The loss to Montreal

HULK HAD FUNNIEST DREAM THAT HACK PLAYED A LB ON WING VS MONTREAL EXPOS! HAHAHAHA WAIT THAT WAS REAL? #DOOP
— UNION HULK (@HulkUnionSmash) April 27, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Craziest lineup since Mad King Peter’s 5 at the back in the Houston playoff tie at PPL. Too much to ask for a sane manager?
— John Davis (@jjdavis1213) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg @PhilaUnion how is wheeler ranked as a starting CB over Berry ….ridiculous
— Justin Haviland (@CoachHaviland) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Amobi AGAIN refused to close down that space
— Black Hand (@BlackHand75) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg not great by Zach but that’s going to happen sometimes. It’s the defending or lack there of that bothers me.
— David Shoolin (@pyromantic13) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg why couldn’t they use #1 overall for defense? What’s the plan for Blake?
— SafetyRope (@SafetyRope) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Williams looking really shaky.
— ps8 (@PhilSoc8) April 26, 2014
@PSP_Eli @phillysoccerpg Mo was having trouble getting back…with Carroll on his shoulders.
— Black Hand (@BlackHand75) April 26, 2014
@BlackHand75 @phillysoccerpg Cruz is made out of bouncyball. If he ever directs his energy at goal, it will always go in.
— Scott Pugh (@SPugger77) April 26, 2014
Can I say that the departure of Jack Mac let’s Danny Cruz showcase his stuff a little more? @phillysoccerpg
— Jason VanDuyne (@JasonVanduyne) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Sp we’ve given up on Maidana and Berry already in favor of 2 of Hack’s pets.
— John Davis (@jjdavis1213) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Great. Union now playing with 2 RWs, 2 CMs and 2 STs. How does this sub make sense?
— Michael Joseph Rullo (@MichaelRullo) April 26, 2014
No, this is MLS. RT @GSH3: @phillysoccerpg At some point, doesn’t Camara have to get another yellow for persistent fouling?
— Philly Soccer Page (@phillysoccerpg) April 26, 2014
Wenger’s weakness is becoming apparent to me today. Speed of thought. @phillysoccerpg good news is that should improve.
— Scott Pugh (@SPugger77) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Why is Chaco on the right? Why do we have no RB? Why do we have 3 STs but an in form CAM on the bench? All ?s, all Hackworth
— Michael Joseph Rullo (@MichaelRullo) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Jesus this team sucks
— James Owens (@JamesOwens22) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg with all this pointless possession and these ineffective crosses this Union team is the MLS version of the Moyes Man U.
— Vaughn Ross (@vaughnross) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg This team is mis-managed, mis-coached, and out-played. #HackOut he’s had his time. Give someone else a chance.
— Brandon Johnson (@BrandonJawnson) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg First time I’ve questioned the heart of an @PhilaUnion team. They don’t have the fight and grit we use to see. Sad day.
— Michael Joseph Rullo (@MichaelRullo) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Just way too many questionable decisions, by coaches, and players alike. Feeling like 2012 all over again…hope im wrong.
— Matt Strehlau (@mattstrehlawho) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg personally don’t think I’ll be watching the U next week. Need a break from this train wreck. #HackworthOut #FireHack
— James Stroud (@jstroud3) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg the coach isn’t a very good coach. The players don’t have confidence in him. Need to do something before a moyes situation
— Timmy Bridel (@tbridel520) April 26, 2014
@phillysoccerpg don’t think the players are buying into this “system.” I mean, that was their reasoning for trading Jack, the “system”
— Matt Strehlau (@mattstrehlawho) April 26, 2014
Parking the bus
I don’t understand why people complain about a team parking the bus. If they win isn’t that all that matters? #chelseagame

Madrid wow!
— Maurice Edu (@MauriceEdu) April 29, 2014
Cue the possession with purpose vs false possession debate lol
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) April 29, 2014
Unbelievable first half. No one saw that coming. Looks like Real Madrid in the final #ChampionsLeague #RMAFCB
— Zachary Pfeffer (@ZachPfeffer_27) April 29, 2014
Feel like I just tuned into a bad game of Fifa #ChampionsLeague
— Michael Lahoud (@MikeLahoud) April 29, 2014
Ancelotti did a great job fine tuning all the ground work Mourinho did with REAL Madrid ..but people won’t give the special one credit
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) April 29, 2014
Will Mourinho call Greyhound at halftime?
— Ethan White (@EthanWhite15) April 30, 2014
Right before the half though not to worried … Ba in the 83 to win
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) April 30, 2014
Only way I will forgive eto is if he scores a hat trick
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) April 30, 2014
Game!!!!! All Madrid final!
— Maurice Edu (@MauriceEdu) April 30, 2014
Next year blues …if Mourinho can’t win let’s hope Madrid gets la decima
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) April 30, 2014

Always nice to be back in Seattle. Met lots of wonderful people here #memories #SoundersVsUnion

@amobisays @jalil_anibaba4 no hospitality for the enemy #sounders (hit us up after the game though) hahaha

Forgive the narcissism, but I just wanted to show Earl’s photo again…
Is there a better image than this one by @EarlWGardner that sums up the Union’s season so far? pic.twitter.com/7Kr4Z3mWTh

Thanks Mike. I really needed a giggle today.
