Finallyyyyyy Massive news! Orlando City acquired Dom Dwyer from Kansas City!!! Massive move. Used all the allocation money from Molino ($600K) plus about approx $300K more. Welcome back Dom! Legit move. Still feel we need to make another move to add talent.

Great news! We need to add more talent to the back line with Spector!

I assume with the Dwyer move that Larin is heading to Europe.

Orlando doesn't give up that much cash without knowing a lot is coming in soon.

They said that at least thru the end of the season Larin will stay so we'll see. I do expect another move, need creative midfield and defense help.

1-0 Orlando City at the half, Kaka sneaks one inside the side goal post, assists from Bendik, Larin.

Stupid defense allows them to tie it in the 92nd minute. :banghead:

Two mins of added time left.

Our guys blow a huge opportunity. Aja fell asleep and we pay for it. We draw.

Need to make some moves, back line on defense is not good.

Year 3 same crap. Defense suspect as usual. Honestly that was essentially a loss. Atlanta a first year team is going to make the playoffs. We are still floundering.

We used all 3 subs for offensive guys, should have made one for the back line. Liking getting Aja out.

Another pathetic loss. Even with Dyer this team is trash. Team is a mess, currently out of the playoffs and cratering fast. Orlando City has had a golden opportunity with the tremendous fan support, favorable demographics, and Orlando lacking viable alternatives with the Magic making fools of themselves, but all they managed to do is blown it by making bad personnel decisions since the team joined MLS. I don't see this season getting much better even with Dyer, these is just something fundamentally wrong with the way management decided to construct this team. It started with the catastrophic decision to make Bryan Rochez and Higuita designated players and its been mostly a disaster since.

The team needs to make some moves to upgrade the back line. Aja is garbage and cost us a win in the last two games, by committing defensive mistakes. He had one the last game that lead to the other team scoring and a draw for us. He is the one who fouled Piatti leading to a penalty kick and goal, early in the second half last night.

The only player we have good on the back line is Spector. Redding looked good for a bit early in the season, but disappeared.

Our front office needs to make major major upgrades to the back line of defense.

Optimus_Steel · Post #773 » by **Optimus_Steel** » Sun Aug 13, 2017 1:25 am

This team is awful. They can't hang onto possession and they always play for the home run ball. Its just constant give aways. Time to rebuild, the way they built the team has failed.

Another wasted opportunity in a wasted season. Should have been an easy win. Season continues slipping away.

1-1 Draw with Columbus

Optimus_Steel · Post #776 » by **Optimus_Steel** » Sun Aug 27, 2017 2:54 am

Majorrrrrrrr overhaul needed. Hopefully not making the playoffs finally gets management's attention that a spectacular overhaul is needed immediately.

New England wins 4-0. Orlando City defense is beyond terrible. About to be last in the East.

Optimus_Steel · Post #779 » by **Optimus_Steel** » Sun Sep 3, 2017 3:03 am

What a disastrous season. Humiliating. Won like 5 of first 6 and and now won just 3 of next 21, haven't won at all in 2 months. People need to get fired and the team needs a complete and immediate rebuild. Keep Dwyer and get rid everyone of else. What a disaster, they keep getting worse. I guess they did defy expectations lmao. This team is really a joke of a franchise, they weren't ready to run an MLS franchise, lucky there is no relegation. I had a suspicion the Brazilian owner and his buddies were in over their heads with the way they got rid of the first GM for no reason other than to put in one of their guys, hired a guy from Europe that never showed up and quit, unfortunately that turns out to be the case they have no clue how to run a team. They've had a golden opportunity to take over Orlando sports and they squandered it away with utter ineptitude.

They won for first time in months in a horrific game of 2 terrible teams, team almost blew a 2-0 lead by getting 2 red cards. They cant even win right.
