    MLS

    I'm still convinced Okugo was the guy, but Kanji may be right after all. One of the two CMs couldn't do anything right though. cmon dude, between me, everyone who watched the game not named you and SI. You still not convinced? You think Cabella is tall too? I'm surprised to even see to Orlando City players in there I mean seriously, is that the level? I though Orlando were still trying to gel. If that is XI of the Week material I'm f***ed. f*** sakes Kanji what have I gotten myself into? Already scheduled to watch the next game on tv. I didn't see the game, but my blind answer is a resounding yes. There are very few teams in the MLS capable of successfully passing the ball more than 3 times without giving it away. There is a lot of effort but very little team quality, just a few good players who every so often make something magic happen (where have I heard that before...). Although I imagine NYCFC & Orlando have an excuse given it was their first game. Which team plays the best football in the MLS? Seattle, Portland, SKC, LA. It fluctuates. New England played some decent football last season. Also, we need to end this "the MLS." It's just "MLS." Just as we don't say "the MLB." It's a pet hate and perhaps a YANK thing, but that's just how it is. This was mentioned on the Guardian podcast last week. Massive effort to change in my head since I think refer to every other league with 'the' apart from 'la' liga. I've been saying 'the NFL' too, is that wrong like too? Nah, it's "the" NFL, NBA, and NHL. It just doesn't make sense to say "the Major League Soccer," which comes out as "the Soccer." As opposed to "the National Football League" (the League) or "the National Basketball Association" (the Association). It's really incredibly pedantic, but drives me nuts. It's not pedantic, it's proper use of "the". The issue is that "MLS" is a shit name for a league, so they can get fucked and deal with the improper grammar. Name your league with "league" on the end and we have no issue.

    Well, the MLS is shit, and he's Kaka, and it was his debut for a brand new MLS team, and he scored.
  5. Rugby_01 has a certain ring to it
  6. They've properly broke you huh Ian? Well it's quite hard to bother discussing things happening at Newcastle as if they were a competing sporting club. Sometimes I manage but then I remember it's all pointless. At the moment I'm still watching most of the games, just not reacting very much to what happens. Not sure about next season though, might be time to become one of those detestable people who just follows the odd bit of football.

  8. Top quality? Come on. There's not a lot to choose between him, Haidara and Dummett. Santon was given a lot of chances, but didn't make the sort of improvements that you'd want to see in a young player. RYAN TAYLOR STARTED FOR US AGAINST MANCHESTER UNITED.

    Didn't see the game, but Okugo is a solid DM for MLS. Not going to blow anyone away with his passing range, but he'll do his job quietly and efficiently. Like a shit Claude Makelele.

  17. don't be fucking with magic, mojo
  18. I'd imagine you're unindated with offers. Glorious opportunity to watch what is essentially the Club we all love. I'm away down to Welling to watch North Shields v Erith and Belvedere in FA Vase Quarters. 25 will likely secure both seats. Add 50 more and Man U can be secured also. You're paying the poor sap that takes them off you, right? That's not how it works is it? Offering two seats for what is effectively the price of one. If you've gave up on 'your' Club then fair do's to you but not everyone has so many yaos
  19. Oh yeah. Totally didn't know about that. Completely unrelated that I'll be back in town for this one.
