Union sporting director Earnie Stewart gave manager Jim Curtin another vote of confidence on Tuesday, and while he acknowledged that Saturday’s 2-0 loss at FC Dallas looked pretty bad, Stewart’s endorsement seemed to be sincere.
“My job is to look at it in a broader perspective, and take out single games,” he said. “What we’re asking of players, the data that we get back and the numbers that we have, are for a lot of parts, pretty darn good.”
Of course, there’s one number that looks very bad: the number of goals. The Union have been shut out four times through six games this season.
