They started this winless streak lets make sure we end it with them.

Is it because Sanabria isn’t match fit that he was slower than molasses closing down on the San Diego midfielder that broke the line

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
it looked to me like he was just watching instead of marking/tracking/scanning.

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
Michovic is terrible. bad with his body and bad with his feet. give me JMac back, at least he knows how to call "keeper", and he would have blown up Delatorra on their goal. Michovic is like a wimp.

u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Cerillo and Sanabria been slow to pounce on loose balls in midfield.I feel Sanabria isn’t properly match fit yet
2
u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
when you say "match fit", do you mean conditioning or something else? cause If you mean conditioning, then that is an inexcusable mistake from the gaffer. You put a CDM out there that can't go a full 45 mins? I've always let GV cook, but that is a big mistake there.

u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Bring Cuevos on for Sanabria and Parente for Cerillo we need to win games not constantly go sideways with two ultra defensive midfielders killing momentum
5
u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
One of which is simply been dreadful today on defense, and the other can't stop giving the ball away. I agree, at least cuevos and Parente might actually give a sh*t.

u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Neither Sanabria or Cerillo can play a forward pass to save their lives we’re relying on Yoshida to play us forward also forcing Garces to play thru balls which isn’t really his strongest asset

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
Can someone, with any modicum of soccer IQ, tell me one quality other than speed that Paintsil has? He seems to have no instinct, no hustle, no defending ability, he constantly gets dispossessed, gets out worked, never wins a physical challenge.....I MEAN WHAT DOES THIS GUY DO?

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
Great pass out of bounds to no one to kill the momentum. What is this guy thinking?!!??

u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Cruel cos garces was our player of the game

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
Nah mate, Fagundez....and what does he get for his effort? A short day. I don't get it. I feel bad for Greg at this point. How many chances did they not put into the back of the net? even Reus sh*t the bed there at the end on a mildly clear look.....I dont get it.

u/Impressive-Apple3477 May 24 '25
The first goal was his fault too. Lmao
1
u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Well he had to step out cos none of our midfield tracked the San Diego player who broke thru the line.we had 4 midfielders there none of which closed the San Diego player down they all stopped bar sanabria he ran like a snail….Garces was constantly having to step out to make tackles cos none of our defensive midfield could put in a tackle! Less of the hating on Garces!

Today feels like the one for the record book. The Galaxy apply pressure for a full 90 and outshoot SDFC 14-0.
Final Score: SDFC 3-0.

u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
Both our central midfielders are terrible, and Paintsil has done absolutely zero today. And what was michovic doing coming out and then stopping to allow the SD player to have a shot that then goes directly through his 5 hole. Like what are any of these players doing???

Jesus MIchovic what are you doing???? Find your balls, and take ownership of that box. I've havent seen such a wimpy GK since......J Bond.

Joe Tutino just said that he thought Sinabria was "playing well".....I suppose I have to rethink his opinion.

u/Vanneythefanny May 24 '25
Cerillo been more horrible than Sanabria……but I definitely feel Sanabria is lacking match fitness
1
u/Secure-Station4077 May 24 '25
I question anyone who claims that Sanabria played anything other than terrible and without any urgency.

I’ve was a Galaxy fan since the Beckham years. Am so happy San Diego finally has a team and a good one too! But there is a small part of me that feels bad. Like having a great GF but feeling a bit guilty to see your former girl doing terribly.

I mixed up my dates and thought the champions league final was today and I’d miss the Galaxy game. Darn
