2012 Whitecaps Game Thread

Well, that was fun to watch

That may have been one of the most entertaining caps game I have seen. Wow.le toux should have had 3 and why he didn't cross that square ball to hassli is as mind boggling as mattocks red, but I shouldn't haven't paid for my whoile seat, I only used the edge.

And Cannon was an absolute beast!!!

Mattocks is too green and IMHO doesn't deserve the minutes he is getting right now.

Disagree Regs... his speed is crazy and honestly until he got the red that's all the Caps had was him!

Hey Cascades,

Would you like to borrow my spell check? Renaldo was on fire today

The Caps have been an absolute pleasure to watch this year.

Cheers,

How much must a guy weigh in order to be a ref a mls game?

Is it a must to have your gut stick out so far u cant see your willy?

Don't know about that. I thought Chiumiento was pretty special on this day, save for all the dumb little fouls he was committing.

Mattocks is a bit of a one-trick pony. Sure, he's fast as blazes, but once teams figure him out, he will be very east to defend until he rounds his game out a bit.

Any FVSL ttpers see the irony that he wears 22?

We were calling for LeToux's head until he ruined it by scoring. I guess he will be getting another start on Wednesday.

Completely disagree about Mattocks... His speed stretches the back four and creates more space in the middle of the park than anything Hassli could dream of accomplishing... his work ethic is also at a higher level than the "I want it HERE" frenchman... he and Salgado just abused the Seattle D; at the very least he's quality enough that you want him out there to accelerate his development. I dont think he hurts them - the harsh cards notwithstanding...

 

[cascadesoccer]

I agree with mtkb, although I do like Hassli I think Mattocks speed opens the D up a lot. even if the opposition play deeper it allows our midfield to move with more space. I would like to see Hassli and Mattocks up front together for a target/lay off man and a speedster. I think with the addition of Robson, things are going to get even better.

Yeah, that would be interesting. Letoux is playing pretty poorly these days, so to have him watch and see what these two could accomplish would be interesting. Two very different styles could make for some difficult defensive assignments.

And to clarify, I never said that Mattocks played poorly. I just felt that he wasn't the only one doing anything. I like to watch him take off and Husain Bolt the backlines around the league as much as the next guy.

Letoux was definitely having another night of shocking touches leading up to the goal. However, Hassli's moan is starting to annoy me and cause dislike for him. IMO, he doesn't deserve to start tomorrow night, but it will be interesting to see what Rennie does in lieu of Mattocks' suspension. Where's Camilo?

Really?

Is his wife not still in the beautiful people's section? He can moan all day long as long as she is still showing up to games.

Demerit lives in my building in Gastown....nice lad. I honestly thought he was taller than that. See him and his mrs going over to Six Acres a fair bit.
