Probably a good idea to proof read your AI slop before posting it to your team's website.

What a way to celebrate the rich history of the Hudson River Derby with 4 current/former Red Bull players, 2 New York Knicks, and 0 NYCFC players at a concert venue that actual New Yorkers hate to go to.

Wishing Keaton all the best in recovery. A huge blow to the ceiling of NYCFC's midfield this year.

NYCFC CB Thiago Martins is out 4-6 weeks after undergoing knee surgery. A backline already dealing with Risa leaving
gets even thinner.

With Kevin O'Toole delivering an excellent performance off the bench, Pascal Jansen downplayed the idea of a competition with Birk Risa for minutes at left back, saying Risa has a "different profile than Kevin."

Matt Freese in the Gold Cup meant three games starting for Tomas Romero. Jansen said he had "no doubt in his mind" about putting in Romero, labeling some of his saves as "spectacular", but not surprising because he "works so hard in training." #nycfc #mls

Pascal Jansen called Mitja Ilenič’s goal-and-assist performance “pretty decent,” but said he wants to see “more consistency in his performances.” He added that Ilenič “was missing out on the options in the middle.” #nycfc #mls

Hannes Wolf, currently on a tear with six goals in his last six matches, was praised by Pascal Jansen as “the ultimate team player.” #nycfc #mls

Jovan Mijatovic loaned back to OH Leuven until June 2026. It once again opens a second U22 spot. NYCFC now has two open U22s and 1 DP slot open for the summer window, but on the FO to show a willingness to use them.

Pascal Jansen on using long throws at Yankee Stadium:
"Modern football is about finding opportunities… even throwing can help you. If you have that weapon, I would suggest you use it… but you have to have the players that are able to execute as well."
July 2, 2025 at 11:29 AM
Jansen on his absence last week: "I've been in professional football for over three decades, but there is nothing more important than family… no doubt in my mind I had to fly back."

Pascal Jansen said Toronto parting ways with Insigne and Bernardeschi wouldn’t affect NYCFC’s approach on Thursday: “We are prepared for whatever scenario comes our way… both players were not involved in [the previous] game as well.”
July 2, 2025 at 11:18 AM
Pascal Jansen didn’t hide his frustration with NYCFC’s first-half performance in Montreal, calling the conceded goal “simply unacceptable.” He added later in the press conference, “I was hoping that we had moved on from that point in our process.”
July 2, 2025 at 11:04 AM
Andres Perea couldn’t hide his smile talking about Alonso Martínez vs. Matt Freese in the Gold Cup: "It's really weird because you want both to get the result."
July 2, 2025 at 10:45 AM
On losing twice to Montreal, who sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference table: "We don't have the right type of combination play in and around the final third."
June 29, 2025 at 12:54 PM
Acting Head Coach Medhi Ballouchy on NYCFC's lack of intensity in the first half: "We showed up a little bit late to the party."
June 29, 2025 at 12:47 PM
Keaton healthy enough for the bench is great to see, but key question is for how many monutes.
May 25, 2025 at 6:16 PM
Look for the same concept as Wednesday with Haak fluidly moving from the back line to the midfield.
May 17, 2025 at 8:21 PM
Credit to the sickos on the NYCFC Forums, but tucked into the announcement for Seymour Reid's short-term loan yesterday, was that the he will be joining the first team on a homegrown contract in 2026.

The 17-year-old has 7 goals in 10 MLSNP matches and is eligible to sign a HG contract this fall.
May 15, 2025 at 11:03 AM
Looks like with Risa in, Haak moves into the midfield.
May 14, 2025 at 10:50 PM
Took until May but NYCFC has a new signing in the lineup. O'Neill replaces the injured Keaton Parks and likely pushes either Perea or Shore to the wing.
May 10, 2025 at 10:47 PM
Very strong lineup for NYCFC against a bad Pittsburgh Riverhounds team. Message from Pascal is very clear: NYCFC wants to win a trophy.
