"What did he do. Well in this game I thought he played well with his feet. Moving the ball out to the other sides. I thought he made a couple of good stops in the first half and he. You know that there wasn't a lot of chances for him to make an opportunity to make us save or be in the right position the second half because as soon as as soon as the floodgates what happened was to me is we got outcoached. I mean he put in three fast guys control the middle of the field and stuff the ball right down the throat. Because he said these these centrebacks are not gonna stop us and we're just going to roll right down the center. They didn't even bother to go to the wing because they were just going down the center and the first half they tried to get on the wing and they just went right down the center. And you know it wasn't like our centrebacks can keep up with that speed. That pace was just killing us and they just as soon as they got. The ball pushed it right down the throat. I think the problem with the shaver without a position. You know that's what. I would say not aggressive enough on the beginning goal. Not not not not aggressive. Enough stapled to his line on the buchanan. Go on on the way to the left hand side. And then i would say that i would you know i i don't know about. I don't know if it's positioning. The thing that bill does is he makes he makes reflect. Saves it probably shouldn't make right. That's what that's what that's what wins us points. And that's why he's still valuable the ball. The the winning goal by jones at his feet to screen is not deflected that save. You can't say obviously it's you can't prove hypothetical but you can see him. Make that safe right. You can see him laying afoot out and make messy vera either goals have been scored in life do games. They're going they're going five hold on him. They're going right at him. I yeah i those. They'll need diving on that pile on top of it and just smothering the ball. That's i think he. I think he made goes into that pop. But we can't compare him to that. I mean we gotta compare them to cite who. I saw him play earlier in the in the year. When before bill was ready he was nothing special. Either so i mean he wasn't. He wasn't rich rich rich. I'm disagree okay. Kip ascites was nothing special. And i think kept. Kevin did it in training. He absolutely deserves to be out here. i'll go back and watch the highlights of that columbus and and In san jose games that got him benched. But i don't ever remember seeing him seeing the ball go right at his feet right at his hands and may be. Maybe it did happen. But i don't remember the feeling of man that should be say that should be a saved ball I'm sorry i i i was a goalkeeper to in high school. I wasn't a good goalkeeper. I completely disagree I completely disagree. I thought i thought. I didn't think kevin cost us this game. But he did not. He was not good enough. And you need your goalkeeper to step up and make a play and he he did not You could even argue. This goes back to even the columbus win when the first goal that sort of brought columbus back into this game was off his mistake So this has been this has been this has been a worrying trend from him And.

"I have written here in capital letters. Calamity a break off of dc. United corner horrible. Defending brianna cannot clear the ball at his feet acquis of all sorts of the top of the box and then kevin can save a ball kicked most directly at his feet. And they're down three one. Eighty minute yeah. That was that was bad from camden Bad from the defense not gonna not gonna completely absolve the defense of that don't but again it's it's it's it's the same thing last time the loss to nashville also probably not all it's fault But when the ball's kicked it you basic professional goalkeeper should recover should be able to at least make a safe to that And he did. And i think that is becoming the desert coming the story with him. He got a second chance. I i don't know whether i agree with it or not That's for that's for sure. A lot of fans would disagree with it. But i mean i do i do give i do give lozada credit I think he went into this game. Thinking we're probably not gonna win But i want to set us up for. And i want to give you know. Give kevin another chance. And i think he has played himself out of the lineup I think sites should come in Bill each should get healthy right now. The directions probably either way either way donated hamstring whatever it takes and that was don jones for the for the the goal there for the eventual winner. It's a backbreaker. I mean it's like you know you're up a man now even the man. The man looks worse. And again you you again. This is the same situation with the It's less embarrassing. I guess than the national game but they were in a position to try to get a point out of this game And at least get something in get you know holder heads up high as they had in and they they weren't able to get it So yeah brilliant i. i'm trying not to be too hard on brilliant because brilliant is is recovering is having is having to recover from keeper. That's not playing well And he is having to do so much out there on the team defensively I understand the the notion of trying be hard on him But i think. I think the whole defense. There's some trust issues with kempin i. He did have one. I'll give him credit. He did have one pretty pretty good saver. He came off his line. Got the ball But the rest of his decision making and just his overall tendencies have been have been bad I think it's time for a change. Yes i think. Brianna may have had the best game out of a bad defensive performance. I think three of them. I think he may have been the best which is not saying it. J rex is i think brilliant has more saving than kevin in the past four es had more important saves he's had more saves to keep this team alive I'd say to thing..

"He could not play full ninety so he was offered as sixty seven. I think it was a preplanned sub. That sixty five get him off. Good shift i think. I think that we have to be happy with that. And be ready for him In atlanta to repeat that and maybe get a little bit longer. Gristle also comes on for yao. J. rag says that they thought y'all was good in the wingback position. I thought i thought he had moments As as much as you can probably expect player in his first start of the season. I think it was his first start. And if it wasn't as i start it was it hasn't been too many numbers in front of me there and the sixty nine th minute before the red card brilliant saves again off the line camp in a little bit wrong-footed As he has been a little bit quite often lately and beyond saves off line I have i have here. Both in continues to be playing with his head with his hair on fire I think we had our our. I sorta good chance. The second half was by raina in the seventieth minute and sort of a cut in with his right foot Sort of at at turner with a little bit over turner had to jump in and tip it over but that was probably the first best chance for united. Then we have the red card with process in fallon assad why was thinks. Nineteen minutes eleven v. Eleven If they were gonna score that should help a little bit. It would be nice. Maybe maybe get an opportunity there Raina our arena responds immediately with caldwell on for bo try to shore up. The defense and ola comes on for us. Autumn seventy six minutes so Decided smelling a little bit of blood. Here thinking we can We could maybe equalize didn't did not happen. Unfortunately there wasn't a whole. I'm even those first ten minutes. There wasn't a whole lot and then. Dc gets off a corner kick caught on the counter Which is becoming a bit of a bit of a worrying trend as we go away. We're back and we're back and not only not only that before that meant there was there was a play that looked kind from from the naked. I like had been a dog. So a red card In the seventieth minute birnbaum rain against dispossessed trying to dribble through to people on the for. No reason didn't need to do that. did it anyway. He's a couple of times tonight. I wonder if i wonder if they when they review tape. If we're not going to be like don't stop don't do that But birnbaum get sort of muscled off By buca on the break there's a foul pulled him pulls him down right outside the box Free-kick comes to nothing but that was a yellow card moment. Could have been something from your referees from the referees perspective where you at all concerned or no did a little bit. I mean. I think an argument for dogs is there. I think the fact that you know. It's funny it's funny. We saw I think we'll him stab. Get a red card. And the argument was that there was another defender right there. The referee was confused as to who to give the red card city. So i think the show of restraint i. I'm sure new. England fans will disagree So she after getting the right card. I i think you've got to be concerned. But i think the fact that you have to defenders there It ended up being being very much dive. I think that ends up being a red that might go to vieira now might get completely overturned completely based on that so Or at least you go back to the initial foul which would not which would not have been Which would not have been dog zone. My mind yup Seven minutes later we have the we have the real the real problem here..

"Four new england new england past the ball two hundred and forty six times to one hundred and twenty six times in dc which is about right of as far as the way that they were playing were set up but still turner had three saves a two campaigns one in first half so The second half saw a whole bunch of A whole bunch of suits right after that buca came on for bunbury a screwing my my My reps to win bunbury to score. Far light didn't work out both incomes on for captain and buchanan a very good young players come on from mossy l. voting. If you'll remember. I'm sure a had a very brief career with decent had exactly zero minutes played for in games accounted for dc united and was like oh traded for a bag of balls or whatever happened to columbus the end of the year. He's resettled out new england also. If you'll notice on the bench for new england was calling a former lodhi netted player and Labor's junior former destroyer. So i don't know ver not normally on the on the team or on the on the bench. I wonder if they gave him as a little bit of a. Gimme You know play against your euro team but the second half Bruce arena sparks life into this team and they came out Extremely aggressive and decent editor did not have much to do As the goal serta poor in. What did you. What did you see in the being in that second. Half i mean i saw. I saw what i expected. Which wasn't New england was gonna come out and respond. They were gonna try to push the game. They need to come from behind And they grow to them You know a nice goal. I'm not gonna. I'm gonna harp a little bit more. I guess on the defensive play on. There's a lot of i one thing that's sort of been bothering me about the scene. Defensively both both goals. But the i can't remember the the. I guess the leading goal. It's just a ball over the top but seems to me. There's a lot of i. I remember when impressed me most about this team. Defensively was their ability to kind of sort of attack even when defending they were. Gonna you know pressure. The ball make difficult And in both the the the the first goal they let in from from Makmur which was a great strike I i did..

"So you know they're gonna either they're going to rotate or they're gonna be tired so i think they're they're in more of a desperation but they need all the points they can get there. They don't have really where they can kind of pick and choose. They're trying to to claw their way back into the Back into the eastern conference but still an important game on saturday. This this is gonna look. I i will. I will be worried if they lose on saturday. Then then you're gonna start to see me. Act a little worried about this team right now. There's no panic. There's no worry. Right now yeah. New england obviously came into this game with three points in first place. They leave with forty six points in the first place Their team even when they don't start all your starters. The second half Was was just a different team for the first twenty five thirty minutes walk through that. So the the the the the first element of the game. It's exciting is a decent eddie goal on early lead that no one expected in tenth minute. Paul scores assist from florez Sort of a floor as end areola combined to win a turnover sort of with with the high press there in the first ten minutes anyway They steal our gets played in left. Finish l. toepoke but injured himself on on the goal Sort of maybe. I don't know if it was on the goal or the first steps after the goal of warning the goalkeeper But that was that and rainy came on in its wealth. Minute built active. I think still at that point For for much of the first half decent-looking control floor as was commanding. The ball floors at was asked me for the ball. Commanding the ball playing in players on all sides. I left it right. He was Commanding i think for the first forty five minutes. What did you think oh he was. He was excellent. I mean this was we talk. I feel like we. We've mentioned several times This is his best game in dc united uniform This wasn't this was another level of being a best game. This was he was one of the best players out there on the field. Which is what you want And he looked active. It wasn't just little little flashes you saw. You saw the beginnings of what you could call a complete game. He was he was doing really well with the i. I think i said on twitter and in a badly worded multiple. Misspelling tweet that. It's almost like the the the quarterback option play type of type of player. Where he would just kinda dribble the ball. Hold the ball and sort of suck defenders in in sort of play Players what. I do wonder if there was a actual starting striker out there..

"So certainly. I think there were moments. Where the dash were you know. somewhat somewhat resurgent but the the data had spirit had fifty eight and a half percent of possession in the first avenue. Eighty five percent passing accuracy. So pretty good game. The dash the dash came out as probably took control the second half. Unfortunately the dash toward wooster Scores a another another another goal. That was probably. I don't think goal of the week but certainly a very well-struck opportunity for for torch user. It is nice when when the defense just kind of it pulls off and sort of lets you waltz into the box. I think i think the I think the dash were expecting a pass. I forget who was who was out I forget who was out who is out on the On the On sort of the left side. On that go i remember there was a player sort of drifting out and and we were all we. We are on the street. We're like make the pass make the past. And she's like no take myself in shows what we know She she buries it in the quarter to nothing. You're feeling pretty good. Tara own with the assist on that goal You're feeling pretty good. You're like all right we're going to cruise and we're gonna we're gonna cruise we're just gonna cruise to a Two to nothing. Victory and it was a corner kick the The the kryptonite for all watching experience. Yep just go Scores of a corner Sort of a member and critically sort of evolved dribbling round the the box bit and get stuck in so to at that point. The sixty minute The spirit were very much on their backward after the so two to nothing lead. I think i think i made a stupid crack about the the cliche about dangerous goals. A dangerous games down to near zero but it appeared to be that way because then Michaela bomb A a washington dad or houston dash academy player who had just signed that weekend against saddam and had scores Scores the goal in the eighty. Third minute and that was somewhat of a gut punch even on the road right. I think that there's it's always tough when you're in a position to be upset withdraw on the road but you are sometimes when you're when you have a two goal lead in fifty third minute you think all right. Well we'll just see this out. Let's just be strong here and that happened. Unfortunately yeah i think if you if espn's again one of those things you ask fans the beginning of the game. Hey the game finishes due to. You're like okay. You know maybe slightly disappointing. But it's on the road you know. After the week the spirit had which will get into in a minute. I would've taken that but then you know you see the the the to the To nothing results that leading for most of the game and then just kinda lose it and to lose it in the fashion they did. I think the the setpiece goal was maybe not as worse. I think the second goal was definitely bad. It was a complete defensive Complete defensive breakdown nielsen and sam. Stop also both had mistakes that led to the Quaker yep so. We're obviously a very very much waiting. For keller hero emily sonnet to return to the full because they appear to be. I think we were all kind of like whoa..

John does school things just happened when backdoor miss. This is going back to our roots. We will be live. Wednesday as a makeup post-game guessing to like that stuff so we're going to keep rolling with it When the team travel in dc travels to the new england revolution But before we get into dc before we talk about what happened. Last night's We would we do wanna talk spirit spirit or actually probably the majority of the show because of what's happened With everything with the club and the team and just everything involved with that Let let's i guess we'll start with the shall we start with the news john or should we. Should we talk about the the game. We'll talk about the game. Yeah and then we'll get we'll get deep into the all the things along prior to that this last week. Yes as the washington spirit traveled to the traveled to houston take on the houston dash which they have been. I believe perfect against. I don't let they've lost game to them and that continued though. Not the way not the way we would expect The big news. Of course not coming up on the bench was that trendy rodman Did not start. The game started on the bench. Probably the spirits. Most exciting player Ashley sanchez was out there A game that certain well. It started very very well For the for the washington spirit Opened up with a excellent excellent excellent goal for goldensohn go the week just a rocket into the corner her first goal of her career professional career and think we i don't know she had an eagle. She i went to the daily for a bit. So she said she Once used by ford. I think which is australia. She's scored in the post. Game talked about her goals from the old days but Aubrey bledsoe was with her during the post game. And it's very clear. That page talks about her goalscoring prowess frequently all the time so when she talked about that she started the last so i think this was a i think that they they were enjoying themselves. Having a having had that goal. Finally gordon real yet yet. And i think it's a it was a very nicely well-taken goal off the corner kick very pretty early in the game if i remember correctly. Revenue digger. Memory back guys. We gave the by the way we. Yeah we did a whole Holy which you can go. Watch a entire re stream of the game with our commentary Which is which is a lot of fun a lot of fun to watch And then I will say the spirit definitely offensively. I don't know if they really ever got much going in this game There were a couple opportunities Uh other than that not not a not a whole lot. that really comes to mind Defensively i think they held. They held strong. I think the dash generated some chances But it sort of seemed like i. It's like this game definitely swayed. It was the spirit. You know right off the right off the gecko obviously with the page nielsen goal. Then we saw the dash kinda take over a little bit open. Start to push the what's not then. You're right there. So that was the first half i think was largely. I don't know what say spirit dominant but houston was not really very challenging. The goal there was. It was a close opportunity minutes after the goal where Tear mikio hit the crossbar. An ashes advocates. Ray richardson..

"Trained. We're gonna win a lot of games and Restarting see the results restarting to see you know are hard workers achy painting off and i think that all the players are in tune with it keep sticking to each other keeping positive vibes on mindset in critical far in this in this year. What's it like. And i think that this is the case for both the coaches. You've been under as far as a coach that believes in youth and wants to give the youth and opportunity you. You saw playing time Last season You seeing it now. Obviously whenever you're healthy you're pretty much the the eleven. What's it like for you and the other players to realize like if you're if you're here and you're trying hard and training in your performance and training that you're not gonna get buried on the bench necessarily you're going to get opportunities. Griffons now griffin got a good run in these friendlies. He had a really good game in toronto. Maybe you're gonna see him more particularly with paul. Maybe i'll being album maybe even being longer. But what's the mentality of a young player. When you see coaches that are like yeah. I'm gonna put the best players in the field. That doesn't really matter what your salary was. Or how long you been here. But that's that's how he feels. What was that like for me. I look into into that too much. I show up by do what's asked were mice offer opportunities. I get that. I make sure that Whatever opportunity i get. I don't fumble it you know it. It's hard for a kid. My age to be in the position that i'm in and i'm gonna make sure that i am representing all the kids out there.

I think pablo did an article. The athletic that was talking about a meeting. That cat held afterwards hat. Everybody's like up on the wall. I don't know if that actually happened or not. But that sounds i remember saying like i'm glad they don't do that. Podcasters like we would. We would not stand up to scrutiny really well. How's that improve. How was your fitness improve. You had to look at your fitness your numbers now if they're still keeping metrics on on a weekly basis where you at now versus a year ago is it is a dramatic or is it. Are you still.

"You're not in the game. After that everyone was wanting more after that first goal came from nyc to see in a one zero up than know. We are all devastated that result. Happy how ended so. I think this game was no payback kind of for a missing three points since in a shot from the minute the The ref blew the whistle. But we're all you know engaged or all fighting for all you know into the each other in just showed up in match. Competence was awesome. And i don't know if you. I don't know if you've edited opportunity to watching the spirit games. I was there this weekend covering the spirit game. Same mentality like. They came out north carolina courage like the team our team and from the start. They were just like. We're better than this team. Everyone's confident everyone's dribbling and it was the same as a strong game. It was just funny watching back-to-back games just two teams. United has been where they've been in the standings spirit have been sort of in the middle and they come out and play you know former champion not too long ago in toronto and just like this is our house we in arrest everybody and it doesn't matter it was fun weekend for dc fans of like the last as you were coming up. Did you play a lot of wingback or is this. Is this new for you. This is new for me. Mostly you know all my career played right wing or afford play ten but playing this more defensive before these turn pro Much of a defender. Maybe sometime take plays often. Defending dingo into tackles go into challenges. Headers all this. And i learned that you know maybe this right wing or or ten is not my actual position. I don't know. I still don't know where my extra position is. Just trying this out wing back role and to say the least. I love it. I love having being two. We decided player When that can having the freedom with a coach tactics system that can go forward those who also having the responsibility to drop back and you know i love the one doors going against me Just being that you know position is it's interesting one 'cause you coach wants we all in the box and then out of nowhere. I'm all we are box making that long run back you know making attack will make him defensive play so I'm starting to like it a lot. More getting used to Stony touches in tunes into my defensive rule. But you know that's gonna keep coming more play that role in the more assistance from the are back. Line or the coaches. It's probably easier to learn that The like a small elements of defense than it is to learn how to be creative. Offensively like i think that you're coming. I think it's a better attribute to go backwards and learn the wingback position than being a left back. That like we love you to get forward and take guys on across the ball. Maybe become a an offensive threat. So i feel like you're and also to you looking. I was thinking about the national team and they're always looking for help in that position..

"Molest talent in this national team if you wanna be deep if you wanna make world cup qualifying runs. These qualifying rounds are going to be brutal. So i actually think right now that I think that berhalter made the absolute one hundred percent rate choice in what he did and he said we have so much talent in europe. I think we can be competitive in this gold cup. We may not win it. But that. But i wanna know who i can trust. I wanna get some assessment of these players. I want to build out some depth here. I want to know and we got some good information from this game So there are a lot of people that are you know i i i saw on on. I'm gonna watch football. America's cassette salazar and her gomez. Were apparently ready to to light into this to this us roster and and gregg berhalter. But i think. I think he wanted to go. He wanted to go in this game. He picked safe lineup to get the win. He got the win. Got three points. That's what matters. The more interesting is going to be replaced at martinique and obviously the gaming. It's candidate has candle. Looked really really good against martinique Canada is on the on the on the prefaces of being of being a decent national team. the they if they can get out of their own way. I think they'll be a a really really good national team coming up But basically some some but the carolina kosta was really good obviously Sam bean's gets the goal Really actually a really nice play. I think it was walker zimmerman on the past kind of opened things up. He had a really good game too. I really like walkers german. You wanna talk about a place that needs centreback depth. It's the us men's national team. I think walkers could provide something like that especially in qualifying and then you'll see have a more. I thought he was really good He was excellent. I thought in this game players. That didn't do good obviously In the industry. I think the the the the player that gets the most hate Of any national team player right now is jackson. You'll And i think he He kind of he kinda deserves it. He kinda deserves it in a way And to the espn pro-mexico guys were looking to take the us after they until the tree tied tnt. Yeah mexico going out and tying Trinidad and tobago obviously a horrible injury. for Chucky lozano in that game. I think that definitely took the wind out of the sales But i think the difference between mexico's trying to do what the us trying. Us is trying to figure out. Okay who who are guys that we can bring on a you. Know a a world cup qualifying. Whose are whose our bench. What's our bench can look like. Because we know the starters we know basically who the stars are and who can we fill out some roles Mexico needs to go out and win this game. So they're bringing they're bringing their eighteen So certainly wasn't a good showing from them Other than that..

"I do wonder. I do wonder the timing of this is an interesting Because there weren't any games. He played pretty much throughout the something he picked up in training. I'm wondering if they identified something and they are like again. Have this now And basically you know they. They do do that worth while he can play through it but then he's eventually going to be need surgery We'll see we'll see what happens. I don't know the timing of this just seemed a little interesting. We get a guy back and then it's down for an injury. So i bet even happens on. I bet we will get media availabilities this week to get some more answers on on his long term prognosis and with the injury. Actually as but Like you said we have more depth there than we do other places it just it. You know he's played eleven starts Other than the one game where he got punched in the eye. Did he play that game where he posted the picture on instagram where he had a black eye and then no he did so that was the one yep yep so he is. He's been a rock for this team. Dip yeah absolutely miss them. I think the team can manage with him. I'm hopeful this is like a wanted to month type thing and he can kinda come. Come back for the home stretch That is my That that is my hope That is my hope. Kim kim again helping us out here. Hindsight was hurt in the. Afc game so okay. There we go. Hopefully it's hopefully. It's like you know. Let's cross our fingers. Everybody if you have any special injury dances do it. For paul and do it for a brennan. Because i think that's where we're coming right. Now right we want to have all our guns At the table here we are. We are really starting to part of the season where we really want to pick up some points and get. Yeah there's and there's some tough games coming up for dc. Obviously the big one right now against philli. I wish we're going to have a preview. The duke by the podcast will become an envelope preview. that game so we'll save. What are some of our thoughts. So that game for that but But yeah it's it's You don't wanna lose momentum you have the momentum you have everything. United stated im- article is firmly in the playoffs. And we certainly want to keep him there. All right we're going to wrap up a bit Talk little us school cup. One victory over haiti John i know you have given your opinion on on on on goals but did you watch this game or did you just you had. Because he saw the paul injury. Yeah i'm not going to say for sure that. I didn't turn the game off shortly after the injury i think i stopped watching and a half. I think i was like listen. I'm not gonna pines on clover country. They had that they had they had the. The nations league was at nations league but they won was at the tournament that they want us..

"Yeah also want to also say i hope all's okay i mean you know i'm sure i'm sure we all do and john saying he doesn't care about international soccer. I don't never will. Okay so you're saying is that you said that all is everybody benefit. I don't think all those really benefited from the system at all. I don't think it really fits him. Don't think it's kind of like trying to try. It's like josie toronto. He doesn't fit the system that we're trying to play. He's not a pressing for. He's not a mover. He's not getting in good position. She had one good goal one game or to really really awesome goals. I can't say anything like that. And then a pk. Well your hoping you're going to make that. And then you had a good game where he basically ran over defend or who. They had basically thrown in the towel. But that point you know but it was still a good goal but still. That's three goals in. How many games have you played. How many look in his goals per ninety look at as he's he's almost in the league in goals per ninety his he's been very efficient with time played. It doesn't seem like it but he also hasn't played that many games. 'cause yeah but i don't produce like he could though certainly not solution for sure he's not is on the long term but i think you're right i think you are i. I don't think we're arguing. The fact he. I don't think he has a a perfect fit for the system. I think the system has improved over previous years. I think he's done better. I think he does better with this system that he did underbid system. I think that's the statistics. Bear that out I but i do not think that he is an unquestioned starter. On a good team. And that's why he's not right now. I think he's he's in contention he's plays paid like a starter like you like. You mentioned rich like he. He's paid to be your your number nine every week. But that's not the case so we've got to adjust and and try to make do the players that we do have at their disposal. Yeah i'd like to see in while he's good compared to the other scores and molest. I don't think there's been as much scoring is. There has been some cheers. You know like especially with guys.

"But yeah i don't know how much you can really. I don't know how much you can really You can really. I guess really draw much from the game. Obviously boulevard. gets the goal. Really nice goal. He does a really nice touch moves around. I am wondering why. We had speculated on the show. We had speculated on the show the part of the reason that boulevard is in Is in loudon right now. Because denied doesn't have the available international spots and have heard that eric sorge is apparently in still in estonia right. Now sony right. Yup yup awaiting a green card. So you can come back and as soon as he gets. A green card is no longer counts as an international for dc united so So basically that all that means that that frees up international sponsor whether the team uses that But i think maybe this was an opportunity for for boulevard. Maybe to show some stuff. And maybe maybe if dc can't doesn't see anything they like they they bring in They bring in they bring in johnny boulevard and have him maybe play a role stevenson capacity. Yeah think which it. He's then well for loudon. I his core. I believe i think maybe two goals from open play in two goals in the penalty spot. I think You know. I don't know like i said it was interesting to see the part. I did see him. Playing with the. I team was good. I think it's great. I think he probably will probably get more minutes on wednesday. I think for exactly that reason is sort of evaluate where he is vis-a-vis the rest of the options There are. there's a lot of comments in the chat about how ola is still is still no good. I think. I think all isn't a very good position. Being sort of knocked off the the the unquestioned starting spot. I think that nigel has sort of nigel. Olarte very neck and neck to me right now as far as who should be starting. It's really about matchups in sort of health. I think that i think him. Having a point to prove is only going to benefit these united. I think he had his time in the sun. Sort of like the question starter on questioned. you know. Every he's gonna who else are you gonna play..
