Would you rather be 1-1-4 with no finishers up top to knock in decisive goals... or 2-2-2 with plenty of proven finishers who aren't being used effectively?
There is a portal entering the final third that morphs this team into a CYC squad...

Don’t like losing, but
think we learned a LOT about this team in those 90 minutes, both strengths and weaknesses.
And that could prove vastly important. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
3 of the best chances to finish by @stlcitysc.com in the last 10 min fell to the feet of Timo Baumgartl at striker.
Far from the only bad sign, but it definitely wasn’t good. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
St. Louis CITY SC lose 1-0 to Austin FC in a game paused by a rain delay. #STLvATX #ALLFORCITY
Jannes Horn went down with a nasty injury - possibly groin, after winning a tackle deep… and Baumgartl subbed in and immediately goes to the striker position.
Why not put a big body in the box at this point in the game? #AllForCITY #STLvATX
I know I said #FreeBaumgartl but I didn’t mean at the 9. #STLvATX
This game state could not be crying out more for a Zalinsky sub. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Interesting. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Tall task ahead for @stlcitysc.com to get 2 goals in 22+ min to take 3 pts at home. 4 essentially fresh players in Klauss, Ostrák, Célio and Watts. Going to need better progression and more verticality to their possessions. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Play resuming shortly.

Klauss and Ostrák are entering for Becher and Morales when play resumes. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Could be something, could be nothing but Klauss and Ostrák are fully dressed during warmups. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Update: The #STLvATX match will restart at 3:45PM
345pm resumption in play scheduled for #STLvATX
Rain delay impacting both Cardinals and CITY SC games.
#STLvATX: ATX leads 1-0 in the 68th minute.
#MINvsSTL: STL leads 8-2 after 4 1/2 innings.
And the match paused 2 min later during a semi-decent CITY build… #AllForCITY #STLvATX
For posterity’s sake to the match… the rain starts to fall in earnest around 65’. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Mother Nature cries tears of joy, Klauss is entering the fray. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
Durkin/Nilsson leave for Célio/Akil at 61’ w/Célio giving instruction to Wallem upon entering.
Akil taking a RM role w/Hartel moving central, Célio at LM and Wallem sliding to the LWB side, Horn dropping to LCB. #AllForCITY #STLvATX
I can't quite put what I dislike about STL but they're just so aggressively mid for me right now.
