Not melting, bro.

Winning with aggressive Latino football on the front foot.

All credit to FdB for finally recognizing that in July/August.

We have to get the most contact in the box with no calls.

P.S. I’m sure it’s painful to your 0-0/1-0 inclinations.

This is how Atlanta soccer should look. I will say I think Fdb was put into a tough spot taking over after a title all the new competitions with a limited roster due to mls retarded rules, then injuries hit.

He finally had some players return and we start playing our best ball again.

I wish he would have let them play this way earlier but all the cups are for our taking.

I don’t fear lafc in the least

I agree.

Let our Latino backbone carry the weight.

You make a great point though... FdB has brought in some very important starting and rotational players (who are NOT Latino) who are making important and steady contributions.

The thing is... FdB has taken the reins off of his Latino players. And it’s beautiful.

I think last night was the first multi-goal home loss for Portland since July 19, 2017.

I don't mind how De Boer has handled his time here so far at all.

Despite being hit hard with injuries/international duty, CONCACAF/US OPEN schedule congestion, etc, he came in and established that his version of Atl United was going to first be strong defensively and has he has gotten pieces back/added pieces and players have gotten comfortable with him he has released the reins on offense. But I think that defensive mindset instilled at the beginning is still paying dividends now and will continue to play dividends in the playoffs. This team wants and can get shutouts, 1 score games, if they find themselves in the type of game that calls for it.

I get it but it was frustrating watching a great offense not even create chances. FDB personality probably didn’t help things, but to his and the front offices credit they have hit home runs and he finally let our horses run.

I don’t think any defense can really stop our attack unless the refs call nothing and they Park the bus on us

Hope someone has warned FdB about Orlando’s late-season modus operandi when they are inevitably eliminated from all competitions...

Attempts to injure.

Can we sub on Pereira just so we can hear them try to pronounce both Pereira and Pereyra?
