He is clearly not the player he was last year. he has either gotten complacent or he is unhappy - someone so relatively young shouldnt have such a dramatic change in their game play in less than a years time. Maybe push him up to forward for a while? Who knows. Superliga has been a good watch this year. That I will give it. Fred needs a kick start for you.

The funny thing is, Peralta is too damn slow to get too far forward. The whistle would blow for halftime before he got there. (He's still my guilty vice on this team though, for some reason I just like his guile - go figure.) We're proving to be a bit thin at the CB position. //Wait, this is MLS. We're thin at EVERY position.// Actually I'd like to see Ryan Cordeiro too on Saturday. Why the hell not? You know what? Let's do what Germany did to Hungary back in '54 and not tip our hand at ALL leading up to the second game with them. You know, the game that actually counts. Let's put out THIS lineup on Saturday: Thorpe Zaher--P. Carroll--Barlow--Carvallo Murphy--Thompson--Dyachenko--Kirk Fred--Maessner I'd like to hear Kinnear's response when we trot THAT out. "Carvallo at LEFT BACK?!?" John Maessner gets tired of his youth players and unretires, saying he'll do it himself. Fred gets to play with the B team. Carvallo? I'm being nice. Let's get him on the books. What could it possibly hurt? If ever there was a game that meant nothing (I mean.....NOTHING), this next one is it. Besides, I always liked Maessner. I'm sure he'd make a good Forward. At 39. People...don't give me any of that garbage about getting through to the next round somehow with a 1-2 record. We're not beating Houston by 3 (watch Atlante and Chivas draw anyway). Why on earth would we want to go through more of this...this... SuperLiga? I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Union Station with my tongue. Why was Burch in the center? The funny thing is, Peralta is too damn slow to get too far forward.

Wouldn't exactly say I'm "up his butt," but that one touch cross he sent over to Doe was impressive. Disagree about Thompson.
