2023 Charlotte FC Game Thread

Glad I stayed home to watch this paint dry.

What does it take to move off of a DP? Józwiak isn't it. As mentioned by others the formation/positions are hard to understand. We came alive last year when Świderski played underneath the striker. I don't understand how Jones sees the field over Santos or Bender. I get the defense may need some time with all that has happened but on paper it should be way better.

So glad I went fly fishing yesterday. Standing in a freezing river for 8 hours was far more enjoyable than watching this game would’ve been apparently

Lineup vs Orlando

the back line looks good, I like Vargas starting on wing and Bronic back to midfield, but benching Swid? Also why does Lattanzio hate Nunos.

Team looks good tonight, Lattanzio saved his job… for now.

Yea. Have to agree here. Wondering what the next move is to get vender, santos and Swiderski on the field.

Yeah it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out.

[MechaZain]

Cross from Lindsey was gorgeous. Never bench him and Vargas again. Jones did work too.

Copetti is a bad man. Really want to see two strikers up top more but this was a critical win

[Spot]

Holy crap a win and Bender saw the field, what a night!

[MillionDollarCam]

Marks really did his thing tonight, you have to wonder why he wasn’t playing earlier.

[MtnJax]

My only switch going forward would be to drop Bronico to CDM and then start Swiderski in the 10. And once Guzman is healthy he should see the field over Tuiloma. He has not been good so far

Maybe give Nuno a start at RW since the midfield is so crowded. If they’re insistent on getting Joz on the field, maybe try him at LB rather than Bronico. He at least has WB experience

What the F was that. Good lord

[MtnJax]

What happened to the tram and tactics we finished last season with? I’m so over this BS we’ve been running. Bronico needs to drop back to the CDM where he’s best at. Hell, play him and Jones there in a 4-2-3-1 and quit inverting Afful and neutering Vargas by making him play so deep

[TheCasillas]

Can someone help me understand how that goal wasn’t a foul? I feel like in premiership that’s a call 9 out of 10z
