PBP: 2024 MLS Season PBP Thread Week 25 September 18 - 22 {R}

I'll have to check that out. In real time it sure looked weak.

 

United resumed not defending in the box.

 

DC is toast...for this game, anyway.

 

Eight DC players in the box, none of them actually doing anything to defend beyond taking up space.

 

Blake down again.

 

It's happening.

 

doop x 4

Philly 4-0 DC

 

I wouldn't have guessed a comb as a result in this match.

 

Why didn’t Rodriguez start?

 

The other Sullivan is going to come in.

 

Philly's goal differential means it basically has a de facto 4 point lead over most of the chasing pack (Montreal excluded). They'll need it given they finish the season with the two Ohio teams.

 

and the sub didn't go off quick enough so he has to wait a minute...

 

...and Union delayed play enough for Sullivan to come in.

 

You know your team is shit when they put the charity sub in against you.

 

He almost got a goal as well.

 

and another shitty week of MLS comes to an end with a blowout comb.

 

Freddy Adu got a half hour in his first game and managed 5 goals & MLS Cup his first season.

 

Freddy's career was run by his agent and The Don.
Cavan's is being run by Jim Curtin and Man City's academy.

Which reminds me, when Notts County were relegated to the National League we were obliged to release all of our academy players.

I wonder if that would happen to Manchester City.

 

Well, he might have been the youngest to do it, but he didn’t do it very well or often.

Thx,

Jay!
