Dallas SB Nation has a chalkboard analysis of our upcoming game Sunday.
Googlie: Big D Soccer SB Nation.
I love how they refer to Nagbe as "the Dallas Killer" and Chara as "The Blackhole"
Dallas clearly thinks that this game will be won using their speed up the flanks. They mentioned how Mannah ate up Powell in an early meeting (my edit: that won't happen on Sunday!). I'm personally more worried about Dallas using their speed against El Sueno on our left side.
While it will be a heck of a task shutting down Dallas as they have a lot of players that have a nose for the goal, I think we can come up with the win. But what we really really really need is to shut them down. I'd take a 0-0 tie over a 2-1 win.
Will we come out and score on these guys? Can we shut them out? These and other questions will be answered (below!) on Sunday afternoon!
Go Timbers!
