Agreed. I think it’s hard because MLS isn’t just the only soccer game in town, if you know what I mean. MLB can change rules with impunity because there is no competition and it doesn’t have to adhere to rules made half a world away. Like if they think bringing back halfway/dribbling PKs makes the game better, they just end up looking like a total joke league because the product is way better elsewhere. MLB doesn’t have that problem. Also kudos to MLB this season. Attendance is up 10% and the highest it’s been in over 25 years. Wild stuff, and the game/product is so much more entertaining to watch now (the most important thing).

That thing could take a hit from Tyson.

A huge problem is they play in the summer (to not compete with the NFL) when everyone has about 1000 other things to do and if they want to watch sport they go to a baseball game. Even just using where I live as an example; during the summer months, every weekend it’s a ghost town around the city, everyone is up in the mountains or on vacation somewhere. With the new rules at baseball games, the MLB games are a far more attractive proposition. MLS needs to take a look at the product and make some serious changes to keep up or they’ll fall behind. (not that I trust them to come to the right conclusions)

I agree with this but I also broadly agree with Astro’s points.

Pep playing Eddie’s system here

That’s not how that would end.

Already did, didn’t they?

Feeling like the move baby

Lets just get him here.

Agreed

Feeling likely the same.

You’d imagine the new stadium will have every available bell and whistle.

We can easily do these. Especially this early in the season.

That’s the spirit.

Can confirm Kanji is a handsome motherfucker.

Literally never.

I also want to be very clear that I hate what they, and Man U and Liverpool, are doing but it will make our eventual success soooooo much sweeter. Fuck ‘em.

~5.5 times as much as us. As much as it sucks, they’ll be good.

They’ve sold like £300-400m haven’t they? They’re fine for a long long time.

Where is he even at now?!

This, unfortunately.

A professional referee looked at that and thought nah.

God I hate Man U.

Bro anywhere but straight at the keeper.

Refreshing to see dudes not go down immediately when touched.
