Atlanta United faces off against Colorado on Saturday in what is close to a "must win" match for both teams.

It's been a rough go so far for Atlanta United, with them only scratching out one win thus far on the still young sesason. But who shoulders the blame for this torrid start after winning the MLS Cup last year? A lot of people want to point the finger at new head coach Frank de Boer, and ultimately the responsibility always falls on the head coach. But should it?

It's no secret that de Boer came in with a new game plan that the team is still getting used to, but let us not forget that they also lost one of the fastest players in last year's MLS in Miguel Almiron. And afterall, de Boer isn't on the field missing shots on goal last time I checked...

The AJC's Doug Roberson joins Sam Crenshaw and Greg Clarkson on "WEeekend Mornings" to discuss this and how to turn the 2019 season around.
