    Yeah, they blow.

    On a completely unrelated topic, I wonder when that vaccine will be available to save the world.;)

    Dude, if it wasn't for scientist we probably wouldn't even have the WORD pandemic, moreless be suffering from one. I 110% blame them even more now.

    Meanwhile, if they can find a way to keep Aronjo healthy and productive, I'll forgive them.

    Honestly, when healthy, this guy HAS to be top three forwards in our pool. I’d put him in over Sargent for now. He is by far the best finisher we have.

    i dont think theres anyone who doubts his ability (especially in terms of options we have), but he makes last-3-years-jozy look like freaking cal ripken jr.

    im certainly not against bringing him in, especially if he could manage to stay fit/productive until our next match, which is supposedly/possibly oct (if we do split windows as berhalter has mentioned).

    I'd hope he's part of the European camp callup with Sargent, Weah, and Novakovich. Guy deserves a good run of form and there's no question he's by far the best finisher we have.

    He turns 30 in November, and he's playing in Sweden, so it is too late. You wouldn't take a guy with the same profile playing for a bottom-third Championship or BL2 side in a league made up of bottom-third and mid-table League 1 or 3 Liga teams. If he was even a year younger, maybe, but not now.

    He's missed the squad for a third of this season and gone 90' only once. Going on a tear and averaging a goal every other game for the rest of the season, with a winter move to the Eredivisie or the Jupiler as a result is a possible scenario. Unfortunately it's not realistic.

    Aron mastered the art of "How not to be seen" on that play. Strikers finish there though. Perfect chip. Kid is a natural finisher. Hope he can stay healthy.

    Scores to restore the lead:



    For some reason, ESPN has only had one camera coverage since half time and are trying to cover the whole pitch with only a camera at one corner. And no replays.

    32 is too old for a world cup? But 31 isnt??? huh

    dempsey mcbride etc were over 31 in world cups werent they?

    plenty of forwards have played great in world cups older than 31

    how about miroslav klose?

    the youth movement is cool and all but the best team should be brought period.

    you forgot that talent counts and we have a WC in 2022. He is in Sweden because he has been injured. He didn't forget how to play.
