It all depends upon circumstance. Brooks has been earning good money for a while now. Unless he has been bad with his finances, he could afford to...
Yes, but that is what we do...that is who we are. I have done it, and I am not alone.... A player that hasn't done anything, scores a brace and...
who says they aren't? so far the only voices weighing in are fans. I don't think Berhalter has shown his hand....
personally, I think the strikers, goalies and midfield (I consider wingers mid field) are the 3 areas where it is impossible to say, at this...
Which, of course anyone can play. I’m fact that will be my position as well. I know this to be true because Gregg has already spoken with me and...
I hope you are right! I don't think many will agree with you but Aaronson has done a great job at exceeding expectations. Based on his...
Wasn’t trying to imply you said he never had a bad game. Sorry if it came out that way. Was just commenting on what I think is an obvious fact. I...
All players have there bad games so I won’t argue that Roldan has never had a bad game. I think Roldan is a very good player but I think he has...
move always hated callups that only have the purpose of cap tying, but IF it was partly to show appreciation AND it was communicated that he was...
While not quite the exact same thing, I believe the greatest issue with our strikers was consistency....especially consistency of finishing. The...
The one thing that stands out to me about the forward situation is the complete uncertainty. I am probably more optimistic than many, but my...
In the little I’ve seen him, he makes me think of Ching. not committed to leaving anyone home at this point. Too many question marks and no clear...
Very true. One other thing is that all are young….very young. all bets are off because anything could happen.
I also am a firm believer that regular playing time is FAR more important than whether or not a young player starts. I believe that a young player...
I would think that one reason teams are reluctant to get rid of vets to make room for promising youth is the temporary nature of their stay in...
I really don’t know, but I’ll take a stab at a guess. Of that group, I would say Ferreira and Mihailovic were probably the two that most would say...
I see your point but disagree. I definitely expect the level of foreign talent that is willing to choose MLS over Europe will increase but I also...
thats why the second level pro is so important. They are key to improving the overall quality of the league and making it more attractive relative...
I wonder what the percentages are for the top 1/3 of the first 11 compared to the bottom 2/3 (or go by quartiles) for example >Q3 minutes: w%...
For Americans to begin dominating MLS we need more than just Americans capable of dominating in MLS. We need capable players that prefer MLS to...
Just a quick comment on a possible explanation for most of our dual national players being somewhat one dimensional: Guys that have both...
Here's a tough (imo) thought exercise: the take first group of players (the best over a period of 15-20ish years of our soccer history) and put...
a secondary, but equally important question in my mind is how much better than the "average" are todays elite? There was a very large gap in...
Makes sense to me. The only thing that I would like to point out and caution (not necessarily for you, but anyone that might see cause and...
I agree that GK is the most likely position to break 30. The wc is usually in June, right? Unless I am counting wrong, anyone born after June 1996...
