Overall, not bad for a Quakes B team that had to deal with STL’s physical play. Edwards’ poor play was the difference. Quakes should start looking for Daniel’s replacement this offseason. The guy is so fragile and can’t stay healthy, might as well call him Mr. Glass. #SJvSTL

Welp, Quakes defense strikes again. For someone that’s been playing as long as Edwards has, he makes the oddest decisions on when to come out.
May 31, 2025 at 8:34 PM
Josef with the goal! He’s been due. Too many great chances shot right to the keeper from him in the last few matches.
May 31, 2025 at 8:25 PM
After playing well the last couple of games, Edwards with the error on that goal in not coming out to get the ball. #SJvSTL

Quakes beat LAG!! Good defensive performance from SJ. They bent but did not break. I was worried with the speed that LAG had upfront but the back line held it together. Good job from Benji in limiting Paintsil all game long.

Judd to Bouda to break the draw. Keep it going Quakes! Judd doing well in the super-sub role.

A lot more eventful than the scoreline so far in this Cali Clásico. Both sides had their chances. Let’s see what the 2nd half brings us.
May 29, 2025 at 3:14 AM
What a treat with this mid-week Cali Classico. A number of storylines that make the result of this match very unpredictable. Arena once again doing his best to rotate the starting XI. Hoping Pellegrino does not suck today.
May 29, 2025 at 2:25 AM
I woulda taken a point at the start of the Quakes match against Revs given the lineup but with Pellegrino’s massive miss, I feel like Quakes should have won. Is Benji K. so bad that he can’t start over Pellegrino?
May 18, 2025 at 2:24 AM
Arena with the patchwork lineup against the Revs due to schedule congestion. Although, Quakes are not playing bad. Judd is giving us a solid #9 performance so far. Pellegrino has to go before next season. He keeps missing great chances.

What a solid win today from Quakes at Rapids. Jones is such a good pick up. Hopefully it’s nothing serious with Buck needing to come off due to injury.

Arena has gotten decent results with the 3-5-2 but not sure this roster was built for it. SJ has FBs collecting dust on the bench and there’s no natural wingback in the roster. The midfield is congested and chaotic. I’d like Arena to try a 3-4-3 which would thin the midfield and push up Espinoza.

This is the potential 3rd goal on Rodrigues in tonight’s #SJKC match. Yes, he had an assist but Arena needs to keep him back, especially with 3 defenders in the formation if he’s really gonna stick with the 3-5-2.
Salloi on nearly getting a hat trick late: "I'm very mad at myself. I know for sure there is a text from my dad in my inbox."

"I've never scored a hat trick."

He says he'll probably wake up tonight thinking about that miss. #SportingKC #SJvSKC

Welp. #SJvKC
April 20, 2025 at 4:43 AM
Arena taking Rodrigues out in the 88th min after giving up two goals (coulda been 3) seems a bit late and pointless.
April 20, 2025 at 4:32 AM
Eventful 1st half in #SJvKC match with 5 goals. Quakes defense regressed to their 2024 form. Luckily Quakes have the offensive firepower to respond. I’m not sure we’re getting the best of Espinoza in the 3-5-2 formation. You can also see why Kaye has not been a starter this season.

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care.

They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely.

This won’t just harm people. This will kill people.

They own this.

Peak Bruce Arena managing everyone’s expectations (apparently including John Fisher’s) in the @quakesepicenter.bsky.social
post-match presser after a 4-0 season opener. Listen to the man. He’s been here before.

The kid celebrating being carried back to the stands. Just good vibes all around at Quakes season opener.
MLS is so back.

Rodrigues scores and has to carry a pitch invading child back to his seat before restarting.

San Jose Earthquakes up 3-0 on Real Salt Lake now, and they look like a legit strong team in Bruce Arena’s debut.
February 23, 2025 at 6:50 AM
I do not want to read too much into the 1st match of the season, especially after starting with a 3-5-2 formation (including a homegrown making a debut) but…QUAKES ARE WINNING THE CUP!!!
February 23, 2025 at 6:42 AM
Good for Jebo scoring in his debut. Bummer Quakes couldn’t keep him.
