Ronny Deila, head coach of Atlanta United, has publicly taken responsibility for the team's recent poor performance, particularly following a heavy 3-0 defeat to the Philadelphia Union. Despite having a majority of the ball, Atlanta struggled to convert chances into goals, highlighted by missed opportunities from players like Aleksey Miranchuk and Saba Lobjanidze. Deila acknowledged the team's collective and individual underperformance and emphasized the need for improvement. Atlanta's current position in the Eastern Conference standings is concerning, sitting at 12th with only nine points from nine games, raising questions ahead of their match against neighboring Orlando City, who also face their struggles.
Of course, I'm very disappointed. I think, in the game, we have a lot of the ball, but we are not getting enough in the two boxes.
We are underperforming as a team and also as individuals. That's something that I have to look myself in the mirror for and take responsibility.
