3 Kljestans With: Brotherly Game for RBNY vs. Philadelphia Union, Match 28

Q1. Looking back on this Union season, which players have been most responsible for the team's struggles - and what do you expect will happen to those players when the season ends?

Eugene R., Brotherly Game: I think a great many of the players bear the brunt of the blame for the Union's bad season. Roland Alberg was expected to be the 10 the Union would run their offense through, and instead he showed up to camp almost 20 pounds overweight and hasn't been consistent enough in the opportunities he's been given. Chris Pontius' production has declined significantly, although playing on the right instead of the left isn't helping him in that regard.
