    Did you say any of their match v Chicago that was on ESPN? he might've had the game of his life. they won on pens and i think it was 0-0 in the game itself.

    No, I didn't, I'm guilty of judging from one game here.

    TFC is amazing.

    And they're doing it all with Clint Irwin off the field and Jozy Altidore on the field.

    Great watching in the Champions League! It's cool watching 2 team you've never/rarely seen before going at it hammer and tongs.

    NYC is going to move a game to UConn. Maybe United will move some games to Richmond next season.

    Orlando has suspended its two supporter groups from being allowed group sales for their next three road games, starting with Atlanta.

    "
    The suspension results from the several complaints filed during the July 29 matchup between Atlanta United and Orlando City when three Orlando City fans were arrested. The match ended in a 1-1 draw.

    An Atlanta United spokeswoman told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the team is not involved in the suspension in any way and the disciplinary action was completely up to Orlando City."

    So OCSC did nothing when one of their supporters groups' presidents doxxed a referee, but they do a road ban for a few fans getting arrested? LOL.

    On the bright side, that does mean there won't be an organized group of Orlando supporters at their game at RFK next month.

    The Wanker may be the best of the group of ex-MLSers (Heaps, Vermes, Olsen, Kreis, Curtin) I don't count Beerholder and Vanney because they played most of their football overseas.

    I think Pareja is the best, and Marsch second. Both of them have systems as the foundation, not players, so it's plug and play.

    Forgot about Marsch and Pareja. Not sure about Marsch, he was let go in Montreal after a year and I want to see what happens when BWP and Klejstan leave. He already is suffering from McCarty's departure. He has a system, but I'm not sure if it's the players rather than the system that have carried his team so far.

    I thought that was Ali Curtis' system.

    As long as it ultimately leads to that team's failure, it's a good system :cool:

    Some clarification toggle between 2016 and 2017 seasons
    http://www.nasl.com/team-cumulative-stats
    I've watched some matches and the top teams could easily compete in MLS if you consider what DC does is competing, Some good players and some very accomplished coaches

    I don't think my comment really needed any sort of clarification, so I'm not sure what you're getting at there.

    Miami FC LLC is the Ft Lauderdale Strikers. The owner of the Rowdies loaned the Strikers money which they couldn't pay back. He took over any IP of the Strikers including the Strikers name. The team has continued playing as Miami FC. This is confusing because there is another Miami FC playing in the NDSL.

    I thought the article made it clear that Miami FC and the Fort Lauderdale Strikers were two different teams. Poku has always been on Miami FC after his transfer from NYCFC. But maybe that's just the way I parsed the article.

    No. He refers to the name change in the first paragraph and more explicitly to the change in the 2nd.

    I think Hamid just moved up one position in the GK depth chart for the US Men. Howard played like I move after an 8 hr plane flight and let 2 stoppable balls into the net. Pathetic. Arriola was on the pitch but didn't change the game which was lost by the time he crossed touch. Finally I really admire Keylor Navas's game, wish he was born in Iowa.
