Goalies (3): Turner, Horvath, Slonina Defenders (8): Dest, Richards, Ream, A Robinson, Scally, M Robinson, Carter-Vickers, Lund Mids (6): Musah,...
I thought Esmir and Luna looked great. Two young players who could make a mark with the senior team.
The 3-5-2 has enjoyed a renaissance in recent years. Watching Inter Milan and Juventus use it in recent weeks got me thinking about how it would...
I don't mean to suggest anything close to the Lost Generation period (1989 to 1997 birthyears). But consider that the 1997 to 2002 years produced...
We are apparently going to do something smart and use the September, October and November windows to hold camps for both the senior team and...
Dude deserves his own thread.
We now have four (Adams, Musah, McKennie, Reyna) to rotate among three spots in the starting lineup. Four is better than three. At the same time...
I come here to hype Nimfasha. But not overhype. Imo he is our second best attacking prospect after Cavan. While I expect Cavan to end up better...

It is crazy this has not yet happened.
A bigger, better, faster, stronger Yunus Musah. And I love Yunus. Y'all heard it here first. I'm kinda surprised how low-key the reaction has...
The Nations League roster from last summer provides a good starting point to discuss players who have been phased out over the past year. 1)...
Statistics aren't everything given that teams use their fullbacks differently. Still it is interesting to run the numbers on these four players:...
Superannuation is a relative thing in soccer. I leave goalies out of this discussion. But it hasn't been uncommon in the past for the GNats to...
When did various starlets break into the first team. Gio Reyna: First team debut at 17 and 2 months. First start at 17 and 6 months. 18...
