This is what we need Wednesday from Driussi. Matching lion back tattoos demands it.

Again….maddening. The fact that the team is #3 in GA makes it even worse. If they could scratch out a goal every now and then, they’d actually have a decent record. It doesn’t take a lot, just….SOME.
I’ve never seen a team, at any level, with the collective inability to finish that this team has. It has to be fixed. I’m fine if they get outscored….but they have to score SOMETIMES.Completely agree. This Houston midweek match is the first one where I’m looking for a reason to get excited. At least it’s another Texas team.

McKenze Gaines, attacking player and local boy, signed today. He's been playing in Germany for the last few years. That basically fills out our roster. He's not going to set the world on fire, but should be another decent option. And, he should be available this weekend since there aren't any visas to deal with. As a bonus, he's been on trial for a few weeks so he should know the system a bit.

@skittlebrau when do we think Driussi should starts?
Maybe Houston. If not, then Frisco. Would be badass to see him score his first goal in front of 1000 traveling Austin FC fans at Toyota Park.

I am so fired up right now ... I'm going to Saturday's match at Q2. It'll be my first experience in the stadium and I can't wait!
Minor humblebrag, but we'll be in the Q2 Field Club for food/adult beverages beforehand and row 4 for our seats. Anyone have experience with this club and any tips?
My company has seats there, but I haven’t been in them yet. The one thing they’ve talked about is you can order food/booze delivered to your seats but it’s the standard fare (popcorn, nachos, etc). You get a lot better options in the club itself.
You can also watch the postgame press conferences from the club with a beer in hand because the media room is right there. That would be a cool thing to watch if we win.

This is a pretty decent lineup.

Hearing about Sebastian Driussi being a possibility, anybody know if the rumor has legs?
This account with 540K followers says it's a done deal.

I saw Don Walser open for Johnny Cash at the Erwin Center many years ago. That was a badass show.

I did certainly appreciate the Save Austin Now ghouls using those Nextdoor threads to push their petition.

I realize I’m being melodramatic. Just disappointed there doesn’t appear to be much urgency in the front office. Hope they’re just good at keeping secrets.
That's the big question - How much do we trust Claudio's words? If we sign two more guys during this window, it will be completely consistent with what he's said all along about the roster build. If we don't sign anyone, then we have a low rent squad.
There are a lot of factors that come with bringing a player into camp - player, agent, family, buying team, selling team, etc. Sean Rubio's said that he's more surprised that any deals happen than any time one falls through. THAT SAID, there should be several deals in the works right now, with a couple to come through soon.As far as keeping secrets, Cecilio and Pochettino were telegraphed. Djitte and Kolmanic came out of nowhere. So we've done a little of both.

Josh was noncommittal as shit about everyone else on the presser today, too. I’m more worried about Pereira/Gallagher than Djitte at this point.
Luckily, Seattle has 12 healthy, eligible senior players. They’re worse off than we are on that front. Added some USL guys on an emergency basis just to field a squad.

I wouldn’t mind limiting McKalla to once a game. We are building history on the fly here so it’s going to take a while to build out the songbook.
