Enjoyer of vibes-based attacks.
It took a goal for them to actually start playing again

Timbers need some control this half. They’ve not really been able to keep possession since half time.

Timbers have some really nice warm up kits tonight

Meme from @martinrafelt.bsky.social on the Third Circle podcast perfectly describes Poch's #USMNT

The reason Daniel Ballard is so good is because he shares a name with the greatest USL2 team in the west @goballardfc.bsky.social

The only ethical use of generative ai possible.
I made an LLM that answers questions about silly MLS roster rules. @talevy.soccer asked it to explain the discover rights situation as a pirate. The results were both funny and informative.

This is what would happen if stormtroopers tried to take penalties.

I don’t really get why the Timbers don’t try to possess in the final third. They just play it out wide and cross right to RSL.

I’m not really liking Portland’s 3 back. They aren’t able to possess in St. Louis’s half because the only players getting forward are out wide + Moreno or da Costa centrally. This also makes it hard to create chances that aren’t crosses, which they aren’t good at.

I was watching the Timbers play New England last night and saw that Santiago Moreno was gliding past his defender nearly every time - when he was on the left side of the field. But on the right, he was losing the ball. So I looked into it.

After the second goal, the #usmnt started to spread out too much and became too static. Luna and Tillman were way too far apart from each other so they couldn’t combine and too far up so they stopped getting the ball regularly.

I don’t know how anyone can argue against this. He created 3 goals and scored another.

Deeply embarrassing manager
U.S. men’s national team coach Mauricio Pochettino said he was “jealous” to see Juventus and not the U.S. invited to the White House.

Great article by @838carlisle.bsky.social

As fun as it is to see Botafogo beat PSG, the men’s CWC is marred by sportswashing, fascism, and refusal to let players rest, and this time/money could be better spent on furthering the already underfunded women’s game

one neat trick to fix the men's club world cup
a(nother) men's tournament no one asked for is taking the place of a women's tournament that's needed

Nicolas Jackson somehow getting a rating equal to his minutes played

A week ago, I attended Portland Timbers vs. San Jose Earthquakes. I came into the game knowing pretty much nothing about how the Timbers play and I was pleasantly surprised with how often they tried to attack through combination play. Here’s a thread of some of my thoughts.

Timbers are making me like Phil Neville…

This is a tragedy.

How are Thorns getting Concacafed by a team from North Carolina of all places

Thorns look way better when they possess in the final third.

If I were Thorns, I’d want to get the ball to Sugita as much as possible in the final third to find the short runs in behind.

The Portland Thorns coach’s nationality is easily given away by his budget Phil Neville look.

Some items of note in here:

'a few weeks ago somebody close to Pochettino put it to me that “they don’t feel the game, don’t smell it.”'

'Christian Pulisic is probably the best US player at the moment. He is extremely gifted, but very little he does is unpredictable; he’s a straight-line runner.'
Today on Wilson's World... after the USA's defeats to Panama and Canada, why is the US still not a football country?

Thread on my thoughts about Poch’s first real games (mostly the Panama game) as #USMNT manager. In the first episode of The Third Circle podcast, @martinrafelt.bsky.social came up with the perfect meme to describe my thoughts on these matches.
