wasn't overjoyed Zaha was taking my boy Vargas' spot (one of my favs)......but he did a really good job of making me not being able to care about it in his Charlotte FC debut.

I like Vargas too but for our first 3 years our attack was way to predictable. Building slowly out of the back bring it down the wing and make low percentage crosses. Apparently at halftime Zaha got into the whole teams Ass and laid it out for them. We need to play fast we need to play direct and it worked. I'm excited to see what we can be this year if they continue their improve every year model we should have a top 4 seed in the East.

yeah, I liked what I saw from Zaha.   Like what he is coming into overall and what they did last year.  He could be a really great add especially when he gets some chemistry going w/ the guys.

poor showing by Charlotte FC Sunday at Miami.....

Losing 1-0 despite Miami going a man down in the first half.

Yeah, yesterday was as trash as the home opener was awesome. Pick up some points this weekend and all is well.

Zaha was ass but he was getting fouled or drawing 3 defenders everytime he got the ball so I'd have been frustrated too.

Kicked Cincinnati's ass 2-0 yesterday. Patrick Agyemang might be Him.
