My 22 Under 22 vote is in. As usual I skewed much more heavily towards "proven" rather than "prospect," and the fact that here were so many of the former seems like an indication of health for the league overall.

Dieng might be the best young player in the USL, and he's got an elite nose for goal. You can't ask for better instinct in the box and movement in transition. For my money, he can score right away in MLS if the service is there.
Big, big questions for Hartford's playoff hopes.

Would really like to see a version of the Loons that are more committed to possessing the ball and showing just as much discipline in attack as they do in defense.

Michael Boxall and Robin Lod insisted that Saturday’s win over Miami was just another three points for #MNUFC.
I think they’re wrong, and it meant a whole lot more than that.

Minnesota United plays it blasé after win over Lionel Messi et al.
Loons followers have endured a couple decades of unsatisfying soccer developments. This day may have been their most satisfying of all.

Sources: Minnesota United in advanced talks to acquire Julian Gressel from Inter Miami.
Nothing done yet. Still details to figure out. Optimism something gets done, but not there yet.

Am I just being a typical fly over state fan when I say the fall-spring schedule is a bad idea?
