Real Salt Lake fire their head coach Jeff Cassar only 3 games into the season. Is Dom next? Or will it be Curt Onalfo?
Apparently, being a charter member of the lucky sperm club works as well in sports as other endeavors...
How the Germans view Schweinsteiger's move to MLS MLS Moves: Fire bets big on Schweinsteiger Next move for Real Salt Lake is the most crucial in a decade Jamie Vardy got death threats over Ranieri sacking Ozil to miss Germany friendly against England MLS games compare well with EPL but referees in both leagues reluctant to call PKs Phil Jones pulls out of England squad
To add another issue, there are still a number of artificial turf fields in MLS. Players used to playing on pristine grass fields are in for a major adjustment. It also raises the risk of injury. European players do train on those fields from time to time, but it's different playing a full speed competitive game.

Cyberspace war!!! Oh please! I can't recall the name of the Democratic congressman the other day who stated and tried to compare these Russian cyberspace attacks are acts of war. My relatives , parents in Italy, France , Germany and Africa, lived through WW 2 and my grandparents through two world wars. They all overcame, hunger, persecution, poverty , hatred , violent crimes , arrests , prison and concentration camps, facing death at every hour of the day. They also faced firing squads and these guys are comparing computer hacking to a war? Give me a break!
I know you were and I wasn't disagreeing with you. My point wasn't directed towards you but rather how the democrat congressman tried to compare the cyberspace wars with Russian hacking to an actual act of war and I was just pointing out how ludicrous that was.
Only to a point - if you study your history, you will understand that a major factor in the dissolution of the Soviet Empire was the unsustainable level of military spending the USSR had to do to 'keep up.' I think that Putin and his cronies learned that lesson well. So well that they are attempting to covertly disrupt the US economy by any means necessary, hoping (with no small chance of success) that the US empire will crumble from within...
All it takes is a single cyber-attack by a foreign power and no one will ever be able to get tickets to a soccer game anymore.
Unless they put on a bomb in a computer and leave it in a soccer stadium, I'm certainly not afraid of a little hacking. My Mother, (who by the way became an American citizen today) is certainly not afraid of a little hacking. She still however, has nightmares of the Germans breaking into her home, violently abusing , robbing and pillaging her family though...
If the Russians used or hacked a web site in order to execute their cyberattacks maybe what he really meant is that it is an act of .WAR. (Little joke for the geeks in the house).
Just curious (and bringing it back to the the the thread more or less) if there was a Trump campaign Russian collusion , what do we rename the LAndy/AEG to LA transaction? How about LAndylusion?
LOL. Rule of thumb: an alleged conspiracy is only news when your partisan political adversaries are involved.
Back to soccer....Minnesota Unaldulterated Fail Club needs to just stop, cancel the season, fire everyone including front office and ownership, and rebid for MLS expansion acceptance.
Look at the bright side, they have brought more scoring into the league, and the Quakes are pretty much guaranteed not to win the Wooden Spoon.
