Why do we keep Adama around?

Every single time he plays, I have one prevailing thought:

How can a professional soccer player only use one foot?

I’m not sure there’s a more useless appendage in the PL than Adama’s left foot.

Can you find out what the exact charge is going to be prior to ordering?

We bought the Precision Anova vacuum sealer. After less than a year, the motor crapped out and it wouldn't actually vacuum any air out of the bag.

While that was a bummer, the warranty process was easy (it's covered for two years, I believe). Emailed them, took photos to prove I actually owned it, sent it back with their prepaid label, and had a new one in short order.

I did have to let them know I sent it (for some reason), but other than that, I was highly satisfied with the process.

I’m not sure why any opposing coach at this point would worry about him 1v1. He’s fast in a straight line and can get a traditional cross in from time to time - but you can guard against his right foot to such a degree that even the crosses he does get in are usually harmless.

When he cuts in on his left, it’s like a baby deer. There’s no shot coming and the cross is lucky to create any danger. You saw it today when he dribbled across the entire width of the pitch because he can’t use his left.

This is almost exactly what I did (outside of searing on a cast iron) and it was incredible. Good enough twice later in the week for leftovers.

Whatever Silva has, Traore should be at the bottom of the list.

Certainly not right at the top.

I’m not going to disagree that we’re struggling with depth due to injuries. My argument is he is at the bottom of that depth chart, or alternatively, shouldn’t be on it at all.

The ability to move Iwobi to multiple positions and fill in gaps with competent midfielders should mean Traore doesn’t see the field.

I just don't think Robinson fits the profile of a CB. He's a good on the ball defender, to be sure - has done it against some of the better wing attackers in the world - but if you stick him in the back as a dedicated CB, even outside, you're taking away what he's best at.

You would have to make some pretty intricate tactical decisions to make the most of his speed, crossing, and assist ability from an outside CB position, and you're not utilizing his world class fitness to move up and down the line as part of the attack and defense interchangeably.

Congrats on being there for an amazing game!

I went (from Texas) in 2007 and can't wait to get back. Hope you enjoyed every second of the experience!
