Well, a 1-1 draw with Newell's Old Boys is a fairly impressive result.  I am really high on the Doctor (anyone who can score 2 goals against Rangers has to be good right?  Especially playing with the garbage around him like Gretna has).  What is better than a gigantic Scottish striker?  I really am liking how this team is shaping up.  The back line I think is solid.  I think we have a good d-mid in Dema.  We already know Rimando is the best goalkeeper in MLS.  Beckerman and Sturgis are great in midfield.  I think Morales is everything we expected from last year and will be a truly dangerous a-mid in MLS.  I think we shored up our front line with Espindola, Movsisyan, the Doctor (I love that nickname), and Findley.  We have a good combination of size, speed and skill up top. 

I don't know about team chemistry as I haven't seen film as of yet, aside from a few highlights and stuff.  If the team gels in time, I think RSL has the possibility of being very dangerous.  I don't think they will be better than Houston or the Goats, but I will be more disappointed this year if we don't make the playoffs than in previous years.  Of course, as an RSL fan, we have come to expect disappointment.
