Playoff Lineups
I came here to ask about Ze, and that's the very first thing I saw on your headlines, merd!!! With Ribeiro, do you think Nick brings Biello back to midfield to add depth there, or leaves him at forward and brings in Fukasawa?

No, Ribeiro is not out for sure, and - according to the Gazette - it would only be for tomorrow's match
I'd keep Biello up front as he proved a lot more there, with Sebrango
So : Sutton - Braz, Gervais, Pizzolitto, Vincello - Fukasawa, Leduc, Ribeiro (or ???), Lyssand - Biello, Sebrango
Who else can be playmaker ? Hard question...
I'm not sure of the complementarity Gbeke - Sebrango

I dunno...If Ribiero can't play the first game, I think I'd feel better with Biello back and and a forward combo of Gbeke/Sebrango than a starting midfield of Fukasawa/DiPlacido with only Mert off the bench. Seattle will be attacking a lot at home, big guys like Gbeke/Sebrango could keep them honest while Biello solidifies the midfield.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback!
One more question:
Leighton O'Brien got a yellow card in the 1st game against Portland, and another yellow card in the 2nd game against Portland. Does that mean must sit tomorrow night?

I hear ya BoB, just don't agree. Galindo adds much more offense to Seattle.
So, IMO, I'd rather have 8 guys back (including Biello) and 2 big, true strikers pouncing on Seattle mistakes, than 8 guys back (including DiPlacido) and only 1 guy up front, plus Biello going back and forth.
But I say this assuming that Gbeke is healthy and Ribeiro is injured. Anyone have the latest news on those two?

Yesterday, Ribeiro said to RDS "I feel I'll be able to play"
We can also play with two defensive midfielders, one being sometimes more offensive, and Biello half midfielder / half forward and Sebrango as lone striker
But I'm not sure it's a style that De Santis likes...

I'm not from Montreal so can only understand some basics in the French forums, but in terms of the coaching this series, guys, where is the anger???
I'm pretty sure DeSantis is spelled the same way in both languages and no where did I see his name pop up in ANY of the French threads! Sutton should get blame too but c'mon, with all due respect to Seattle, who only had 4 bad minutes in the entire series, only 1 person blew this!
1) If starting DDP in game 1 was not bad enough, DeSantis starts him again in game 2 as well?!?!
2) This time he adds Mert to the starting rotation?!?!
3) With the game and series tied, with an overtime/mini-game looming, he stays with 3 defenders?!?!
Here are the facts:
Biello at forward in 2003 = 1st round exit, 0 goals for Mauro.
Biello at midfield in 2004 = CHAMPIONSHIP.
Biello at forward in 2005 = 1st round exit, 0 goals for Mauro.
More facts for this series:
DDP (starter) -2
Fukasawa (bench) +1
Gbeke (bench) + 2
Here are some opinions from Grant Needham:
"Never let the weaker team hang around"
Isn't starting DDP against former league MVP, and former MLS player, Leighton O'Brien in game 1, and then adding Mert for Game 2 BEGGING Seattle to please hang around???
"You're only as good as the services you get"
What services did DDP give in game 1 to ask him to start (this time with Mert!) in game 2?
Instead of playing offense and winning this series early, DeSantis chose to be conservative and go down early. Then AFTER Gbeke, who should have been starting all along, dug deep to tie things (twice!) he stayed offensive when he should have conservatively set up for the upcoming mini-game.
With the whole season on the line, and Seattle attacking, how could JJ Bailey be on the field?
Move Lyssand down to defend, bring in Cann, but DON'T play with 3 defenders, especially when you know a tired Seattle wants to avoid the mini-game AND that Sutton has not looked good!
I know Montreal was missing Ze. I know Grande is gone. I know Seattle is a very tough team, but Nick DeSantis was the only difference here. He coached the type of series that would make Bob Lilley smile. Not even. Lilley would never ask only 3 defenders to take him to overtime.

Just one thing, yes I don't think we startedthe game with our best line up. I don't know if I would have started Gbeke But I know I would not have started DDP and Mert. But during the game I don't think deSantis had anything to do with the lineups, he was suspended and that is not really good for such an important match, you have to control your emotions.

True, he was suspended, but c'mon, you know he made the line up. According to CJAD he was at the booth and often on the phone, so he must take the hit for the moves made throughout. I don't think Nick should get fired, but he MUST take the blame here! Anything short of another championship 2006 will be a disaster.

I don't think we can put expectations for 2006 yet, we don't know what will happen with the roster until then. Will Biello, Kolic, Sutton, Braz, Fukasawa, DiPlacido and Gbeke be back???
The first two are'nt getting any younger, Sutton and Braz have been rumored to look for european transfer this winter and Fukasawa only has a one year contract, will he go back to Japan??? Both DDP and Gbeke were late additions from the Lynx, will they go back there or stay here???
