I said in the last ratings post that Pity Martinez was the only Atlanta United player on the field who played with any kind of urgency. I guess we now know why. The Pity era is over and changes are afoot.
Stephen Glass was presumably aware of the developments before the news broke early Wednesday, and he was left with some decisions to make with regard to the line-up. On that note, it behooves me to point out two things which Tata Martino and Frank de Boer had in common. First, they both had to deal with fixture congestion but doggedly refused to rotate the players much.
