I've seen Orlando try more in 45 minutes than I've seen NUFC try in three years. Let's be honest the quality has been dreadful. Yet two or three of those guys would go straight into our (NUFC) lineup. MLS is godawful, but the little move before the Kaka shot was more than we've done since Cabaye left. The diving has been inspiring. Told my brother this is it, it's the league to follow. Done with European football, done with all these clubs just buying success. I mean if Brek Shea can get into a football team it means something is seriously right with the system "Done with all those clubs just buying success", says the man who wants to support Kaka and Orlando . This is a joke, right? We built this franchise from nothing. I was going when we only had eight thousand people a match. We just had sixty-two thousand. NYCFC appeared over night and were granted a franchise because of Saudi oil money.

I haven't been this excited about something soccer related in a really really long time. I can't believe I'm not in Orlando right now. The city must be fucking buzzing.

Really excited for tomorrow. I may wake up early and go buy myself an Orlando City kit at Dicks. I have never paid full price for a kit before but this might be worth it.

Who else plays tonight?

Makes me wish I had cable! Tomorrow should be a nice day down at the pub though watching the Orlando City match.

Season starts tonight?

You know this is happening, unfortunately.

Can I also state that I love that Orlando is sponsored by a local company? It's not a great company in Orlando but at least it's local and not a huge, nasty sponsorship on the front of the kit.

Just officially announced. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/orlando-city-lions/on-the-pitch/os-mls-players-avoid-strike-orlando-city-20150304-post.html

Doesn't say anything wrong there.

I know the Orlando City dudes are in squeaky bum time about it. 60k tickets sold for the opening match and it may not happen. Daunting.

Wish I were going to be there.

Ethi is almost at the point of where you could say "You couldn't make it up" but it's still clearly on the side of made up. Almost, dude.

Play his role decently. How can a striker going 90 mins without a serious effort on goal be a decent performance? Because his role today was to make a nuisance of himself and create space for Cisse, which he did.

Play his role decently.

The stuff about Jonas.

Really important three points today but damn if we didn't make hard work of that.

only in fucking america... 'boy i hope we'll still be able to play soccer in all this rain' They played in the rain until it started lightning close by, to be fair. A huge bolt struck by the field and they called it off.

No one there because it's downpouring, of course. "We're going to try and get this match in" is never a great way to start a broadcast.

Those are fucking great. Killer sponsor too.

Y'all will be Orlando City fans now, right?

There had been talk of him getting a call-up for the U.S. a few years ago. Died off when he stopped playing regularly for Middlesbrough. Probably over here to try and get a look in to the USMNT. English accent and American citizenship will almost seal it for him if he can play well.
