I know it's a bit of coach-speak, but it's crazy how calm Poch is regarding his squad and not needing to spend big on new players. I feel the same way, it's difficult to upgrade anywhere in our starting XI. But seeing everyone else bring in big names obviously makes me nervous.

I still think we'll buy another RB, CB, and possibly an attacking player (striker or mid).

 

Jamaica-Mexico less than ten minutes from penalties to face us in the final if you're not watching and awake

 

Jamaica scored in the 87!

 

dammit I didn't switch it over quick enough

 

Kemar the GOAT

 

Corona gets a hand on that no problem of he dives for that, or is at least positioned correctly to begin with.

 

This is a long shot, but... does anyone plan on being at the Gold Cup final on Wednesday? I just had a friend back out, so now there's a good chance I'll be making the trip up from LA on my own. It would be great to find someone to meet up with if I'm not able to find someone to take the extra ticket and go with me.

About me real quick...
Things I like: footie, Arsenal, America, tattoos, beer, road trips, and being nice to people.
Things I don't like: being stuck going to games by myself.

EDIT: Found someone :) Still more than happy to meet up with someone for a tailgate though.

 

Mbappe to Madrid for 180m is on Twitter from someone who covers La Liga I trust to not jump the gun.

 

American Outlaws doing the good work. Once the US made the final, concacaf increased ticket prices (citing a "pricing model") by $40 to $120. Mexico also would've triggered this "model." AO called them out on it and at least got their members a lower price.

What a shitty (capitalistically understandable) practice. But totally not surprising for concacaf.

 

Ridiculous sum of money as expected, but my god what a team Real is building. Asensio, Ceballos, Theo, Vazquez, Vallejo plus Isco, Varane, Carvajal and Casemiro all 25 and under. Lol then add Mbappe to that (and De Gea )

 

Highly doubt they sign De Gea. Not even Perez is mad enough to spend the money required on a keeper.

 

Still holding onto that pipe dream hope that isco leaves Madrid on a free next summer to be Iniesta's replacement. Don't recall if his rumored contract extension with Madrid went through or not.

 

Orlando just spent $1.6m in Garberbucks for Dom Dwyer. lol

 

Remember Leroy Sané's tattoo of the time he scored a tap in against Monaco in a tie City lost? Well he got the City crest covered up on it.

 

Kovacic to Spurs rumors won't die. I don't really know much about him though. I just want some depth added to the team.

 

Fuck off, is that true? That's the worst thing I've ever seen.

 

I'll never get why people get tattoos of themself, just buy a mirror.

 

Pretty well done though.

 

Is it though? Guy with the ball in his hand looks like a kids drawing

 

Levy says they haven't found a player they want to buy who they cannot afford.

Ok....so what are you waiting for?

 

Levy's probably worried after his last few purchases haven't been so great (jannsen immediately comes to mind).

 

I actually feel good about Jannsen heading into the season. He was improving late last year.

 

Dwyer to Orlando seems very unexpected to me.

 

Doesn't his wife play there?
