Jose Martinez - Training away from group Martinez (undisclosed) has been doing work on the side this week and it's unclear whether he'll be available to face Charlotte FC on Saturday, according to Joe Tansey of Bleacher R...Impact It's unclear what kind of issue Martinez is dealing with, but it doesn't seem as if the midfielder will be able to recover in time for Saturday's clash. Martinez has started in all but two of his 12 league appearances in 2024, and if he can't go Saturday, then Jesus Bueno or Sanders Ngabo would be options to replace him. 2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Damion Lowe - Back in full training Lowe (back) is back in full training Thursday and should be an option to face Charlotte FC on Saturday, according to Joe Tansey of Bleacher Report.Impact Lowe has missed the last two Union matches due to a nagging back problem, but the fact that he participated in full training Thursday certainly improves his chances of playing over the weekend. Given Lowe has started in each of his eight appearances this season, it wouldn't be shocking if he moves into the XI straight away. 2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Andre Blake - Severity of injury remains unclear Blake (knee) is getting a second opinion on his knee injury, manager Jim Curtin told media during Thursday's press conference. "We're still getting to the bottom of what exactly is...Impact Blake recently signed a new contract that will keep him in Philadelphia until the end of the 2026 season with a club option for 2027, but there's uncertainty as to when he'll be able to return to the pitch. He's missed four games in a row, and his chances of playing against Charlotte on Saturday look slim to none, though the fact that he's getting a second option will rule him out for that match. If that's the case, then Oliver Semmle should remain between the posts for the Union until Blake is ready to return. 2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Andre Blake - Will stay in Philly Blake has agreed on a new two-year contract with the Union, with a club option for 2027.Impact Blake has been with the Union his entire career after being selected by the team during the 2024 MLS draft. He's won the MLS keeper of the year three times while also leading the side to the Supporters Shield in 2020. Since 2017, Blake had started 213 MLS matches, averaging about 80 saves per season while keeping 69 clean sheets. 2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Mikael Uhre - Three shots in win over New England Uhre placed three shots (one on goal) and created a chance in Saturday's 3-0 victory over the New England Revolution.Impact Uhre could have been more effective Saturday. The striker only managed one shot on goal before he was subbed after 68 minutes for Quinn Sullivan. The Danish striker has scored in two of his last seven appearances. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Quinn Sullivan - Finds net from bench in win Sullivan registered three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 win over the New England Revolution.Impact Sullivan came on after 67 minutes for Mikael Uhre. The 20-year-old brought fresh attacking energy to Philly's attack, placing two shots on goal. He is usually a starter but has not been in sharp form recently. It has been five games since his last assist and ten since he last found the net. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Jack McGlynn - Assist in win McGlynn created an assist, and placed three shots (one on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-0 victory over the New England Revolution.Impact McGlynn came on after 28 minutes for Jose Andres Martinez. He was a lightning rod for Philadelphia with his creative plays and was rewarded by producing the assist for the game's opening goal scored by Julian Carranza. The 20-year-old attacking midfielder is in hot form, he has posted two assists and found the net twice from Philly's last five matches. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Julian Carranza - Nets one in win over new England Carranza placed three shots, scoring with his one on goal effort. He also created a chance in Saturday's 3-0 win over the New England Revolution.Impact Carranza found the net Saturday to score the opening goal in Philly's win over New England. The 23-year-old Argentinian has now scored in back to back games and accrued six goals season to date. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Daniel Gazdag - Double strike in win over New England Gazdag scored from two of his three on goal efforts. He also created two chances in Saturday's 3-0 victory over the New England Revolution.Impact Gazdag posted an outstanding performance in the center of Philly's attack Saturday. He found the net twice to move himself to become one of the top scorers in the league. He was subbed after 89 minutes. The Hungarian striker has found the net seven times in Philly's last nine games. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Oliver Semmle - Clean sheet in win over new England Semmle made three saves and kept a clean sheet in Saturday's 3-0 win over the New England Revolution.Impact Semmie saved all three shots he faced on goal Saturday to return a clean sheet, his second of the season. The German has been Philadephia's starting keeper for the last five games, it has been eight appearances since his last clean sheet. He has a good chance of improving that in Philly's next against Charlotte. They have netted just five goals from their last five outings. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
