BDS Notes:

Obviously, the big one off the bat is still seeing Osaze Urhoghide out for another match. Eric Quill updated us earlier this week on the various injuries and said that Urhoghide would be out for a couple more weeks.

The one he didn’t give us an update on, which means it may have occurred later in the week is Ramiro. That is actually going to be a pretty big loss for the club when you factor in Kaick and Lalas Abubakar’s suspensions and Show being on international duty.

Had Ramiro been healthy, he would have likely slotted into the full back role this weekend, like we saw against Philadelphia after Abubakar’s red card.

Now the defensive group has even more questions. I think it could be fair to say we’ll see a back four of Shaq Moore, Sebastien Ibeagha, Marco Farfan and I think Nolan Norris. This could also be the chance for Alvaro Augusto to make his debut with the club, but that feels like a stretch.

The midfield could be an interesting group this weekend in Kansas City as well. Sebastian Lletget should make his return to the lineup, and so could Leo Chu. I think we could see another round of Patrickson Delgado in the number six role, like we did against Philadelphia. It weirdly worked then, so maybe it can work again this weekend.
