Patrick Vieira changed the formation for the second match up against the Chicago Fire.  NYCFC kept the Fire from recording a single shot on goal with a great effort from Frederic Brilliant and Jason Hernandez.

Mike and Jon recap that game and discuss the decision by Vieira to bench Shelton and Lopez.

After that they jump in and join Massive Report, the Columbus Crew podcast as we learn more about why the MLS Cup Finalists have yet to record a win in 2016.

Leave a comment

Ep 39:

It was Star Wars night on Wednesday when NYCFC hosted Toronto, it was Black Out night Saturday when San Jose came to town. Who cares? NYCFC took the six points and if there’s anything to be said about superstition, the promotions department better start getting their theme together for October 25 when New England comes back to close out the regular season.

Mike and Jon bring you recaps of both games, we discuss the emergence of Ned Grabavoy and take a look a head to Saturday night.
