After taking claim to the MLS Cup in 2008, the Crew have gotten off to a bit of a rocky start so far in 2009. It's not that the boys have lost a lot of games, but rather that they have not won many. The team has six ties and one win through their first nine games leaving them with only nine points a spot in the eastern conference cellar.
Through the first nine games, the team has managed to score more than one goal only twice, and has allowed at least one goal every game. Furthermore, only two players (Schelotto & Epko) have recorded more than one goal this season. Guys other than Schelotto will certainly need to step it up for the team to get back on track.
The good news is they have been tying these games and not losing them. With all the same firepower back from last year, we can only expect the boys to get back on track and start putting some goals in the net. Don't worry boys its a long season, there's still time to turn things around. But as for now, if they're gonna turn those T's into W's, they're gonna have to do like their motto and "play harder".
