This team can score set piece goals and counters. That's it. Give them possession and they can't do anything. They couldn't break down 11 parking cones placed randomly in the attacking half of the field.
When has that been the strategy? Even when they made MLS Cup, it was off of counters that Carranza, Uhre, and Gazdag ATE. It’s a press and counter system
His point is that they have no capability in possession. Regardless of the counter system. Up a man or for heaven sake two men they should be able to transition to a possession game and be effective.
This team is actual garbage, up two and conceding a goal. Who would've thought that running back a line up thats gotten worse every year because our owner is a cheap fuck wouldn't work out?
I have been with this team through all the shit years. I went to every home game of the longest winless run in MLS history during 2017. I've been there for all the dogshit choke jobs at the last second. I flew to god forsaken LA to watch us throw it away.
This is the lowest I've felt about the team during all of that. This Miami team is a god damn joke and we can't do it. I don't even know what to say anymore.
I don't even know who to be mad at anymore.
These players have played better.
Curtin has coached better.
Ernst has signed better players.
Whose fault even is it at this point?
Generally, yeah. This ownership group just needs to spend more. It's tough in a salary cap league to just spend more to get better, but it's the lack of TRYING to get better that's the problem, with me.
Crying poor in Philadelphia won’t cut it. Sugarman needs to open the wallet, another year or two we’ll be 29th in payroll in a huge market where the Union Brass just won’t stop raising prices for this mediocrity.
Nah, low IQ play. The defender kicked it out of bounds when they were 11 vs 8, that let the subs in and got Miami back to 11 vs 9. Then, Philly had the ball and numbers advantage and the forward kicked it to no one that led to a goal kick. Awful.
Bigger issue is an organization that doesn’t improve the first team roster and thinks running it back two years in a row is enough in 2024. Jim has hit his head against the ceiling numerous times with the rosters ownership has given him. It should’ve changed when LAFC brought Bale off the bench in MLS Cup and Union brought on…Paxten Aaronson
Look at Cincinnati. Two guys from the Union running that team. Big difference is that Cincy spends money.
Cincinnati is what Union could be if the ownership gave a shit. They’re content with being a youth development program
Incredible.
Curtin has done a lot for this club but at what point is he on the hot seat? We just blew a lead at home to a team without their best player who scored the winning goal down a man
So fire a coach without a replacement. And if that coach sucks? Then you fire him and you get turnover every year. It’s working great for Atlanta isn’t it?
I couldn’t watch the entire game but I can’t believe my eyes. UP TWO MEN and we give up a go ahead Miami goal?!!!
I know we’re missing Internationals but WTF…so are Miami for that matter…
I hate this team this year. Fucking embarrassments. McGlynn sucks. I always thought he seemed too highly rated but he is dead to me now. 9 men and we concede a goal ffs
Anybody looking at 90s lump ball to 5 in box whilst sitting on a team of internationals and Olympic level youngsters and not IMMEDIATELY seeing crap tactics as the clear and obvious of suck cause needs to go watch hand egg. It ain't the owner, it's not the signings, the coaching staff is crap. Sorry Jim, go back to the 90s if you want to keep winning. Gig is up, the game moved on without you.
Wow, one of the worst games in years
Union continue to fail to adjust tactics to pass inside when the top of the 18 is free
This team is a complete embarrassment. Players aren’t good enough and tactics are from the 90s. Any other major sport and the coach is gone tomorrow.
Big upvote to 90s tactics. Honestly the biggest issue
This is the worst loss in years.
I think I am not renewing. That was the moment right there.
Only way they’ll listen is when the money stops flowing.

My point is they’re not built to win that way, so of course there is no capability. You’re expecting something that they aren’t
Dude, up two men, a U10 team can find two open men to pass to in possession. Just stop.
This team is actual garbage, up two and conceding a goal. Who would've thought that running back a line up thats gotten worse every year because our owner is a cheap fuck wouldn't work out?
11 v 8 and you immediately hit it out of play . What the fuck are we doing
Fuck it. Sell and/or fire everyone
Including Phang

What a joke.
Not even sure what to say. Unbelievable.
Im gonna throw up.
What a nightmare
This team fucking deserves what happened tonight. The fans didn’t.
Fucking one of the most pathetic performances I a have ever seen in my 30 years watching soccer. This team is dead.
What a fucking joke…
I don't even know who to be mad at anymore. These players have played better. Curtin has coached better. Ernst has signed better players. Whose fault even is it at this point?
Same as always. Sugarman. MLS improves every year and the Union have had the same roster for 3 years with no upgrades anywhere in that entire time.
Generally, yeah. This ownership group just needs to spend more. It's tough in a salary cap league to just spend more to get better, but it's the lack of TRYING to get better that's the problem, with me.

This team needs to be gutted and rebuilt. However, it won’t happen with this ownership. Cheap as hell.
lol. Classic union
This was embarrassing
Sell the team
Sorry if this breaks the rules, but this whole team, all of them, can go fuck themselves. Jim Curtain, the players, megaphone guy, all of them.
DOOP. That was good
He clearly saved that
Yeah wtf, this ref is ass for that. Clear save by Calendar and then he argues like everyone one else but clearly isn’t liked
Done for Wow
This team needs a complete overhaul
I fucking hate this team anymore.
I turned it off, but if I read one fuxking word about international break I'm gonna lose it.
It’s fucking coffin time sons of Ben stop being bitches
This is peak mls
We don’t deserve three points
Cancelling my subscription
A Sakiewicz level debacle
This Philly team might be the worst coached team I ever watched, wow. Can’t believe they blew this game, lol
Just a poor roster, Franz Beckenbauer couldn’t squeeze a run of play goal out of these guys…
Nah, low IQ play. The defender kicked it out of bounds when they were 11 vs 8, that let the subs in and got Miami back to 11 vs 9. Then, Philly had the ball and numbers advantage and the forward kicked it to no one that led to a goal kick. Awful.
Glesnes is fucking cooked
I’ll argue he got hurt earlier this game
Sullivan really has to at least hit the target there
I could see Harriel eventually moving to CB full time down the line
There goes Bedoya. Hopefully nothing major cause our depth is depleted as it is.
What in the actual fuck was that
Curtin needs to go after this…/
Curtin is performing as expected with a team full of chumps
I am so tired of the Curtin apologists. Over and over again making excuses. Is Curtin the whole problem… no but he is a big part of the problem.
Bigger issue is an organization that doesn’t improve the first team roster and thinks running it back two years in a row is enough in 2024. Jim has hit his head against the ceiling numerous times with the rosters ownership has given him.

Jim has no tactics. He doesn't belong in the head coach job. He needs to be in youth development.
Look at Cincinnati. Two guys from the Union running that team. Big difference is that Cincy spends money. Cincinnati is what Union could be if the ownership gave a shit. They’re content with being a youth development program

2
Yeah good point
He should be fired for this result. Absolutely unacceptable.
What available coach does better with this team setup and owner?
That’s such a terrible argument. It’s not relevant. The simple fact is he is not performing.
So fire a coach without a replacement. And if that coach sucks? Then you fire him and you get turnover every year. It’s working great for Atlanta isn’t it?
Yep.
Waiting for the ref to kiss Alba after that “look” and Pat on the shoulder
Mid Sullivan should have scored
Have to take advantage of sending off.
20 left. Gotta win this or it’s disgusting
You would think it was still 11v11 watching this game.
Scrape him up
GET THE TRASH CAN
Miami taking that yellow card road back home
I couldn’t watch the entire game but I can’t believe my eyes. UP TWO MEN and we give up a go ahead Miami goal?!!! I know we’re missing Internationals but WTF…so are Miami for that matter…
I'll be surprised if jim isn't gone by the end of the year if this keeps up. Something needs to change. Locker room morale must be awful
I hate this team this year. Fucking embarrassments. McGlynn sucks. I always thought he seemed too highly rated but he is dead to me now. 9 men and we concede a goal ffs
11 v 8 and we send the ball out twice wasting all this time
Get Glesnes the fuck out here
Are we mentally restarted
Confirmed
Quinn Sullivan couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn
Except when he hits hit directly at a defender or the keeper
I’ve been hard on Sullivan all season, but he played hard for more of tonight’s game than any other all year.
playing poorly hard doesn’t get you much. he is the most overrated player we’ve ever had.
Don’t know about that. Tonight was the best game he’s played all season. He actually looked like he cared.
What a ball by Glesnes!
McGlynn played a sick ball just then
I understand that MLS kind of needs to play they copa America but it’s pretty funny /sad at the same time
God fucking dammit
This officially became a must win now
Did we really just sub on Chris Donovan over Tai Baribo. Can Baribo really be that bad???
Isn’t he on international duty?
Nah he’s on the bench.
I guess all I can say is Donovan is aggressive
I have no idea what he reallly does honestly
Runs fast from all I can see tbh
He is listed as a sub on espn and I swear I saw him warming up
he is that bad
Looks like Bairbo is getting ready to come on
How’s that not gone in sheesh
11 v 9 …. Don’t see this a lot
Thanks Apple…
What a terrible product.
Fire this bum curtin. Fucking horrible leadership. Raised a bunch of fucking pussies
Did semmle let that ball go between his legs??
The dude isn’t that good it seems. Blake stops that. Losing Freese hurts even more.
Blake being back will be MASSIVE. can’t come soon enough…
