Before diving into the game yesterday, I want to talk for a moment about how we, fans, criticize the team. I’m not against criticism. As a website, Dirty South Soccer tries to uncover truths and help fans better understand this team and the sport in general. Whether that’s through reporting stories or breaking down film to discover the root causes of breakdowns on the pitch.
Much of what you will hear in this column is going to be defensive of the critiques flying around the internet at the moment, mainly because I feel that many are misleading. I annoyingly can’t stop thinking about them.
