DC United All-Decade Team: Starting Attacking Midfielder
Here we have a generational conflict between two of the greatest players in DC United history. United has never won anything significant without one of these guys on the field, and each has been instrumental in delivering championships and other trophies to the team. It's once again time though...
With Szetela out, what are DCU's options?
Steve Goff had mentioned that Danny Szetela had tweaked his knee, and the update earlier today was that it will require surgery. Like local snow totals, the news just keeps getting worse: United just announced on Behind the Badge that Szetela has a torn meniscus.Once Troy Perkins was acquired, most...
Peace out Christian Gomez
For three and a half years, Christian Gomez was all you could ask for in a #10. From 2005-2007, Gomez averaged 11.66 goals and 9.66 assists per season. His MVP award in 2006 was well-deserved after scoring 14 goals, adding 11 assists, and carrying DC United to their first of two straight...
DC United training camp roster
The 2010 season officially gets underway for DC United tomorrow with the start of training camp at RFK. We've seen plenty of changes to the United roster this offseason, so I figured this would make the perfect time to introduce a new feature: the Rolling Roster. In the table after the jump,...
What's next?
In Chest's post early yesterday, we identified three specific needs for DC United: a forward to pair with Chris Pontius, a center back to pair with Dejan Jakovic, and a central midfielder that is a more proven attacker than Danny Szetela. DC United's acquisition of Danny Allsopp was a nice step...
DC United tie at Kansas City Wizards, 1-1
Maybe it's just me, but I found most of that match to be pretty boring. What I saw were two teams who didn't seem inspired, and a whole lot of players on each side who may have been content with just one point while still at or near the top of the Eastern Conference, and with another game just...
DC United win vs FC Dallas, 2-1
DC United looked like the better team for all 90 minutes tonight, but the first 60 sure were scary. Even though they had threatened to score so many times, and it seemed hard to believe that they would end the night with a bagel, it was hard not to be nervous about witnessing another lost point or...
DC United tie vs NE Revolution, 1-1
I'm having a real hard time figuring out how to feel about this tie. The ending kind of makes it feel like a win. I can tell you with certainty that that was the loudest I've yelled at my tv this year with Benny scoring a goal in extra time. But apparently the recurring theme of the season to date...
What I missed
I've been pretty busy with house additions and family functions the past couple weeks, so without the capability to DVR matches that frustatingly are not on television, my reactions to these past two matches are coming only from video highlights and the written opinions of other fans, bloggers, and...
DC United tie vs Chicago Fire, 1-1
I missed this match in favor of a family function, so the notes below are purely based on highlight clips, news articles, blog posts, and fan comments. What's worse, my DVR inexplicably failed to record the USA WCQ match too.When I opened up the laptop this morning and saw that the result was a 1-1...
