🏃‍♀️DecaturFC

👋 Gonzo the caretaker

🏆Priortize US Open and Leagues?

🤔Qualities of the next manager

1: That starting Xi (albeit not first choice) was chosen and setup to score an early goal. Best we could do was get 56% percentage and .5 XG. That Xi was talented enough to do more and we didn’t. BTW we’ve had the majority of possession in all our losses.

2: Speaking of doing more, Gonzo has consistently talked about simplifying the game for these players, you know what’s not simple? Having MORE of the ball. This team is not capable of playing tiki taka possession ball and Pineda has refused to adjust.

*He said in his presser that he was not expecting LAFC to play with back 5. But they did. So basically a team did something outside of what they normally did in order to obtain a result. Interesting.

3: It’s Embarrassing when we are undone by the simplest of things like balls over the top, & direct through balls that eliminate 3 defenders & not playing to the damn whistle. Tired of hearing praise from Gonzo for the basics when we don’t even execute those.

4: Brooks’ drop off is DEEPLY concerning. We’ve called him Mr Reliable for a reason. He’s been a robot at times with his endurance and consistency and something has happened with his software. He looks defeated, gassed and his service has been crap.

5: “I liked the team’s fight and the chances we created after going down a man” Pineda in is his presser probably. If he genuinely thinks that really starting to play after conceding first AGAIN and going down a man is worthy of praise he needs to go. Truthfully there are plenty of other reasons for him to go. The mentality of this team top to bottom, players to coaches to social media team is wrong. There is no reason to keep him and the staff he brought in.
