I don't think being in a "rebuild" is an accurate way to describe what is happening. That implies they are systematically taking steps to rebuild and improve the team. I don't see that happening and the team is generally terrible with poor performances all around.

You know, most teams coming off what they perceive to have been a, shall we say, screw job, come in with a major chip on their shoulders and play like fiends. These guys? Played like they fully expected to lose. WHAT Is going on in the locker room? Are they being beaten before they get on the field?

Seems like these players are not happy playing for Mr. Perfect Porter and his staff. I will be willing to bet with contracts running out at the end of the season you may see players moving on to other teams. I for one wouldn't blame them.

This team is a fascinating train wreck of an old and expensive locomotive. What is going on with the lack of attacking?

This analysis of Borrerro is fully on-target - sulking so obviously and so repeatedly means sayonara.

What made captain Carles slap at the bouncing ball like a junior high malcontent? Are we basically playing without any strikers except for Esmir, leaving Vrioni to lumber around like a football tight end?
