## Resource

A little bit of a longer episoide.... The Columbus Crew had a chance to get back on track against a CF Montreal team that had not won a game since May. Instead, they lost 2-1. Jay and Matt break down one of the most disheartening performances of the season and ask the question that is becoming harder and harder to ignore: what is going wrong with this team? From the opening minutes, Columbus never looked like the better side. We talk through the biggest moments of the match, the lack of energy and urgency, and why this felt like a game the Crew absolutely needed to win before an increasingly difficult stretch of the schedule. With injuries and absences continuing to affect the squad, how much of this falls on the players, how much falls on the roster construction, and how much can realistically change? The Crew have been in difficult spots before. But with stronger opponents coming up and little room left for more disappointing performances, the urgency is growing.
