  1. Tyler is the most American player we’ve ever produced because he would rule in any era. Imagine him, Claudio Reyna, & John O’Brien. Cool thing is that he and Wes + Yunus are a dream combo and they’re all still younger than their primes. Gonna need Wes to continue his freakish fast healing
  2. #MLS4UCL
  3. The prince who was promised
  4. I think you guys need to see how the increased peak intensity workload during a pro season plays out before you make any assumptions. Maybe I’m an idiot for thinking a rest recovery window before & after is better for players, but I don’t think so. But you’re right that Reece James was just me hopping on prematurely because I wanted to grind my axe. I didn’t make the point well. There are just so many players who are rushing back from early season injuries to make the cup and the intensity if the prep and game load is totally different from any other season. It’s going to take a big toll in the second half of the club calendar. Why are we doing it? For very bad reasons.
  5. Injuries after the tournament, sure. Not before. Actually, no. I disagree with you fully.
  6. Good news for our left flank but yet another example of why an in-season World Cup to accommodate capitalist fascists is really terrible.
  7. I literally was just thinking about this. Micah Richards is the true heir to Charles Barkley. Draymond ain’t it. Titi is the perfect straight man. Carragher is Kenny Smith. A great middle ground. And Kate Abdo is a hot Ernie Johnson. It’s incredible TV. Their producers have done a really good job and deserve a ton of credit because their USMNT team is also very very good and fun. Gooch is kind of meh and Chuck D sometimes is a little too try hard, but they’re by far the best USMNT studio show ever. Deuce is obviously perfect. Shout out to CBS.
  8. I’m not an owner/management guy, but this seems to be a recurring dynamic across all major sports where “max players” to use the NBA vernacular get too much organizational control.
  9. Just confirms he should’ve gone to Ajax
  10. Somebody should let Jorge know that someone just compared him to Haaland. Huge W for him. Milan & Chelsea still talking re: CP
  11. This man’s quads and hammies are my enemies
  12. Yep. This has been the Gregg norm. We just have to hope we summon the results when it matters like we did in nations league and the gold cup. Beating Mexico in two finals has overshadowed the fact that his teams have been clunky in the attack since day one and it hasn’t really progressed much from there. One thing is for sure, either yunus and miles Robinson are way better than we think (and I think they are very good), or this is just a typical Gregg stretch. Can’t wait for the next cycle already. I might be going joker mode for this World Cup and just root for max chaos for my team.
  13. Tim Weah is the least of our good euro wingers and yet every time he doesn’t play, we look like this. This is why I don’t understand why we never even sampled him at the 9.
  14. Gio off early damn
  15. I love Weston crashing the high post to initiate the offense. He’s almost single handedly setting the pace of the game right now.
  16. Also, Gregg loves to intentionally underprepare for friendlies to make the players “uncomfortable” while giving no F’s about how uncomfortable it makes fans. Btw, it’s starting to sink in for me how much I associate the World Cup with summer and how less special this one feels because of the calendar and the soulless host country.
  17. Wes has been a step off for Juve too. Not fully sharp after the injury.
  18. I am thrilled with this dog horsefeathers performance because I’m pretty sure Matty Nice just grabbed the #1 spot with that Tim Howardesque performance.
  19. First half summary Vines and Long were both 100% garbage
  20. I have to own this one. My bad, guys. I ordered that jersey WAY too early.
  21. Nah bro Gio’s injuries were just because he was playing elite sport during a late puberty growth spurt. Pull the trigger. He’ll never get injured again. To all the people who think the home Jersey is better, I’d ask you how you think that will look in a regular outfit with like jeans or something. TJ Maxx ass jersey.
  22. Having a mom in her 60’s who is predictably obsessed with CBS prime time programming has really paid off for me. I have officially purchased a Musah away jersey for the World Cup. The slightly less boring option. I have plenty of old home white jerseys from better designs anyway.
  23. In what sports world does a new owner keep the old regime past failure? Tuchel had a shot, he blew it, time to build the new Chelsea.
