle come on the right hand side yeah I mean you have obviously Lakava

[00:48:17] went up top but this is a player I honestly see who can hit this more than anyone just the way he plays

[00:48:25] yeah he wants to be up there and grabbing goals who doesn't but like I don't think he's one where

[00:48:31] it's a stretch to ask him like hey we need you to do this makeshift and verdict wingback role

[00:48:37] I see him it more so as that player than anyone else on our team wait so you're saying you see Jake

[00:48:43] being that wingback yeah more so just for hit over psychbers well psychbers as in you're doing the

[00:48:50] foreback and Jake almost acts like it and comes forward nah like so he's more so playing like a

[00:48:59] outside winger but he just drops back and lets our we have a lot of center myths so they almost take

[00:49:06] it to drop all the way back well he drops enough to cover but he's our first attacking option out

[00:49:15] well right but that's still normally playing as like a wing as an I can outside guy rather than if

[00:49:21] you use it as segbers you're using a true wingback role where she's taking your back four guy in

[00:49:27] your throw him up into the midfield going forward then so then you're leaving a soul three in the

[00:49:32] back and then that's where your two CDM's come and tuck in and we got really five in the back again

[00:49:39] but segbers is then able to go up and I was thinking more so if we had to do a five back system

[00:49:45] will be playing just the recenter backs where I like yeah I like it was into it yeah I think

[00:49:52] we're on the right page where you're talking more so as like the classic four back and we do that

[00:49:57] inverted but yeah going into the for the moment you go into the five back you really have those

[00:50:03] three solid in the middle and then those two are playing the wingbacks where they go up and then

[00:50:08] like you're saying they held out Jake and the wings and then cut connect through the midfield to

[00:50:12] switch the field of play and that's honestly what I thought we've done quite well with was just

[00:50:18] switching the ball around switching the field of play we're almost at the end of the match we're

[00:50:23] about the 89th minute or so and there was a little play down the box in the Miami players were all

[00:50:30] up in arms trying to claim there's a penalty somebody's grabbing his head he's laying on the ground

[00:50:35] yeah did it die I think it's a dive I think

[00:50:42] Grinwiss learned his lesson he came out he got ball and regardless archer was in front of the

[00:50:48] attacker the entire time until he almost got called off you can see it he almost like makes

[00:50:54] a shift to the side and goes off the ball and the player just falls down we talked about

[00:51:01] the dark arts not too long ago I think this is one of those plays where it's 90th minute

[00:51:08] and Miami's just looking for anything because they haven't had a chance so it's boot the ball

[00:51:12] long and trying to get a penalty call I see nothing from this I really think that was simulation

[00:51:18] on his end and we should have seen a yellow for diving on that yeah you're right archer's coming

[00:51:26] down he's in he's ahead of him he's uh Grinny coming out and kind of lays up a little bit because

[00:51:32] he knows Grinny is going to take care of it then the ball's a little high Grinny gets it and he

[00:51:37] just dies on to that got off last road turf he also added a few rolls around on the ground too so

[00:51:44] you can't really think that's the most serious fall that's happened in the game I do appreciate

[00:51:50] the rolling I think they're left in an awesome job in this game just playing it fair and not

[00:51:58] overreacting to Miami us being in Miami in the say it again a lack of home crowd but

[00:52:07] they guys not even going for the ball he puts his head down and he just tries to run through our

[00:52:10] goalie who's going for the ball which you can't call that 100 times out of 100 you can't call

[00:52:17] that as a foul and I think he made the right choice yeah I don't think Grinny even touches it

[00:52:23] and he's grabbed the top of his head that's just ridiculous but I you know I guess you got to try

[00:52:27] it right I don't know but I agree with you the center official did a fantastic job I thought

[00:52:33] sometimes calls go against you and you start going like wow was he doing but overall I think

[00:52:38] he did a great job keeping control of the game and and calling most calls fairly and evenly

[00:52:46] and you can't ask for better net we've experienced some referees that might not have been

[00:52:52] had their best game I don't say they're not very good referees but might not have the best game

[00:52:57] in calls went against us and this guy I think he did a good job yeah I think for sure that's one

[00:53:02] of those plays that you all kind of just told your brother a second because as a home crowd you

[00:53:09] can see it going their way but very big decision 90th minute home team down by one and to not

[00:53:17] call that I think is a bigger call for him to actually see it and have eyes on it and this is

[00:53:23] one that I think like when you show reps around the league or you teach a class this is one you

[00:53:29] can point to and be like look at just because of the timing of a game or the atmosphere of a game

[00:53:35] doesn't mean you have to just give a call because you think something might happen when you

[00:53:40] what you saw is what you saw so stick to what you saw it's a great point and people miss this

[00:53:47] is that you can only call what you see if you can't see it you shouldn't be calling it if you think

[00:53:52] it happened you shouldn't be calling it a ours out there the assistant referees there to help you

[00:53:58] if have that discussion they're all miked up they're talking each other the whole time

[00:54:02] and gives you an extra set of eyes especially in that situation so thoughts of man the match

[00:54:12] yeah I'm gonna go with goodie eras

[00:54:17] I'm just gonna go different because I know you guys have someone else I'm not gonna take your

[00:54:21] spotlight but I think the I know he only played 60 minutes but the effort that he showed in

[00:54:28] that first half of not only creating honestly most of our chances but the few defensive plays where

[00:54:36] he ran back I mean it just kind of reminded me of mulloy so I have to give it to him just for

[00:54:47] switch it up but the work effort was there and I think he busted his ass and really made the

[00:54:52] difference for that whole first half for us to keep us in it so Brad from my man of the match I got

[00:54:59] my boy md Myers again I got to stick with him again he's gotten both my predictions right for me

[00:55:07] he's done nothing wrong he's gotten us into great play two wins and both starts he's had for

[00:55:14] us this season and he's you know that big man up front pulling two defenders away creating

[00:55:21] those opportunities for Nick up front and I'm not saying that it's all because of md nigg still

[00:55:27] what he's doing is doing something and roll coming together and it's beautiful soccer quite

[00:55:32] quite impressed I'm gonna go half and half I'm gonna go with Nick and md

[00:55:38] Nick's header was just incredible he's got two defenders on him and he puts it with the side of his

[00:55:44] head the bottom corner keeper doesn't even have a chance and I'm gonna go the other halves other

[00:55:50] have to md they stay had the presence of mine to stay in an on-side position and then immediately

[00:55:58] counts forward before anybody else can react I'll give it a second second half man the match

[00:56:05] Taurus thanks for creating that goal we love you again agreed I'll go with that I'll go with

[00:56:12] second half man the match the ricochet key Taurus so Ryan you and I were at the match

[00:56:21] Patrick's off gal event the world doing fun things and you and I were Edmunds O's brewing company

[00:56:28] it's something magical happened quite a few people showed up and there's a lot of fun

[00:56:33] yeah quite a few people there and it was that was my first time being there at a viewing

[00:56:38] party for the battery Edmunds O's I thought it was a great turnout got to meet a lot of the people

[00:56:45] a lot of people haven't got a chance to meet yet and got to hear some feedback about the about

[00:56:50] podcast and I got to talk a little bit more about soccer a little bit more about my background and

[00:56:57] really connected with the community as well I know people would like to hear out hear about my

[00:57:01] shout out I had and wasn't stressed about the game at all when it was tied one-one I want to say one

[00:57:07] more thing fuego so you brought this jersey in the head like burn marks in it for the last match and

[00:57:15] you didn't ever want to mention it because you afraid it would have a bad light but everyone there

[00:57:20] thought that was the coolest thing so tell us what happened last match to get you on fire fuego

[00:57:27] wrong place right time no let's just say wrong place right time

[00:57:32] for the home opener and unfortunately my brand nail home jersey

[00:57:40] suffered some burn marks and it actually kind of looks kind of cool I'll have a picture posted on

[00:57:47] the can and crew website and on Instagram once it gets set back to me from the battery but the

[00:57:53] burn marks have actually burnt all the way through the jersey so it kind of has that priority theme

[00:57:59] but yeah a lot of the fans got to see the jersey and they were quite impressed with it and

[00:58:03] they kind of were hoping to get their hands on their very own so I don't know how to retreat

[00:58:08] those burn marks it's a rough being on the can and crew because there's a lot of sparks a lot of

[00:58:12] fire flying so let's talk about Saturday night Edmond's Oath's another watch party playing

[00:58:21] Rhode Island another road trip what are your thoughts Patrick that's the first meeting so I mean

[00:58:28] I watched a little bit of Rhode Island I think we're gonna have a really good game for the battery

[00:58:35] they they seem a little flat and I mean we're up to third third in the conference and they're

[00:58:43] sitting in 11th so I think we just keep playing how we're playing and I'm I'm excited to see

[00:58:51] the ball in the back of the net six times for us in this game so outside that that's it that's

[00:58:59] your prediction is my prediction Torres at trick he breaks through and he doesn't stop breaking

[00:59:06] through oh I like that Ryan what's your prediction I'm just gonna keep it clean and simple with us

[00:59:13] going up to Rhode Island first meeting I'm gonna play Joslina Kyle we dated with our trip to

[00:59:19] North Carolina for the first time in a while up to to Raleigh area I think the battery could get a

[00:59:25] close win here it shouldn't be a close win the way we saw Rhode Island play last week against Tampa

[00:59:33] you know as soon as the game gets further and further into it they kind of sit in once one go goes

[00:59:38] in multiple will keep coming I just looking for the battery to honestly just keep the clean sheet

[00:59:44] get Greenwiss back on that on that roll on that train and for us I don't want to I don't say this

[00:59:51] in a bad way but for Greenwiss to win the keeper award this year that's gonna be his only way to win

[00:59:56] anything as a keeper it's going to be off clean sheet so when that golden glove award because he's

[01:00:02] not gonna leave the league and saves and he's not gonna leave the league and those types of areas

[01:00:07] just because of the amount of shots he's gonna be facing yeah again that's a testament to our defense

[01:00:13] in front of him so Rhode Island is it sound a draw a draw and they're coming off a loss

[01:00:20] they drew one one against New Mexico first match two two against Monterey Bay and got pummel four

[01:00:27] one against Tampa Bay I'm gonna go three nil to the battery I would like to see Tories get a hat

[01:00:35] trick and it's a smart call because they had not kept the clean sheet this year yet

[01:00:40] I feel as long as we do we're good so any thoughts what kind of style of play we're gonna see from

[01:00:48] Rhode Island they're gonna sit back park the bus try to put the ball over the top like Miami did

[01:00:54] that option up top that really breaks them through against our defense so you got to realize who

[01:01:01] they do have a look front they do have the four were 2023 golden boot winner as their new striker

[01:01:11] from Pittsburgh that is his been sworn the majority of their goals then they've scored every single

[01:01:17] game this season all either from him or plays all for them so that's why I was curious to see if

[01:01:23] Charles and can keep this clean sheet that's gonna be a good test for them is keeping that big

[01:01:28] because this is like a team that has a true true big man but you have to remember we have our big

[01:01:34] guy our big guys most likely coming back to well I'm just and I I mean Pittsburgh's missing him

[01:01:42] do you think do you think Dick was going to get past Archer in this game

[01:01:49] if Archer starts I don't think he will Archer's the beast I think he's gonna have a rough time

[01:01:57] because Archer is gonna be if he's starting Archer's gonna be hungry he's gonna want to make a

[01:02:01] statement he's gonna be hopefully back as our captain and he has been beasting people for several

[01:02:07] years now and I think he's gonna do it again especially on the road up there a little bit cooler

[01:02:13] he's gonna be able to tear it up so following Rhode Island we come back home Tuesday night match

[01:02:21] against the top team in our Eastern Conference did we get an unlucky draw that were playing

[01:02:28] the arguably the best team in the Eastern Conference at home on a Tuesday night when they know

[01:02:34] attendance is gonna be low what do we need to do to counter that pack the point

[01:02:41] brand all the kids you can you pack the point all the all the Charles and kids yeah burnjuries are not

[01:02:51] halfjuries are not torn or all we want you there we want you at the battery stadium patriots point

[01:02:59] it's time for all the regimental troops to show up it's time for bar Charleston all of this show up

[01:03:06] and show Louisville that when you come here no matter what day of the week it's gonna be a tough match

[01:03:12] when you have the 12th man surrounding you beaten on the drums and you have to come with that tunnel

[01:03:19] and see what it looks like when you look at yellow wall dead in the eyes you got fear struck in you

[01:03:26] yellow wall we'll talk about the yellow wall later Saturday night 730 if you can't make it down to Edmunds
