New York Red Bulls must "stop the bleeding". That is the message coming from coach Jesse Marsch, who is set to ring the changes against Real Salt Lake.
The Red Bulls entertain RSL on Wednesday attempting to arrest a five-match winless streak after crashing to a fourth consecutive defeat against Vancouver Whitecaps over the weekend.
"Certain guys have shown that they're hungry," Marsch told reporters.
"It's not like we're going to change the philosophy, but we need to look hard at which guys right now are ready to step up and do whatever it takes.
"We're figuring out how to put 11 guys on the field on Wednesday that are going to go out there and win, period.
"Win ugly, win pretty; win in whatever way possible. That's where we're at right now. We have to figure out a way to stop the bleeding."
Red Bulls captain Dax McCarty added: "If we have to play like bastards, if we have to play cynical, if we have to kick people, if we have to be physical, if we have to get up in guys' faces, then we need to change that."
