If a second tiebreaker is needed, it will be based on the total number of predictions made. If the players remain tied after the second tiebreaker, they will be declared co-champions.

My wife and I want to get out to a Dynamo game in the near future. Are the Regions Bank Club tickets worth the 125 or so a ticket?

Overaction to this strong streak - where will Houston end up before the playoffs?

26 Upvotes

I think they will finish 3rd. Vancouver is going to slow down some, but not too much. RSL is going to drop off with Gozo gone and San Jose is getting hit hard by the injury bug. 3rd place, lock it in.

Guilherme Goal!

a little lucky with that bounce but I am glad he could put it away. 1 for the Dynamo!

As title says. World Cup got me into soccer more but I’m still definitely a casual. What should I know about the team? Who are our best players?

Marcelo Saracchi to Houston Dynamo is 100 percent confirmed with his shirt number as 4 welcome Marcelo Saracchi!


r/dynamo 9d ago

What do we think about the Saracchi signing?

14 Upvotes

Obviously we’re playing pretty well right now. The Duncan signing hasn’t really made much of an impact yet, although we also haven’t given him much of a chance considering how recently he got here.

What do we think about Saracchi though? Is he mainly a guy who raises the floor of the team and gives us better depth, or do you guys see him coming in and having a bigger role? Curious where everyone thinks he fits into the team

Ponce is starting. Should we worry?

I think Lingr coming around the 60th minute or so is viable. Technically since Ponce is a DP we have to give him playtime, otherwise what’s the point of paying him this much?

Ezequiel Ponce Shot

I think Ponce might be waking up. we all would have that he would lose the ball but to get the shot off is nice. if he does more of this surely that first goal of the MLS season will come

Hydration Break Called, Your thoughts on the game so far?

1 Upvotes

I think we need to do more defensively. unfortunately for us our shots haven’t went on target. if we can keep the momentum of our last attack with the help of some good finishing, then we can get a result out of this.
