Here are 3 key takeaways from Minnesota’s 3-0 loss to Vancouver at BC Place in Vancouver.
A shaky defense
Though Francisco Calvo was out for this one, some serious questions still need to be asked about the defenders on Minnesota’s roster. Out of last night’s back four of Thiesson-Kallman-Boxall-Jome, Thiesson is the only one who certainly looks like he’s MLS quality.
Jome was bad last night, and has been any time he’s been in. While Boxall and Kallman have had good moments, they’ve each had some horrendous positional errors and mental lapses, and I don’t know if they’d start on any other team in MLS.
