After two consecutive days of headlines about the Impact (not easy) we sadly ended accepting the departure of a very nice guy, Marc Dos Santos, who I met personally last week. It was an honest move after a very long streak of bad results. Apparently leading an heterogeneous group like the Impact was harder than he thought. Now is Nick's job to get the group together, yes the same players he chose four months a go.
Nick Des Santis, temporary coach, only had one day to get familiar with the team and the system before facing the current 2nd division champions, Puerto Rico Islanders.We cannot blame him, you really cannot do much in one day and what we saw Wednesday night was a team with the same old problems, so I would wait at least 2 more games before start judging.
We did have good news, in the attendance, which reached more than 10,000 seats (more than 80%). Not bad at all for a Wednesday night in a regular season match even considering kids are on vacations since last week.
On the pitch, it was Hassoun Camara who came to my attention all game long. It is a waste to use him as central back, he needs more freedom in the midfield and I would love to see him playing at least once with David Testo as double pivots. So the good news would be to see Pizzolitto back and moving Camara to midfield, but What to do with Amir Lowery? Good question. Well that is Nick's job and not mine, for the moment.
Next game will be at Cary, North Carolina when facing the Railhawks Sunday at 7pm.
