Then they were Unkeled again. Playing 9 vs 11 for 28 minutes without allowing a goal shows it can be done, if not by the Crew.
The referees on the Referee forum all agree that both red cards were correct. Apparently there is another angle showing Ramos's studs went to the opponents knee. The second red was obvious.
Beckham finally got his land in Miami. http://www.espnfc.com/major-league-...-gets-land-deal-to-build-mls-stadium-in-miami
I'm glad. Hes been trying forever down there. I could care less if there's a Miami team but I'm glad the back and forth crap is done with. It'll be interesting to see who all Beckham lures to MLS. I bet Ronaldo will play for him in Miami.
Don't know enough about Miami, but it would seem like a good location, generically. But no on-site parking? Really?
European thinking, I'd guess. Not sure that's a good idea, myself. But Beckham can afford to lose the money.

Turns out Guardado isn't going to LAFC. He just signed officially with Real Betis. With Chicharito demanding over $10 million a season and that option looking dead, and lozano gearing up for a move to PSV, i wonder which mexican international LAFC will look at next. I think it will be Vela. He's in the last year of his deal at Real Sociedad and it looks like he'll leave on a free transfer next summer.
No Crew players were named to the All-Star Game roster. The fans were even given a chance to vote. (You'd think the FO would be pushing the vote at the stadium. I remember the old punch cards for previous ASGs. Maybe I missed the promotional push.) https://www.massivereport.com/2017/...d-from-the-mls-all-star-game-real-madrid-2017
Meram is the only one who deserves to be in the All Star game. No one else really even deserves mention. Okay, maybe Artur deserves mention/consideration, but not to be in it.
I feel bad for the guys who didn't make it only because I'm sure they would be compensated for their appearance. But other than that, they cant get hurt and will be rested.
Is it still in the union agreement that enough players get named to the all star team to field two teams (as if it was West vs East) for that reason (so more players receive bonuses)?
The Iraqis have taken over the MLS facebook page and are saying that it is racist that Justin Meram isn't on the all-star team.
Sadly, it's not racism as much as a bias against small market clubs who are stinking up the place. In order for Crew players to get selected we have to be making noise in the table.
Make it team, what, 10 or 11 in 10 years for Kei, he's publicly talking about wanting a trade. https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2017...ns-kei-kamara-cant-get-past-production-issues “If I’m not scoring goals, I feel like I’m not helping the team out,” Kamara said. “[Tonight] I got a goal, but it’s real difficult if I can’t produce for this team because it’s a good team. Maybe I wasn’t the right piece of the puzzle to help the team move forward. I’m coming in every day and being a professional. If I end up staying here moving forward, no problem. I’m going to give it my all. Then again, it’s a business. If something else comes out of it, it’s what’s good for the club and good for the fans.”
