I'm okay with Thommy - Walter - Rodoja as the starting midfield. I know Thommy wanders and all, but I don't think he's the net detriment to Salloi...
Yeah. He got hot at the right time and secured his payday. Honestly, great outcome for him, and I don't really begrudge him that. But it's setting...
Yeah I'm really concerned Pulido will be a millstone around this club for some time. I've been in his corner a long time, as fans over-hated him...
Couple thoughts about Salloi: Yes, he's been not great this season. I understand giving a highly confidence-based player the armband and the...
Can't believe I'm having to close my eyes and hope for a late winner here.
I don't think it helps that Portland is not a fluid team in possession these days. It doesn't feel great to not get the ball off a team that...
I like that we're winning but this has been a rough half never mind we just scored again
I don't have the game on but this isn't looking good.
Like every Sporting forward since time immemorial, he's clearly saving energy to get back on defense. Okay, that's a bit glib, but I do think the...
I only got to see about the first ten minutes of Afrifa playing. He looked lost on the attack but surprisingly useful on defense. Which explains...
Nobody really knows, but it certainly looks like a case of a dynamic player being stuck behind a much worse player who just happens to be able to...
I'm rooting for a goalless draw and a Messi red card. For no real reason. If it's a really bad call it might help the referee union haha.
Hope not. We lose some real class with Walter out, but our big hit is industry. Memo or even just Hernandez in my opinion.
No kidding. I'll admit, on the field, I'd pretty readily say that Radoja is a visible improvement. He's got the ability to cover more ground and...
Bedoya absolutely clattered him, so I'm not hugely surprised.
Goddammit Luke, be less right so I can argue more. Pulido is definitely not a false 9, but his balance is way off. One of his primary tactical...
Thinking back, I'm pretty happy with the crew I'm usually pretty happy with: Davis, Salloi, Walter, Radoja. Fontas and Rosero did pretty much fine...
Saw that coming miles away.
Hey now, Fontas has possibly the most game experience defending against Messi in the entire league. Not that he did, you know, historically well...
Obviously the Open Cup is far less valuable than MLS Cup (the value of which has never been higher, since the Leagues Cup is siphoning off the...
Way too many things are falling into our favor here. Really would love a win!
Weird thing is historically we start great and decline over the season. Part of me wants to call us lucky to draw. But then the rest of my brain...
Head injuries are the new hamstring pulls, looks like!
Honestly, blaming our huge slump at the beginning of last year on injuries is very lazy and weak. I'm annoyed that's the only way people tend to...
When does the MLSPA release roster figures? It's pretty soon, right? I'm really fascinated to get an up-to-date snapshot of the team. More so than...
