I don’t have an issue with Borjan not being the starter going forward but those goals aren’t on him 

He fucking starts doing tricks, everything goes downhill and then he grabs grays head and deserved a red card. First goal also should’ve been saved even if golden chance.

We are back to pre-brotherhood level.

One step forward two backwards

I honestly think they figured out that they were bigger and stronger and we had no support.

I hate two in the middle.

I have to laugh at this, because I've been saying it doesn't work for us 

[Jack1997]

We’d be lucky if De Fougerolles even answers our calls after that shit show

[Dominic94]

It’s sad because we had ideas in the first half but we’re over reliant on Davies and teams figured that out. We are so much better than this and we should beat this Jamaica team, but we can’t break down the opposition.

I'm sure I agreed, if I saw it.

Bilo needs to go. The subs did noting. If he cant get the guys up for this then is done.

This was an immature performance, all around. As good as we seemed in the first half, we were rushed and naive on the counter and did not bury the game when we could. Second half we were also naive, but we added some defensive immaturity to the mix. 

These guys need more games. Loads of potential, but the soccer IQ is not where it needs to be. Maybe having to qualify for COPA through the backdoor is what we need: more games, more chances to learn how to play coherent, cohesive football.

Agree except if we won we’d play the same amount of games if not more in the nations league semis and perhaps finals.

I'm confused here about the blame here.  We gave up two goals because we gave up the ball on tackles with the rest of our team moving in the opposite direction.  Can't give up the ball like that.

Got unlucky in some big moments. That's football. I don't think any of the players acted like they believed they had already punched their ticket.

We weren't as tidy in the second half, and we seemed incohesive. There were a couple of times before the wheels fell off where I could see Kamal shouting for the guys to come back to receive a pass.  We were racing forward with the glory of the next goal in our brains.  So, yeah, I think we got a head of ourselves.

Rowe for Eustaquio when they are down to 10 men was mind blowingly stupid.

[Jack1997]

Away goals is also a stupid rule

Exactly. AND our guys shouldn't have been taking off up the field like a horde of hungry Huns. We lost our discipline.

Lol come on.

Borjan’s half-second juggle had nothing to do with Eustaquio’s horrendous giveaway, the iffy penalty and Kone’s giveaway. First goal should have been saved? All he could do was stick a leg out and hope he got lucky. Let’s be real - Borjan wasn’t a problem tonight 

[InglewoodJack]

Even Biello’s non subs were weird. He was gonna bring Vitoria on, then didn’t, then Osorio, then no one, then Osorio later? No strategy just vibes

Shit. Good point. Now I'm depressed again.

[DeRo_Is_King]

I don't want to hear excuses after this one. They got a pen. We were up a man for more than 15 minutes. David missed a sitter. They hit the bar. It wasn't as lopsided as everyone wants to believe.

We need a third because no chance Jamaica doesn’t score again.

You called that very early.  Good job.

[Mattd97]

truly pathetic half. these guys just seem like they expect to win. the turnovers were atrocious. no care with the ball. allowing davies to take every corner. no real urgency. it seemed every jamaican was out working us the whole half. they just play like they think theyre entitled to a win. just a spectacle

Bailey also missed 3 sitters in the first leg.

The biggest punch in the gut would be if this is the last we see of LDF

Did you see what he did to gray? If the ref sees it that’s a ref card

[Califax]

Another Mauro Biello coached team choking away a comfortable lead in a two-game aggregate series. 
 

This one isn’t nearly as fun as 2016. 

[VinceA]

I feel like the bigger story eventually will be LDF rejecting a March call up.
