First game of the year last night! Missed that beautiful stadium.

Thought Bevan looked excellent in the 1st half. Awesome movement, really created some good chances. Faded in the 2nd half but the entire team seemed to.

First chance to see the new LB Vliet, thought he started off a bit rough, but grew into the game until the penalty. I have yet to see any contact to justify the penalty so very unlucky. Then struggled again after until he was subbed. Hopefully he can get his legs under him and kick on the rest of the way.

Yao was his normal awesome self, if there is a better cb in the league I have not seen him.

Klomp is not an RB in my opinion. Always love him as a CB in a back four, he might have to wait for Trafford to lose form though.

Escalante is so dangerous on the wing, hopefully Vliet allows him to stay there this year.

Between Bevan and Mason, it looks like we have are really dangerous at forward, might make up for the lack of a playmaker in the middle.

Thought overall, the first half they looked great, second half they really dropped off. Hard to evaluate too much as Edmonton is a mess.

Finally tip of the cap to the few FC Edmonton fans that did come cheer, always great to have away fans.
