  1. TT I’m sorry but I am absolutely rooting for Mexico L’s. They could easily not qualify. I need that to happen. No Chucky, no Jimenez, and a slumping Funes Mori FRACASO!
  2. https://twitter.com/johnspacemuller/status/1486774023887503367?s=21 Always worth revisiting that piece, Gregg. Just sayin.
  3. Today is a pretty big day in Matt Turner’s life.
  4. Slonina is cool because the Poland interest was real. We need to develop more keeper prospects. De La Torre is good. I think Turner is already on the plane to Qatar, most likely as the #2, and everyone grows up wanting to play for a club like Arsenal. So if you’re already 27, and you’ve already had an incredible, unlikely rise to a level no one ever expected for you, why not go and be a back up? What a cool journey.
  5. I’ve watched barely any premier league this year. Would he play? Would all the people who thought Steffen was better because of the club that signs his check do an immediate 180 if he’s starting? This transfer window is wild for Americans.
  6. Thomas Tuchel is just a walking bad vibe. I believe Dest would be a great fit for him tactically, but I just don't trust the man. He's got the shelf life of unrefrigerated milk.
  7. Seems like RB didn't have a plan with all the coaching and administratrive turnover they had, because they keep talking about how they knew Jesse's pressing system wasn't what they wanted when they hired him. Bizarrely handled. I'm sure he'll land on his feet, even if he ends up at LAFC or whatever. Chris Armas joining Ragnick at United is another odd one.
  8. Sure, yeah, let’s do it.
  9. Pretty clear that to reach our potential, we need a healthy MMA midfield to play. Every game where one of those guys is unavailable, we struggle to execute our game. Aaronson also has emerged as the clear bench candidate when Reyna and/or Pulisic are fit.
  10. Canada blew the vibe by not doing an acapella crowd anthem.
  11. I had no idea something that pretty could happen on a pitch that awful
  12. Tim Weah. What a player
  13. Busio in. Thank you, Gregg. Let’s take it to em
  14. Meanwhile, in north America’s northernmost 1M+ metro area: https://twitter.com/uncledall/status/1460624027681124361?s=21
  15. Oh yes, please. Give us the chaos, Belgium! That would be delightful.
  16. He’s been killing Madrid in champions league since he was 18, he’d be a guaranteed starter when fit based on roster, and it’s a much less physical league. Let’s do it.
  17. This is reckless, but I’d love to see research into the rate of fouls not called perpetrated against black players vs others in concacaf matches.
  18. Who needs coffee in the morning when we have these?
  19. “I think it was a game of many volatile moments,” Martino said when asked to summarize Mexico’s performance. “When we matched the intensity of the United States we created chances and I think we were the better team.“ -Tata lol keep that same energy forever, guys. This is the biggest issue holding Mexican soccer back. They never address systemic issues because they actually believe they are better and a different coach or a different run of luck will prove them right. Can’t wait to see Canada beat them next.
  20. Yeah this was a masterclass from GGG & the players. Shout out to the el tri community, tho. Going to be harder than ever for them to convince themselves they’re still better. They’ve got their work cut out for them. The craziest part is still who do you bench if everyone in the attack is healthy. Weah has been so, so good. I’m starting to see the 2026 hope. This is a really good team. Which reminds me that this is the last Mexico home qualifier for 8 years. OF COURSE we had to dos a cero.
  21. I don’t know why people don’t expect Scally to start. GGG has already dropped multiple “untested” young guys into the lineup vs el tri in huge games. Bello & Robinson. If he starts Arriola over Weah, I will be irritated. Weah does everything Arriola does but better and with way more explosion/athleticism.
  22. Cool profile of Brenden Aaronson: https://theathletic.com/2949381/2021/11/11/hes-ruthless-man-how-brenden-aaronsons-career-started-flying-with-union-salzburg-and-usmnt/?source=user_shared_article
  23. I felt so powerful when that happened.
