Chandler extends til 2020

 

Was named to a team of the best BL players so far this season:

Jebus, that's quite an honor. I can't see it, but congrats to him.

 

Also made Team of the Week:

Wow, that's awesome. Surprising but awesome.

(on a side note, I didn't read the post and thought for one second this was a starting lineup post for Frankfurt and I was like WTF? I go away for a week and the entire team changed... It was a bit disorienting.)

 

Bundesliga goals of the season so far for each team. Plenty of Yanks on display:

http://www.bundesliga.com/en/news/B...ium=social&utm_term=english&utm_content=tweet

* Bobby Wood at 2:40
* Aron Johannsson assist at 4:15
* Tim Chandler assist at 5:45
* Sandro Sirigu assist at 6:45

And St. Louis's own Vedad Ibišević has a goal at 5:15.

Is unreadable

 

Just need some better resolution on your monitor. Kicker says that no outside backs are "World Class" (not unusual for them, they said the same of the center backs in the league). Three of the outside backs are "International Class". Our man Timmy C is in the next category down, ranked #7 overall in the league after being left off the list entirely (not even making the bench) in the pre-season. Very well done by Timmy C.

 

Sorry about the bad quality. I'll try to post again later.

The callout says: a happy ending for Chandler with his contract extension, who went from being written off to a top performer. He's profited from the 3-man defense and doesn't let opponents get behind him, while displaying tremendous dynamism going forward. (I think)

 

Wait, we have the #7 Bundesliga outside back, the #10 Bundesliga CD and we still didn't win the world cup?! How is that possible (Good for Timmy C, by the way. That's awesome.)

 

Time for the Chandler to Chelski rumors?

 

Starts in friendly against Zenit:

Starts today vs. RB Leipzig

 

Chandler moves and connects well but he has his hands full with Poulsen.

 

Worth noting, Eintracht Frankfurt are a man down after a 3rd min red card.

 

And Leipzig makes it 2-0 on a cross header by Chandler's man.

 

3-0. Rough night for Frankfurt go down 10 immediately. Chandler was gassed not a good one but obviously considering things

 

Starts:

Playing as a right wingback

 

Chandler's been active early. The announcers cant stop talking about him. Won the free kick that led to Frankfurt's first goal. 1-0.

 

Timmy is giving Kolasinac a handful. OT but I feel like Kovac might be the type of coach to do well with the USMNT...

 

Which is great. Kola has had a good half season and been shutting down wingers

 

Kola is a dirty bitch. I am still annoyed from those assaults on Pulisic that the ref Helen Kellered.
