  2. Colorado v Portland is going to be a fun match. Kinda crazy that scheduled it to go H2H against the big NFL thanksgiving game.

    We really need 7-9 points out of this window with the final set of games including away to Mexico and Costa Rica where we have no wins and one draw total in all WCQ.

    Going to be so damn cold in all of these games.

    At first I thought this was head to head with the annual Lions thrashing and chuckled.

    At the risk of asking a stupid question as someone who hasn't watched MLS with any regularity in about two seasons, is there any reason Michael Bradley isn't getting looked at during these WCQ as a very experienced back-up to our three incredibly young midfielder trio? I know he's 34, but surely he's as valid an option as Acosta, Roldan, Yueill, or Busio if he's near form. He's only a year or so older than Beckerman was at 2014.

    Also, it keeps getting funnier and funnier to me that Canada and the US keep forcing all these Central American nations to go play in the most abysmally cold weather. It's not a bad strategy, but it's definitely funny.

    Assuming our final home game against Panama will be in Denver to help with the altitude post-Mexico City trip.

    It’s wild how he’s been all #wekickcorona and then just not interested in actually kicking corona

    Wild lineup with all the injuries we have. Zinny in midfield is going to be weird to see.
     
  15. Curious if they’ll lineup as a 4231 with him as the LAM/LW. He’s one of my favorite non-Spurs players so that’ll be fun to watch.

    That is actually a good shout for formation. That would make sense, could also see it being a 4-3-3 and let him drift out wide a bit.

    It’s in fucking sane how many bookable fouls City get away with every single game.

    PSG’s midfield is dirt poor.
     
  19. Leipzig giving Brugge a beat down today which is wonderful. I need Brugge out of euro comps if it’ll help Spurs sign De Ketelaere lol
     
  20. CBS Sports app just went in the shitter and I can no longer watch any of the matches. Wonderful.

    I apologise in advance to @Garrett


    Messi is disgraceful out there tonight. Strolling around, walking away from City players when they have the ball. Just ignoring everything defensively.

    That's what we deserve not finishing any of the chances we created in the first half.
