Chuffed he's gone personally.
Very expensive non contributor.

LAFC and ATL UTD are very exciting teams because they are all flair and young, its nice to see them. Everyone else is meh.
It blows me away that Atlanta pull in over 70000 fans every other week. Sporting capital of the South I think.
Why, cos Mancienne has gone there?
You need to get out more
Kept everyone nicely onside there...
He'll struggle over there, more pace and strength in that league, which he doesn't exactly cope with too well.
Mance enjoying his retirement ..oh deary me!!

I think option 1 should have been step up with your other defenders.
Only excuse was they were chasing the game at that point with a few mins left...your right though it was suicide with such a high Line and the LB in another zip code !The line is too high as well for where the ball is. It needs to be 5-10 yards further back to not leave 60 yards of space with a simple ball over the top. A line on the halfway line when the ball is only 15 yards further forward and NOT in your possession is suicide.
Mancienne shouldn't get drawn to the ball so easily and could probably do more to get back, but he's not solely to blame. All four defenders are equally at fault.

Pause it before you start the video, his positioning is OK. The left back has gone AWOL, so his choices are:
1) Mark the man in the middle
2) Mark the man out wide
3) Mark the space in the middle.
Both 2 + 3 results in an easy through ball with no chance of catching the man in the middle.
1 requires a decent ball over the top and gives Mance better chance (albeit still not great) of getting back to block.
Video looks worse than it is because he gets drawn slightly to the ball, presumably trying to maintain the offside line thinking his full back is inline, but ultimately the fault is that there's no cover at full back whatsoever.
Think he's had the last laugh.
