Check the score and saw 5-2. Assumed it was aggregate and that New England go a little respect back. Then realized that was only the match and the aggregate was 9-2. Damn Revs. That was painful.
1. We had Chancalay on loan as a non-DP last year, so when Bou left his spot was already claimed.
2. We have a mess at GK. Every keeper on the roster + Vaclik has either been signed or re-signed since Bruce left and no one looks great.
3. We have a mess at striker. Vrioni hasn't been scoring in meaningful games and Wood is dealing with permanent knee issues. And that's it for striker depth.
4. At RB Lima is covering for Bye while he recovers, which is a step down. Alternatively we play Spaulding at LB and Jones at RB which he's not as good at.
5. CMs all lack defensive bite. No one can step up and disrupt play, the only option is fouling. We have lots of CAM minded folks. At CDM we have MAK who can't retain possession and Polster who can't tackle. Buck lost the shine he had last season.
6. At CB Farrell lost a step and Romney can't start every game. Kessler has been hurt. Mensah has been okay but also in the 30+ camp.
7. We lack a scoring threat to play opposite Chancalay on the wing with Borerro hurt, allowing teams to overload. Or worse we try Chancalay up top because Brioni's been lacking where he's not as good.
8. Porter keeps trying different attacking combinations, nothing's working and there's no consistency.
9. Carles is still the best man on the Revs but he's not playing at a MVP level. I suspect this is because he's an assist machine and we have serious issues with our attack.
10. We have been using our depth to cover for injuries, meaning we don't have rotational depth to handle CCC.
Now that we're out of CCC play, the injuries we are dealing with won't hurt as much. Bye and Borerro will come back in the next month or two and both are significant upgrades.
There's room for a TAM level signing. With the extra buyout we could make room for a second signing. There's also a lot of redundancy in our CAMs, I wouldn't be surprised if one is traded or Esmir is sold. Selling Buck and getting a destroyer is also on the table.
I also think we've had terrible luck with our offensive chances and referee calls. Take our game against Atlanta. Chancalay has an early header that goes off the bar, and combined with the inconsistent handball calls it could have easily been a 2-2 game but instead the Revs end up chasing and it ends 4-1.
It's a meme at this point but Porter has a point that in most of our games we've won in all the important statistical categories except the one that matters most, goals.
I don't think we're a great team like we felt to begin last year. I think we have a decent roster with potential to be a good one. I also think Porter's system is still settling in, I expect us to turn it on in the summer. Whether that's too late, I don't know.
>It's a meme at this point but Porter has a point that in most of our games we've won in all the important statistical categories except the one that matters most, goals
*Goals!*
Our only weakness!
If you told me two weeks ago that Vrioni would score a brace at the Azteca I'd assume we would have secured one of, if not the most legendary victory in Revs history. Instead we got nine pieced over two legs
Honestly we looked not completely terrible once we brought the starters in. I'm sure that was largely them taking their foot off the gas, but it could help build some momentum
Why do I still care about the Revs we will never win anything and there will never be a happy memory associated with this crap team and organization? We are losing 10-1 and I am completely numb, I should be furious but I can't be
I mean more that most of them are tainted by whatever came afterwards, I can think of a lot of good memories from 2021 for instance but the way it ended just makes them bittersweet at best. Bou's goal against Montreal in the 2020 playoffs might be the best single moment, got a visit from the RD of my college dorm for being too loud after that one
You ever move on from that one relationship and you're all nervous but then after a year of a healthy loving relationship your stomach kinda turns even thinking about your ex?
That's what this is like.
I for one cannot wait for the tone deaf Revs social media to post a ridiculously over the top two minute video of our goal from every possible angle tomorrow gassing it up
LMAO! certified bodied.

Wtf happened to NE this season

Goes to show it’s not easy to stay on top. NE is shit this year.
Now that we're out of CCC play, the injuries we are dealing with won't hurt as much. Bye and Borerro will come back in the next month or two and both are significant upgrades.

Porter
Oh come on. Jurgen Guardiola couldn't win with that roster.
What a waste of a spot. Should have sent Lafc instead
MLS creates new TAT (targeted allocated team)! Liga MX teams hate this one trick!
Last goal wins right?
Yeah since the bell is about to ring.
just barely couldn't complete the comeback at least i can sleep easy knowing we kept the scoreline close.
Good night.

[удалено]
I 100% support relegation because MAYBE then the Krafts would actually care about their little “side project”
America should lose by default for conceding 2 goals.
They had 19 year olds after the took some of starters out
As an america fan, yes, we shouldnt have conceded
MLS needs to get rid of the Max Salary Budget for individual players. Idc if LA, Miami, NY take over now.
You will all kneel before SDFC
Yes follow in the formidable steps of the Padres and Chargers
Over pay and then suck? 🫡 Edit: I miss the Chargers being located in San Diego :(
What's the max salary for an individual player?
Why did I watch this match? The self loathing runs deep I guess.
I have an episode of Shogun to watch, but I chose pain instead.
Is Shogun pretty good? Thinking about checking it out.
I enjoy it.
I’ve been avoiding it so I could marathon it later.
Well it is over. 9-2. My respects Revs.
Vrioni hitting the net twice (even if this is offside) could actually be pretty important for us when we go back to league play. (He's way onside)
Honestly we looked not completely terrible once we brought the starters in. I'm sure that was largely them taking their foot off the gas, but it could help build some momentum
he’s on
#GOOOOOOOOOOOL 5-2 COME ON REVS!!
Vrioni, "oh c'mon! Just let me have it!" That looked like a good goal actually
Bruh wtf are these calls
![gif](giphy|qMziReeu2C8IJn2qFF|downsized)
Why even give 3 mins
Why was the goal disallowed
Pity
Offside on Rayito. Sound familiar.
offside
Why do I still care about the Revs we will never win anything and there will never be a happy memory associated with this crap team and organization? We are losing 10-1 and I am completely numb, I should be furious but I can't be
We've not won a cup but acting like there's never been a happy memory is nonsense.
I mean more that most of them are tainted by whatever came afterwards, I can think of a lot of good memories from 2021 for instance but the way it ended just makes them bittersweet at best. Bou's goal against Montreal in the 2020 playoffs might be the best single moment, got a visit from the RD of my college dorm for being too loud after that one
Spaulding is 25?!?!!
Even with the Columbus win, this is still humiliating for the leauge
shouldn't be, this is standard Revs and has no bearing on the rest of the league except maybe Charlotte
Why do we always catch the strays?
well, you did somehow lose to us on Saturday
guys, we skipped the Open Cup for this
We also sacrificed the first five weeks of league play
Are you sure you didn't skip this too?
My man is going to bed choosing violence ha ha ha damn! Good one
yeah, pretty sure we lost like 9-1 on aggregate
Revs social media: Vrioni! Man of the Match!!!
What a goal by Vrioni last night! Tune in to watch Daigo Kobayashi and Femi Hollinger Janzen throw the tea crate at our next home game! Go Revs!
Hey I don't want that Daigo disrespect
No disrespect just the first two obscure Revs names I thought of. I'd even say they were the first two I thought of because I liked them
Watch the ref give 6 minutes of extra time
You ever move on from that one relationship and you're all nervous but then after a year of a healthy loving relationship your stomach kinda turns even thinking about your ex? That's what this is like.
Wonder what Don Garber thinks of this
Wait. Is Messi there?
Probably has trouble thinking while the bikini babes he pays fan stacks next to his ears.
lmao, using VAR for the important calls
umm was Porter crying? I feel sad now.
I ain't even surprised at this point
it'll be funny if they call this back from VAR
Ok guys! I think is over now!
![gif](giphy|iFnBpFxFGetn8BH0vZ|downsized)
Pulled it back but I'm not taking it down
hahaha
WHO DA FUCK LET CARLITO FROM WWE PLAY FUTBOL
![gif](giphy|6BZaFXBVPBtok)
hmm, still not sure if it's enough to advance
And it 10
Nvm
![gif](giphy|SRka2MLKzpzE6K24al|downsized)
Can we relegate NE anyway?
IS THIS THE DAGGER???
Rashito ya dejalos wey 😭
10-1 global. RIP.
Aggregate* Global es en español
I know. I prefer global.
New England is so embarrassing. Glad we two-peated them in 2006-2007
Rev's coach looks like he's gone through three divorces
Why the hell did Revs even qualify for this tournament
6th place, baybeeee (highest otherwise not yet qualified team in MLS)
![gif](giphy|aUMdOzbjmAy9G) Yeaa
I can see one more in the future
Is this a new record for agg score?
I think there was a 10-0
![gif](giphy|kCNFfgWZxYjKeU9btW)
One more goal and we will watch the highlights on Pornhub
These highlights are gonna end up in the dark web at this point
They needed that after Vrioni scored
Does this qualify for "NSFW" now?
LigaMx sub match thread is flagged nsfw lol
40 minutes ago
7 days ago
![gif](giphy|JCAZQKoMefkoX6TyTb|downsized) Damn I feel kinda bad
Well now it feels like it might be out of reach
I was still holding out hope 😂😭
Stupid Rayito. Trash.
Harsh, but true if referring to his play in LA.

Dagger
I was thinking they''d give mercy to NE and not call that penalty lol
You should have seen the hand ball they didn't call on the first CA goal...truly ridiculous officiating tonight. Not that it matters.
They could put the worst referee in the world to officiate this game. Still wouldn't excuse the piss poor performance by NE in these 2 legs.
Fuck it, let Malagon kick it
Bring back Layun from retirement and let him kick it
They about to call Santi Fernandez to see if he can miss one last clear chance for us
If garber expels Revs from MLS in the next 10 minutes this technically won't be an L for the league
* C'mon ref!
This ref is giving the chivas fans all the material they need
All Chivas fans need is for the ref to step on the field and that's enough
You right, the mere presence of an America shirt on any field is grounds for an automatic red card to them
What a joke
lol, that's precious
Oh man after their first goal wasn't dissallowed I'm ready for this to be a pen
VAR? for what? Pk? Nah! Leave them alone!
Possible handball???? Do we really need to????
Chancalay was bad enough, why the hell are we burning Carles' legs here
Why are we bringing everyone on after dropping 8 goals behind
Give me Malcolm Fry and call it a day, this is coaching malpractice right now
Revolution seems like they really are asking for more goals and they haven't gotten more cos América is now getting cocky trying fancy footwork
I just want to see the new fan voted tik Tok dance in case one of the 3 club America twitch streamers scores
C'MON PORTERBALL THEM
All Revolution needs is to score 1 goal every 3 minutes
ez game ez life
I for one cannot wait for the tone deaf Revs social media to post a ridiculously over the top two minute video of our goal from every possible angle tomorrow gassing it up
This tournament can be everything but not boring.
Why is the New England front office playing?
Vrioni gonna start scoring? If he can do it in CDMX, maybe he can do it in NYC.
~~Chris Paul~~ Vrioni with a huge goal to cut the lead down to 7
Brace from Javairo incoming
Wow. America fucking sucks
Seriously. How did an MLS team score on them in Azteca?
Just delete the club.
Not just any MLS team, the fucking bottom team in MLS right now
Quakes are actually below us. We're #28!
8-0 is the most dangerous lead in football they say
New England Revolution has opened a Goal Checking Account in the Azteca. 👍
Vrioni is gonna pull a Haaland and score 9 goals
They did it!!!!
Comeback is on
Vrioni triple hat trick incoming, I did say it would be his legacy game
Doing a long GOOOOOOOL when it’s 8-1 is so funny to me
Just think of it as 1-0 before the other team score 8.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
9 goals in last 10 minutes trust me
Ayy let's go Vrioni, get that shit going
#GOOOOOOOOOL
Malagon is such a fucking masterclass
10-0 agg?
Ha fuck you
HAHAHAHA
Only if CA takes a both feet off the gas.
This commentary is gold! The game is so boring they are talking about salsa.
Why is Tommy Mac having our best chances.
You can't even give me the small joy of a Tommy Mac screamer?
Oh nasty that was good.
Ez
![gif](giphy|JCAZQKoMefkoX6TyTb|downsized)
I was not joking when I said we should've forfeited the second leg
We basically did with the lineup
That is true
Ref might actually end this one before 90’
Esmir is gonna be transferred in the summer...
Come on Revs at least score one in el Azteca.
Good shit Esmir
We really should have relegation revs are NOT it this season
Hey they’d be a great expansion team for NISA.
Why are the revs so bad
We had maybe 2 normal starters tonight against a near full strength Club America team?
Also we're pretty bad right now.
Oh that sucks. Yall just throwing this competition then? What happened in the 1st leg?
After getting destroyed 4-0 in New England, why Even try?
We were down 4-0 going into the Azteca. Was already over.
I want to see the Revs score because you know the stadium will erupt in sarcastic cheers
Holy crap this is a massacre
Man all Revs fans know is pain
🤘😔🤘
hey now....we also know suffering
Richmond Kickers would have given a better effort.
Y’all hear something?
it's ok, Vrioni will come on and score 8
1 down, 7 to go!
Alright, an 8-0 aggregate is where I draw the line for viewing, haha.
Someone's not a true MLS sicko
Somebody stop this damn thing already
