Nearly four weeks early? Don't think TFC will allow it, mate, not unless he has a miraculous mend. Come back too early on muscle repairs and he'll be out for another six or eight weeks before we know...
He did swing over to that side in one game and they created a nice chance, because they know each other's style of play so well they could create supportive triangles with just two people. Two...
Yeah, barring something miraculous he's going to miss the first two, I think, at least.
Yeah, having Petretta and Bernardeschi aside could've just meant they're both playing wingback this weekend, as we have a specific wingback coach as well now.
The last I heard he won't start any sort of actual workload until next month and isn't expected back before June. But that was more than a week ago.
Former Reds defender Jeremy Hall is the new head coach of Minnesota United FC2.
Now that is interesting. That's probably really smart given his skillset.
I actually thought Thompson made some strides as a fullback. But he wasn't good. And in midfield now, I'm not even sure what his role is. I think they see him as a six.
He's really naturally...
The Danny can't fly thing was so fucking embarrassing. Probably for him, too.
LA types were sort of openly warning about Bob but I thought it was sour grapes over him leaving. But most I've...
Oh, I think it's bloody cowardice sometimes. In this case, it wasn't like Bob had it in writing that they couldn't interfere, it was a verbal agreement that they wouldn't. Respect that most of the...
Front-office people, too. Poz was the one big change under Bob that they pleaded with him not to pursue, and argued that he'd become part of the DNA of the club. Didn't matter, spoke Spanish (not...
It's pretty galling. $21M per season to get a handful of goals and assists. Even if Insigne stays healthy, I think he'll be lucky to hit double digits, as infrequently as he puts shots on target.
...
Gahd.... that's depressingly true. He was much more productive and dangerous in this league, even in his thirties. He had a bunch of assists in Miami before he went overseas as well.
Fuck Bradley,...
If they insist on using the Italians as primarily goal scorers, I'd say a 10. But ideally, they'd only really expect a ton of goal from Insigne, as Bernardeschi has not been prolific scorer now in...
This, exactly. We create nothing in the box for them to finish. Fede puts two balls into a dangerous, low area with us having at least three men deep in the box, and we get two goals out of it. I...
Yeah, I'd agree with this. Jimenez was equally a poacher, without a lot of movement or range. He was good at find space quickly and finishing accurately. Without a number 10 feeding him on the...
You're not understanding my argument. I'm saying we have to wait to judge, not that he's good.
If we wait until the end of the season to judge... well, that's what I'm suggesting. Your suggestion...
I think the statement "We have no problem getting the ball to dangerous players in good positions" is wildly inaccurate.
Until this last game, nearly all of our service had to come from either...
Great report man, thanks for that!
It's the first time he's gotten decent service since the one chance he was handed in the first game. Too early to write him off as not good enough, way too early. Wait until he starts getting...
They didn't even bring the Idol thing to a vote in the end, according to the Athletic. It will be discussed more in the fall. The consensus seemed to be the managers didn't want a change that seemed...
Charlie Sharp scored in his first start for TFC II, a nice poke into the corner off a rebound.
This and a little arrogance are his two issues; he's just not quick at all, he's lumbering. He's got great technique, real skill on the ball. But he tries to force things he shouldn't (McNaughton had...
That's fair. I think the bigger issue is when guys fuck up but then signal it's the other guys' fault somehow.
We've had a few of those and not just from younger players.
