STARTING XI:
11 - Kekuta Manneh
Looks uncomfortable to start the game playing the wing. For every good play he had two bad ones then three average ones. I see Teibert or NRC starting this spot against Chivas.
10 - Erik Hurtado
Worst game he has played in a while. Three games in a row where he couldn't convert. Horrible one on one miss in second half. Is it time to start Mattocks?
9 - Johnny Leveron
A little shaky first 10 minutes. Tried to start the attack going over top. Settles down nice playing with Mitchell.
8 - David Ousted
Didn't have to do much this game. Had some communication errors with Leveron to start the game. He is probably happy with the defensive game in front of him on Saturday.
7 - Steven Beitashour
Very solid outing. Hasn't showed any rust by not playing a competitive game in the World Cup. Was very good in the last 15 minutes shutting down the Sounders attack.
6 - Carlyle Mitchell
Playing well jumping into the midfield when he has to. Very good in the air clearing the box with his jumping ability. Very good link up with Leveron.
5 - Jordan Harvey
Was solid in his half of the pitch. Didn't get sucked in and covered his side of the pitch.
4 - Matias Laba
Solid in the midfield with Koffie. Strong first half linking up with Morales. Played a quiet, steady game. What they expect game in and game out.
3 - Gershon Koffie
Strong on the ball and attacking the Seattle midfield. Was good keeping his head up and knowing what options he had in front of him.
2 - Sebastian Fernandez
Great strike, could get used to those 25+ yard strikes. Good at creating fouls against him and always being around the ball.
1 - Pedro Morales
A great bounce back game after the debacle vs Impact. Controlled the midfield when he needed to and had good numbers of passes that could have lead to goals.
SUPER SUBS:
3 - Christian Dean
Only got one minute of playing time. Looked like a beast standing next to Seattle attackers.
2 - Russell Teibert
Came in at a crucial time where the Whitecaps needed to keep position and finish the game strong.
1 - Nigel Reo-Coker
Played very well coming in for Manneh. Had great jump to join the attack and tracked back well to help out defensively.
