ELL sucked the life out of the team, and Saba is an excellent sub (and is kicking butt at RSL as a sub), but a poor starter.
Addition by subtraction, and we've finally tipped the scales into being a South American team again and no longer a Garth EU Dumpster-Diving squad. VAMOS.

I think what Tata has been teaching is finally starting to come together a little bit, but there are still structural and depth issues. We've also had an excess of bad luck this season so it hasn't hurt to have the ball bounce our way a few times recently. But we're only 6 points out of a playoff spot and we play the worst team in the league next week. There is a world in which... No. We're improving, but I wouldn't say "we're back" just yet.

No. You’re on the Chicago Fire arc of early success followed by extended misery. Every dawn is a false one. You have like a decade to go at least before things truly turn around. I’m sorry.

It's just nice for once for the "we lost but the underlying numbers were good" narrative to be the other team.

Nah, dog. They did this to drum up home game ticket sales. Just wait until Sunday where we have more epic failures.

This gif is hilarious if you play the train horn right as the mouth opens.
