sutton better play good as hell and who ever in the starting lineup against toronto cuz we have to win

looks like Borman, Stammler, Ubi, and Sutton are starting with Kandji up top, as Henry has a groin strain. hmm, crucial game for the B-team to win in order to stay in second place in the East. And the Galaxy are coming this weekend …yikes!

Comes at a pretty bad time. I’m assuming then that we’ll not see Marquez play again for the team until the end of the month v San Jose, and that Sutton will be in between the posts for Saturday’s game v LA. Sigh…

what???? your wong marquez will not play for us tomorrow against toronto but he will play when we face L.A
August 10, 2010 at 1:50 PM |
I have a feeling Bouna and Marquez will start for us on Saturday. Dane and Miller may come in a s subs… and i ma pretty sure Henry will play vs TFC tomorrow!

Henry can play v. Toronto, but I doubt he will play the whole 90.
We must not lose that game. And we must win at least one of the next 2(v. Tor/Gal.)
I would be very happy with 4pts. Luckily were home.

Champions are measured by facing the best, and beating them. In MLS, the name of the game is roster depth. Regardless of who’s on the field on Wednesday and Saturday, if the Red Bulls want to be considered a championship-caliber team, they need to win. I’ll be cheering for them, either way, but the schedule is no excuse for a loss at home. Last year was the year of excuses – this year is the year for results. Go Red Bulls!
