Salute to Farfan sprinting in to run interference and staying cool even up in Judson’s face to not escalate. That’s my guy

Take it easy playing in the stadium after the game and the confrontations is classic

Gg San Jose, 7 years going on 8 now since we beat you away. Good luck the rest of the season

u/Some_Man_Person avatar

Damn someone must’ve said something abhorrent

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

I really hope not but it’s possible. I’m sure the bench jawed at him some after his spat with Velasco that preempted all that anyway

He’s such a nice guy too. Just has that special bulge to his eyes haha

God I hate when refs don’t blow the whistle until enough players complain.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Not sure I agree with that handball

I would take a bullet for KOS

welp

u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

One of the stadium corners that Tafari shushed is where the away fans sit lol

Certainly there’s still 3 mins left after the added time bc of the time wasting and goal right?

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

I fucking love Nkosi

u/clutchy42 avatar

Let's fucking go, nkosi!!

u/sterling_m avatar

JT just secured his job for the rest of the season.

u/Bigfamei avatar

Lets go Dallas!

NIKOSI!!

Well if I complain enough about his passing he will apparently hit that.

u/Tubocass avatar

Beautiful center back header.

u/NextDoorNeighbrrs avatar

LETS GO

u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

Bruuuuhhhh

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

KOSSSSSSSS

WOW OK THEN

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

This is shameless lmao

How can Velasco meg three people a game and be such a terrible passer?

u/bill_midd avatar

I don’t think I’m going to like watching this 4-5-1 try and hang on.

u/orangesonfire avatar

I see 8-1-1

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Y’all could go 1-1-8 and I’m sure we still wouldn’t score

You really think we’re gonna score? Come on now

u/sterling_m avatar

I hope the 10 they sign after Miro is done ends up being Lights Out.

It’s becoming clearer that he’s not gonna be The Man.

u/COYQuakes avatar

I mean we’re not playing him as a 10

More replies

God I can’t keep watching that replay. Guess the good news is that a thousand teams a year make playoffs in MLS now.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

If I’m San Jose I tell the team to just keep fucking gunning it down the left wing until Twumasi gets subbed out

u/COYQuakes avatar

Taking Yueill out is a mistake

Second time in three weeks we are chasing a game because of a crazy defensive mistake.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

GET TWUMASI OUT OF THERE ALREADY

GO 3 IN THE BACK AND MOVE FARFAN TO CB, BRING IN IBEAGHA I DON’T CARE

u/mateo416 avatar
Edited

Ema Twumasi may not be able to win headers, defend, pass, dribble, or cross,

Take Ema off wtf the guy is clearly hurt

What is the thought process there? Well… maybe this won’t go in?

u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

Kind of looked like he didn't realize where he was on the pitch and was tracking a ball he thought was headed out of bounds? May be a generous read on the situation though

More replies
u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

Twumasi totally blocked Maurer on that one, ouch. I'll take it though!

Bro that was the most preventable goal ever. Wtf is Ema doing?

u/Elguapo361 avatar

Fucking Twamasi WATCHING it go in.

well that was strange

Braindead team

u/Tubocass avatar

Twumasi, man, gotta do your job there

u/bill_midd avatar

That was a gift

u/sterling_m avatar

Yeah, sure was.

Nice one Twumasi..

What the fuck is Twumasi doing?

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Fucking GET TWUMASI OUT OF THE GAME

We would but everyone else is hurt lol

I NEVER DOUBTED YOU TANNER BEASON.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Second match in a row like that you gotta be fucking kidding me

u/bill_midd avatar

Nothing like a slo mo dive.

I think that’s a penalty.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

The one time Velasco has soundly beaten Gruezo tonight and no one’s ready for the entry pass smh

We’re never getting a PK ever again

Better review that one.

u/pmtuschiches avatar

Puro tiki taka from sj

u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

Trauco you are allowed to trap the ball!!!!! Not everything needs to be a first-time banger!! Most things cannot be a first-time banger! This is driving me crazy

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Extra point is up…and it’s good!

u/sterling_m avatar

Forgive me, I was so shell-shocked by the Heat-Celtics ending that I’m only now coming back to the match and… Quakes still have poor depth.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

If Twumasi comes out I guess we go 3 at the back? And move Farfan up and Velasco in…?

Is Justin Che back yet? Apparently we need to be five deep at every position right now.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Yes but he’s with the US U20’s right now

More replies
u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

Our depth is, to use a technical term, garbo

If I’m Estevez I start coaching Velasco that every time he beats a player he immediately picks his head up and plays the simplest ball into someone feet. He routinely makes other players look silly in the first five yards and you can tell that he just wants his next touch to be a world class assist to go with beating the player. But more times than not, his hard work ends up in naught because he forces the pass. If he starts turning those moments into a numbers advantage moving forward in the final third, he will be crazy good for us. He may even score more goals if he continues his run after playing the easy pass.

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar
Edited

It’s almost always overdoing the pass or trying to oversell contact and draw a foul. I’d like both to get worked out of him, but I’ll be fine with either. He’s a very skilled player and has a great eye for goal, but his development has been too slow for what this team has needed from his spot on the field

u/cindybuttsmacker avatar

I'm always amused at the crowd dance shots we get at halftime during Quakes home games

u/NextDoorNeighbrrs avatar

I’ll take that half. I think we’ve clearly been the better side

I worry about halftime adjustments. We literally don’t have the healthy personnel to make any lol.

u/NextDoorNeighbrrs avatar

We don’t usually make halftime subs but Nico is pretty good at tactical tweaks at halftime

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

…I guess I’ll take going into halftime without another injury and be happy?

Fuck it, give me Nolan Norris if Farfan can’t continue

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

NOOOOO NOT FARFAN

Why do we look so good with such a weird roster and player positions right now?

u/sir_whirly avatar

Mainly because it is hard to plan for chaos.

More replies

Let’s just say ferreira’s shot was going wide

One touch passes are on point today, loving the interplay

Did Velasco just save the shot while also being offside?

u/JesyouJesmeJesus avatar

Off-topic but LMAOOOO THE MIAMI HEAT LOST

u/Elguapo361 avatar

More relevant - so did the Vegas Golden Knights.

STARS IN 7
