Ronddwalen met Flying Horseman

Bert Dockx is overduidelijk op dreef. Amper een jaar na het alomgeprezen 'Twist' en enkele maanden na 'I/II' van Dans Dans, zijn andere – bejubelde – band, komt hij met het derde hoofdstuk in de Flying Horseman-zegetocht. Met name 'City Same City', andermaal een ware parel.  

'City Same City', dat binnen een kleine drie weken verschijnt, werd een album uit twee (gespiegelde) delen en is meer dan ooit een echte groepsplaat.

Frontman Bert analyseert, duidt en geniet hoorbaar in de Sterrenplaten van komende vrijdag, niet in het minst omdat de Antwerpenaar zich muzikaal volledig mocht laten gaan: Naast voorproevers van het nieuwe album brengt de man zijn hoogst persoonlijke (en hoogst uitmuntende) invloeden mee.

Deze vrijdag 27 september komt u duimen en vingers tekort. Sterrenplaten vanaf 21u op Radio scorpio, 106fm of stream. (Artwork van de hand van Philippe Werkers)

RED BULLS TOP OF THE TABLE AFTER NARROW WIN OVER FC DALLAS

Samindra Kunti – Thierry Henry struck a pose again last week against Toronto FC – leaning against the stanchion, head casually held down and a hand on hip, implying “You have seen me score before” – and with it started an online trend. Twitter exploded with Photoshopped variants under the hashtag #Henrying. Muhammad Ali, Star Wars, E.T., Games of Thrones and the inevitable Miley Cyrus were all thrown into the mix.

Henry seemed amused by all the #Henrying. “It’s kind of funny at the end of the day. There is nothing behind the celebration. I needed a rest . I stopped there, saw the post in Houston; saw the post the other day, was basically by it, so I stopped by it.” the New York Red Bulls´ captain said Friday after practice.

The pleasant online folly reflects the upbeat spirit permeating the Red Bulls camp at the moment. Sitting top of the Eastern Conference and on a three game winning streak, the Red Bulls have put the days of a mid-season slump and Mike Petke´s altercation with Henry behind them. Petke, intent on attacking football at the start of the season with a 4-3-3, has switched his formation to a pragmatic `get a result´- 4-4-2 and the Red Bulls have been reaping the benefits in recent weeks.

But a result against FC Dallas long seemed in doubt. At half-time the Red Bulls had not managed a single attempt on target. Carney curled a free kick, earned by Cahill, just wide and a goal-line scramble nearly had FC Dallas´s George John score a comical own goal, only for the woodwork to save John´s face. Henry skewed his shot in front of the goalmouth when teed up by Fabian Espindola.

Those were rare highlights from a half in which the Red Bulls exerted mere sterile pressure on FC Dallas´s rearguard. There was no consorted effort from Petke´s men to impose themselves: with Bradley-Wright Phillips hobbling off injured with a strained right hamstring after twenty-six minutes, the Red Bulls missed any sense of direction and purpose. There was a distinct lack of guile and offensive dynamics in the final third of the field.

It was telling that Jamison Olave stood out – for his defensive interventions in the first half. Petke acknowledged the importance of his number four after the game. “Olave has had a rejuvenation in his career. His defensive play this year has been amazing. If you want to teach a youth player how to defend one on one, you show him Olave.” said Petke.

Petke also had praise for his goalkeeper Luis Robles, who ensured the Red Bulls earned a tenth shutout this season. Robles produced a crucial one-handed save at the stroke of half-time when Fabian Castillo was left in space inside the box. “You expect a goalkeeper to come up with one huge save a game. A game changing save and Robles has done that, if not more than that.” commented Petke.

The second half was a more open -ended affair. Henry came agonizingly close to breaking the deadline, but his header, meeting Espindola´s cross from the right, sailed inches wide. Dax McCarty´s and Tim Cahill´s unwearying labour in the midfield ensured the Red Bulls dominated the better part of the second half as FC Dallas started to tire.

With the clock ticking down, Petke became visibly more nervous on the touchline. He urged his troops to push forward with wild gesticulations. The Red Bulls didn´t have their opponents in a stranglehold, but did tighten their grip on the game. It was Erick from FC Dallas, who provided relief for the hosts when he slid and steered Jonathan Steele´s cross into the back of his own net with fourteen minutes left. Eric Alexander should have put the game to bed two minutes later: face to face with FC Dallas´goalkeeper Raul Fernandez, Alexander opened his hips too soon enabling Fernandez to correctly guess the curve of the ball.

The Red Bulls continue to sit at the top of the Eastern Conference with a three-point lead over Sporting Kansas City. Petke and co travel to CenturyLink Field next week to take on Western Conference leaders Seattle Sounders.

HENRY AND ESPINDOLA FIRE THE RED BULLS TOP OF THE TABLE

For unclear reasons the New York Red Bulls sported their away outfit of dark blue shirts and yellow shorts at their own arena against Toronto FC last Saturday. On the road the Red Bulls have struggled this season, but last week the New York team hammered Houston FC 1-4 away from home. In their away outfit at home the Red Bulls continued their good sequence with a decent 2-0 victory over Toronto FC.
It was a game the Red Bulls were favoured to win, having picked up 28 points at home this season. A tally surpassing Toronto´s 23 points collected in total so far. Surprisingly the visitors, coached by Ryan Nelsen, had the better of the play in the opening minutes, pressing the home side deep into their own half.
Kimura´s stretching intervention cleared Bloom´s dangerous cross from the right channel after 15 minutes. Dax McCarthy´s attempted a meek volley at the other end. For all Toronto´s domination and probing though, there first clear-cut chance materialized after 25 minutes when Wiedeman´s diving header from Alvaro´s cross nearly kissed the crossbar.
Then Thierry Henry took centre stage. Against the run of play he put the Red Bulls in front after 32 minutes: Bustamante´s pass found Alexander in behind the back of a terribly marking Morgan; Alexander composedly squared it for Henry to simply tuck it in at the far post. Henry´s celebrated his goal by showing off his new trademark celebration in leaning against the post.
Yet it was a clear statement from the Frenchmen, underlining his importance to the Red Bulls. The club captain and coach Petke were involved in a heated bust-up on August 29 during a training session. And while the content of the fiery exchange remains shrouded in mystery, the beleaguered Petke covertly admitted earlier in the week that the argument with Henry had galvanized the Red Bulls.
Henry himself showed a positive attitude on the field. A permanent feature of his game was dropping back to carry out defensive duties. Bradley Wright-Phillips and Henry had been feeding of scraps, playing in total isolation up front. Henry sensed this and duly took up defensive responsibilities. The Red Bulls´ number fourteen showed no sign of discontent in doing so.
Henry´s goal and the preceding interplay with Alexander and Bustamante were the sole highlight in a rather ugly first-half with the Red Bulls and Toronto both battling for midfield supremacy, but after Henry´s goal the Red Bulls took control of the match, which reflected in 61.4 % of ball possession for Petke´s men at the interval.
The only satisfaction Petke could take from the first half was the numerical advantage on the scoreboard. The Red Bulls had put in an underwhelming act against uninspired and weak opposition. But Petke´s half-time talk did not spur particular improvement after the break.
More industry and slow ball movement in the middle of the park permeated the course of the second half. Toronto were clanging on to keep their chances of making the play-offs alive, while the Red Bulls looked to extend their lead. Thierry Henry´s cross found Holgersson deep inside the box after 60 minutes, but from a difficult angle the Swede´s header was an easy catch for Toronto goalkeeper Joseph Bendik.
Bradley Wright-Phillips, indifferent, squandered an opportunity at the edge of the box a few minutes later when his low attempt lacked any sort of power, but he tested Bendik a little later with a strong header. The Toronto goalie did well to prevent a second Red Bulls´ goal. But as Ryan Nelsen threw on Bright Dyke, recently acquired from the Portland Timbers and a Super Eagle on November 14, 2012 against Venezuela, the Red Bulls decided the game with an unlikely goal from Fabian Espindola.
Espindola came on Bradley-Wright Phillips and instantly proved to be a super-sub for Mike Petke. Barely a few seconds on the field, Espindola was first to react to a flick on by Steven Caldwell from David Carney´s deflected cross and Espindola´s header from an improbable, if not impossible, angle deceived Bendik to double the Red Bulls´s advantage. It was a header Espindola couldn´t have nailed better.
It was sluggish from the Red Bulls at times, but Petke indicated that in post-match press conference that he was satisfied with his team´s performance and happy with the three points.The Red Bulls now move to the top of the MLS Eastern Conference, opening up a three point advantage over nearest rivals of Montreal Impact and Kansas City with five games left in the regular season.
