Official: Union Alumni, Where Are They Now?

It's more of a game then a sport though really.

 

Our finishing rate, for example.

 

Crappy Google translation of an article about Nogueira facing his old team in France. There is stuff at the end about his thoughts on life in the US. Nothing bad to say about his time here...mostly what you what expect from a puff piece.

Wasn't sure where to put this, as Alecko never played for the Union but he was part of the early days of the franchise. This article is very good, and well worth the read: http://www.theplayerstribune.com/alecko-eskandarian-soccer-concussions/

Quite eye opening.

 

I like the part where Piotr cries about how hard he was hit and then puts him back in training right away.

 

Aristeguieta sighting - Nantes vs. PSG. I'd take him back if we can get him for the right price.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAH Dear god

 

Probably fewer injuries too.

 

Jesus, I didn't say I wanted to have his babies! I mean I do but...

 

Would love to see Nando and Ilsinho in a head to head 5o yard dash. That's an afternoon of quality viewing right there.

 

Does Talen have a sun dial? Not sure how else we'd time this.

 

Did anyone see that Maurice Edu twitter post with a video of some guy racing Cole Missimo?

 

I would too in a second. He was awesome in preseason and we just never saw him do anything for that dumpster fire of a team. But give him some decent midfielders and I bet we see that quality return. I was really impressed with his precision and ball control in tight spaces. He's like a ten year younger Conor Casey.

I know, bad memories and all but the guy is good and if we could get him for under 250 it would be an excellent buy.

 

Going towards the goal or returning from an offsides position? Not sure, but think corn grows faster than the latter.

 

With a calendar....

 

I'd love to have a couple guys from my O35 team in that race. I could be like Eisen running the 40 at the combine. Nando and Ilsinho being Eisen.

 

Carlos Valdes has now been without a team for over a year now. Surprised he hasn't hooked up with Nowak in Gdansk...

 

Even more surprised there hasn't a Union return rumor yet.

 

Has he been injured or something?

 

Valdes plays for the Argentine 2nd division team Atletico Palermo in Bs. As. At least he is in a nice neighborhood. eff him.

Or maybe not but the coach of Santa fee didn't care for him.

I laughed at this.
