    Just a reminder that if a player needs a thread title change, just tag me, @bungadiri and @dark knight and we’ll get it updated.

    Just saying, one of the unfortunate things I've seen in this space is when many of these Twitter accounts blatantly grab their info from BigSoccer, which is obviously completely fine and even ideal for the community, but then they act like they're the ones putting in the research without giving any love back to the forum.

    Now this doesn't apply to many, though for those that it does... man does that leave a sour taste considering the amazing passion put forth by users here.

    Sometimes even noting a small "saw this on BigSoccer" or similar thing could help grow this tremendously valuable place further, and that would be a healthy thing as a whole.

    Undoubtedly. There are degrees of this, obviously, but -- do better, people. Even if all you have to add to a conversation is gratitude, a little goes a long way.

    Trying to think who's going to be in Champions League this autumn among Yanks abroad. Pulisic, Dest, Reyna, McKennie, Chandler, Carter-Vickers, and Otasowie all qualified. Not as many as last season (10), but better than I thought after losing Adams, Aaronson, Weah, Brooks, and Steffen.

    Probably Carter-Vickers has got the best chance to start among this group. Pulisic and Dest would need to push their performances to get ahead of their competitors. Otasowie, well we'll get a clue in coming weeks if he can earn some significant playing time in league games then it might be worth checking in on his games.

    Sands, Tillman, Ledezma, and Wingo are in the 3rd round of qualifiers. Sands, Tillman would meet Ledezma in playoff round if both their clubs advance. So still a chance to add one, two , or three players. Sands and Tillman have better chances of playing, so I'd root for Rangers.

    We promote threads. Everyone likes that. But can we please start relegating threads? I don’t want the first page of the forum dominated by threads of guys that got a game or two in a top league a decade ago but are now playing in the third division somewhere. Bless those one or two posters that keep those threads alive, but surely they should be relegated back out of the main forum. Right?

    The death of Queen Elizabeth II is set to throw UK fixtures into turmoil as they enter a period of mourning.

    https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/death-queen-sparks-spfl-uefa-27944112

    As it stands SPFL fixtures will go ahead this weekend. However, plans are in place to postponed Scottish Premiership, Championship, League One and League Two games once funeral arrangements are announced.

    https://www.express.co.uk/sport/foo...-League-postponements-Queen-Elizabeth-II-dies

    https://www.nationalworld.com/sport...es-premier-league-efl-health-concerns-3836390

    [The EFL] statement read: “As a mark of respect, following the passing of Her Majesty, The Queen Elizabeth II earlier today, the EFL has confirmed that its fixtures scheduled for tomorrow evening (Friday 9 September) – Burnley v Norwich City and Tranmere Rovers v Stockport County - have been postponed.

    “A determination regarding the remainder of this weekend’s scheduled fixtures will be made following a review of the official mourning guidance, in addition to further consultation with DCMS and other sports on Friday morning.”



    It looks like EFL fixtures will be postponed this weekend though SPL will continue their schedule for now with future postponements likely.

    This is rather vaguely connected to YA but felt amusing enough to be worth noting: Lukas Podolski is apparently now co-hosting a German radio show with an American-born, German-based media personality named Reece Moore.

    An interesting situation with a team of American youth players being in residency at Schalke that could lead to a little confusion:

    After the successful premiere season 2021/2022, the partnership with the International Soccer Academy (ISA) and the Knappenschmiede will enter the next round in the 2022/2023 season!

    From August 2022 to May 2023, an American U18 team will be guests at the Knappenschmiede. This team includes 18 US talents who were selected in advance by the ISA and the scouts of the Knappenschmiede in the USA. The players between the ages of 16 and 18 stay in Germany for one season and train under professional conditions on the Schalke club premises.


    https://schalke04.de/knappenschmiede/mannschaften/u18-integrated-academy-team/

    The roster:

    Faidy Elkhouri, Alex Muzyka, Owen Tuttle, Patryk Brulinski, Connor Louden, Quinlan McKinney, Daxton Andrus, Roscoe Rubinstein, Demetri Xidias, Justin Dorner, Samuel Hunsaker, Colin McGinnity, Jalen Guadalupe, Noah Gillinder, Michael Divano, Miles Mukherjea-Gehrig, Orlando Polendo, Baeden Marott, Anderson Agudelo, Davis Scharfeld

    Orange County SC announced a partnership with Feyenoord:

    https://www.orangecountysoccer.com/...ty-sc-partners-with-european-giant-feyenoord/

    Orange County Soccer Club has agreed a long-term partnership with Dutch Eredivisie giants Feyenoord, which lays out a collaborative and mutually beneficial approach to player loans, development and talent identification—adding value and impacting growth for both teams.

    Not sure that it will be that easy to send over players for loans considering the high salary requirements for non-EU/EEA players for the Eredivisie, but we shall see.

  23. Te Kloese mentions in Feyenoord Magazine a player of under 18 yo, who first will go into development at Orange County and then will be on his way to us.
    Got no clue who he's talking about.

    There's a 2nd division club in Colombia that aggressively scouting the US market for young players:



    A quick glance at their roster on TM doesn't show any Yanks at present.
