Just had a read through of the MLS competitive format on WIkipedia and it’s basically everything Cubo is saying. Choosing an “unbalanced(literal word used in the article” schedule from late February to early December. Not going with a fall to spring season because they’d have to compete with the other sports in America and running through the summer while international tournaments are in progress. What if they tried a fall to spring season? Surely the cream rises to the top and there’s room for all sports to get a piece of the pie? @Kanji when you had Orlando season tickets, did you also have NFL season tickets or NBA season tickets? I think there’s a gap in the market, they just need to bite the bullet and give it a try.

What a header. That is power right there.

‘Premier League Mornings’. The Premier League has made name for itself in America. The only time people are interested in the MLS are pre season games for European teams in the summer months.

If this is true, I don’t know of anyone on this board who follows an MLS team. I don’t even know who won the MLS title last year.

Been living in the US for 20+ years and I still don't know how the MLS works. I think it's like the NBA with an Eastern and Western conference and a playoff at the end. But as far as cups, the days the games are played on, I have no idea. It's never been drilled into your head like the Premier League. You know the times, the days, Tuesday, Wednesday - Champions League, etc. MLS has done a terrible job branding itself. It's just a mess. Games go on during international tournaments and friendlies, friendlies with established European teams are prioritized over competitive league matches. MLS isn't something you can follow along with European football. You'd have to give up European football and dedicate yourself to the MLS solely to fully understand it. I don't know when the season starts or ends or anything. Messi can come, Beckham can come, it doesn't matter, they'll just end up on highlight reels.

There should be some sort of monetary compensation on the PGMOL's behalf.

Guarantee the FA come out this week saying they made a mistake for that pen. Guarantee. Pack of cunts.

Fuck off Man Utd you fucking cunts

Yea meant in the 70 mins he was on.

Mount anonymous.

Lemina and Cunha have been brilliant. Still mad Lemina went to Nice over us.

Sancho worked well as a false 9 for them in pre season. Would probably be the better way forward for Man U going forward. Garnacho was shit LW.

Happy for Wan Bissaka because I can see him getting the Maguire treatment in the future.

Wan Bissaka will do everything to avoid crossing the ball.

Casemiro looks way off it.

That looked more a pen than all the other ones given this weekend.

yup if they scored that, it wouldn’t be deserved whatsoever.

listening to some Man U youtubers and they said ETH knows he can’t play that Ajax brand of football so is trying to make Man U into a standard Premier League(pace and power) type of team.

Wolves should be winning this.

Man U look just as unbalanced as they have for the last ten years.

I know it’s been one game week but I think we can finish second.

Antony cuts in every time. Doesn’t want to take a man on at all.

I don’t want to hear the term “stanky leg” during football punditry tbf.

Man U haven’t played yet but though we looked the most impressive this weekend. Title challenge?
