Watching the USA-Iceland friendly....can anyone tell me what Gyasi Zardes does well? I'm not a frequent viewer of MLS and he has yet to impress me in a USA jersey. Seems to just consistently give the ball away.
Probably doesn't help overall that I am incredibly negative when it comes to the Fire ownership. Granted, Nelson just started there along with Pauno. But there is little in the last 4 years to make a Fire fan feel like the ones in charge know what they're doing.
Agreed with everything from WarriorInNYCI am 100% #HauptmanOut. Having said that, Nelson has earned my patience. He clearly has an overall plan and is being diligent and thorough. I thought Pauno was a good hire and think he'll be a good fit with a young roster. I have #cf97 optimism, even while expecting a rough year with all the youth.
Well, the european transfer window is now closed. And, SHOCKER, the Fire did basically nothin. Does this roster excite anyone? http://www.chicago-fire.com/post/2016/02/01/chicago-fire-weekly-update-february-1Yuck.
Anyone going to Copa America this year? Kinda wish that Colombia played at soldier field. But seeing Argentina may be a nice consolation prize if Messi is playing.
This seems like as good a place as any to ask...Has anyone ever bought tickets for an EPL match? I'm going to be in London in a few weeks, and Chelsea and Arsenal are both playing at home while I'm there, so I've been looking into getting tickets. It basically seems impossible with both places sold-out from season-ticket holders and membership clubs. The secondary market doesn't look too promising either, with horror stories about online scalpers not following through, or paying to borrow credit-card-style swipe tickets that need to be returned after used. I'd prefer to catch Chelsea since I'm staying closer to Stamford Bridge.
West Ham is at Leicester CityIt's April 16, so it looks like my options at Man City at Chelsea, or Crystal Palace at Arsenal.
What section for AO...sucks they are doing non-GA, but i guess i can stay at the bar a bit longer.Sec. 121 for me
I haven't been a huge Klinnsman fan, but didn't really want him fired either. And I understand he has done quite a lot to help further US Soccer, and I am very grateful for that. But I'm officially done with his lineup choices and tactics.On Friday, he played a RB at CB, so he could play a DM at RB, so he could play a RB at RM, so he could play a CAM at CDM, so he could play a deep lying playmaker at CAM.This isn't the old USMNT, there is quality talent at every position, yet he continues to try and think he's smarter and play guys out of position.I also really do not understand his love affair for Zardes.
