On bench Saturday

Bamba (personal) is on the bench for Saturday's contest versus Cincinnati.

Analysis: Bamba could play a role again following his two-game absence in league play, offering a solid alternative to Robin Lod on the left flank. The Ivorian was in great form before getting hurt, having scored or assisted in each of his latest three starts. He'll try to make an impact off the bench before pushing for an increased role in the next fixtures.

Back in training

Bamba (personal) took part in Tuesday's practice after being away from the team for the past two weeks, Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports reports.

Analysis: Bamba's potential return in upcoming fixtures would imply a big boost to the squad, with the midfielder previously seeing a lot of action on the left wing. He has scored two goals and delivered two assists over six MLS starts this season. His inclusion in the initial squad would push Puso Dithejane back to a bench spot going forward.
