It’s mostly dangerous to lose 10 pounds in two hours, on a repeated basis.
"There are some people who might have better technique than me, and some may be fitter than me, but the main thing is tactics. With most players, tactics are missing. You can divide tactics into insight, trust, and daring." - Johan Cruyff

In response to some of the comments that RSL's owner made this morning about the players' protesting, Jozy said he is involved in a group that is ready to purchase the team.

Can Jozy own a team and be a roster player for another team in the same league? Seems like a conflict of interest.
Doubt it. The only instances of player-owners I can recall are Mario Lemieux with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Michael Jordan with the Washington Wizards (also Wayne Gretzky was owner and head coach of the Phoenix Coyotes). All were the same team they owned. Could be one way to get out of his contract if he has to retire/be traded to Real Salt Lake. I love Jozy, but far too injury prone for an expensive DP.
2020 is so weird....
Reminder here that the biggest issue about this is RSL's owner is a racist plutocrat who spends money on his coin collection while threatening to lay off staf due to the strike last night.
As Caldwell says, get him out of the game.

And, an Athletic article out tonight with more (paywall)

The stuff in that article should get Hansen fired as an owner.

Yeah. That article should be the nail in the coffin for the racist scumbag.
Jon Arnold has a point about MLS in this tweet

Interesting. Guessing the guys will be calling New Jersey home soon enough.
Steve replied to his tweet with this, not sure if this means from wherever the Reds may be based or Toronto. I do wonder if it is in and out does the Canadian government allow that. Land, go to the stadium, play the game and head straight back to the airport and fly out. There would not be many opportunities for exposure with that. Just a thought that crossed my mind. If you have confidence in luck turn around Covid testing it could work. The Pac 12 has signed a deal for rapid testing.

Rumours running around soccer twitter
Announced today
Only 3 games being announced - done over 2 week period
IMO that would be a huge disadvantage for any visitor team.
They would start the match tired plus without any kind of training/accomodation in/to that city, stadium, atmosphere.
Everybody is not Seba, landing from another continent, going straight to the stadium, and becoming the man of the match.
(At least it was his team's home stadium, lol...)

TORONTO FC, 2017 MLS CHAMPIONS!!! (Still the greatest in league history!)
Gonzalo Higuain to Inter Miami is a done deal
Beitashour to Colorado - like Moor, will be a backup.
Forge just went up 1-0 on a nice play by former Red Mo Babouli. 25 or so min away from a Toronto Hamilton Canadian Final.

Montero playing well again for Vancouver in the #10 role. I really feel MDS just got lucky here having rolled the dice so many times he eventually landed on a formula that works.
Really liking Gutierrez. Defensive minded fullback can put in a good cross. I would make him the first choice left back if he commits to Canada.
