    NEII ain't good. One of the worst teams in the Eastern Conference.
    Cavan will have better tests in MLSNP. I wouldn't say he won't learn anything from this level.

    [There's only one MLS team worse than NE in the East. Atlanta. That's become a very underwhelming club.]

    The best team in MLSNP according to PPG is North Texas.
    A North Texas versus Philly II MLSNP playoff game would be fun.
    [We're not going to see it with the first teams. :)]

    Yeah I missed this game but I definitely have seen Cavan challenged in some of these games.

    Well. It seems either he isn't good enough to play against the better teams or isn't challenged against the lesser teams. Either way he should be demoted to the U15s.

    Kinda a weird thing to talk about but the situation Cavan was born into is probably as good as it gets to become a professional soccer player

    Olney's left footed soft pass into space for the assist is top notch, he also deserved an assist on a great cross that initially looked like a Westfield header but was a McIntosh OG. I still don't know why but Olney is a top prospect and gets little attention. Decision making has improved to a top level, top athlete along with technique on demand on almost every touch. Uses both feet well.

    Playing right now. Next Pro. Scored Philly’s 2nd goal. Up 3-1 with about 10 minutes left.

    Impressive how he orchestrates the whole sequence by telling his teammate where to go.

    Kinda obvious Cavan will be better than Lamine Yamal.

    Messi may have bathed the infant Yamal.

    But I started the Sullivan thread. That gives him a decisive leg up.

    so Cavan is pronounced like Gavin, but C instead of G?

    Yes, but also, when you hear an Irishman say it, in my experience they tend to say it faster, so it sounds a whole lot more like Kevin. But not quite.

    Not sure how the Sullivans pronounce it.

    The super bright analysts at Apple must have decided MLSNP isn’t worth the extra storage space needed.

    I would preliminarily clear your schedules for Wednesday, if you want to see the historic moment that is upcoming. That's the rumor I've heard from multiple people. A debut and potentially a start.

    Not completely sure, but I don't think he's going to play today against Toronto FC.
