ImpactGimenez was excellent in midfield on Saturday, keeping a clean sheet against New York and chipping in on attack as well. He will hope to have a similar performance in a few weeks against Sporting KC, which are second in the Western Conference.

ImpactClark returned to the starting lineup on Saturday but he couldn't make the difference against the Fire. He hasn't won a game when starting for the Red Bulls since mid-June, but he will try to end that drought in a few weeks against D.C. United, which are seventh in the Eastern Conference.

John Tolkin - Takes two shots in lossTolkin took two shots (one on target) and created two chances in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Chicago. He also made an interception in the match.
ImpactTolkin played pretty well going forward from defensive midfield on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to inspire his team to a result against the Fire. In a few weeks he will face D.C. United, by which point Cristian Casseres might be fit again and Tolkin could return to left back.

Fabio - Takes three shots in lossFabio took three shots and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Chicago. He also made a clearance in the match.
ImpactFabio was active in attack against the Fire, but he couldn't find an equalizer on Saturday. Only 11 of his 59 shots have been on target this season (less than 20 percent) and though he's averaging almost 3.5 shots per 90 minutes, he is yet to record a game with multiple shots on target. He will want to be more clinical as the season goes on.
