Match

Chastening afternoon for New England Revolution

A 0‑3 beating by Columbus Crew was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Squad

Real improvement from Cody Baker at New England Revolution

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Cody Baker is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Words at New England Revolution training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dániel Gazdag is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Boardroom

Nobody left the New England Revolution dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑3 John Brooks left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout

Malcolm Fry gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout

New England Revolution pick somebody else ahead of Ethan Kohler

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jackson Yueill

Successful dribbles: 13. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

The Carles Gil talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. New England Revolution know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad

Matt Turner keeps New England Revolution in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 10 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings

A brace, and Dániel Gazdag takes the afternoon — 8.62

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Dániel Gazdag provided it, and the 8.62 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Match

The wait goes on for New England Revolution

7 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Words exchanged at New England Revolution

Jack Harrison and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match

Late, late show earns New England Revolution a point

Minute 85, against New York Red Bulls, and a goal that felt like a win to everybody who had stayed. It was a draw. Nobody leaving the ground will describe it as one.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jack Harrison

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Honours even between New England Revolution and New York Red Bulls

2‑2, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” John Brooks was not hiding it after 2‑2, and nobody in the New England Revolution dressing room was either.

The dugout

No hiding place for J.D. Gunn

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to J.D. Gunn, and the manager let it.

In brief

  • The dugout Somebody else is better right now than Will Sands
  • Market The Carles Gil talk will not go away
  • The dugout The plan did not have a place for Malcolm Fry
