Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I have to agree with Cubaricho on this. LA has a larger Latino population and is culturally much more of a "soccer city" than New York. LA doesn't even have an American Football team... NYC has two. LA has had plenty of NFL teams, they just keep moving away. Agree that it'd make sense due to the Latino population, though I guess you'd want to believe the Italian Pop of NYC would be interested.

nobby_solano Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 well either that or 'the new york celtics' for all the irish-american types in NY might do alright Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandamninator Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 well either that or 'the new york celtics' for all the irish-american types in NY might do alright Yeah, naming a team after the Basketball team from the city of New Yorks blood rival in all sports probably won't win over your average Knicks and Yankees fan.

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Pre-Match 'trailer' was fucking awesome. Was like some sort of Movie/Wrestling promo. Jon Busch makes me laugh to, its like people don't realise he's 5'8" or something and keep shooting low. HARD AND HIGH INTO THE CORNERS! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 to be honest I only started to appreciate just how good Beckham is towards the end of his career. I use to think he was overrated when he was at Man U. I now know he wasn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 This league is crying out for a clinical striker. So many players are good technically but can't score to save their lives. I also expected more from the N'kufo Montero partnership, the latter looks really poor whenever I've seen him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also expected more from the N'kufo Montero partnership, the latter looks really poor whenever I've seen him. That problem has plagued the US in general forever. The MLS reflects this oddly, even with the influx of imports. It is a league (and country) of goalkeepers and midfielders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 It's not really just a finisher either the movement of a striker, too many of Beckham's crosses fizz across because his attackers don't make the moves, an LA side with N'kufo would be lethal. On another note Gonzalez looks like he has potential, good size on him just needs some training, a Dutch or Belgian club could do him wonders. As for Seattle, they need a defensive leader, a captain at the back to organize and lead them and then someone in the middle with some craft or creativity, Elano springs to mind that player that doesn't have a position he just drifts towards the ball. Do they play 4-3-3? I think that's what they are trying the problem is the top 3 is either inverted triangle meaning N'kufo is useless or Montero and Zakuani get too far ahead, they should be looking to play one two's in and around the box with him to exploit the space in behind a deep LA defence.

Kaizero Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 A lot of Sounders fans creating an atmosphere with singing back and forth between them and the Angel City Brigade/Riot Squad. Not often you see that (away fans) in an MLS match, respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
