    looks like MLS is trying the regional approach to see how it goes when things resume, Atlanta announces home and homes with Nashville/Miami/Orlando as their first 6 matches

    So 90% of their schedule will be versus the leagues 3 worst teams? Who in Orlando sucked off DonG to come up with that one?

    They realize Beckham owns Miami and doesn’t play for them right? Dumb.

    They updated the app with the new schedule. Not a fan at all.

    So reading through the press release it looks like they’re doing same day travel so that’s why they’re staying regional. So for example, Sporting flies to Minn, goes straight to the stadium, plays, then goes straight to the airport and flies home. Then Minn does the same 3 days later.

    Everyone is going to end up playing in Jersey. That field is pretty nice though.

    Pretty sure this is where the rumors started. Never heard of “MLS UK Show” I’m sure there’s interest but an MLS podcaster in the UK wouldn’t be breaking the news

    When you have the nicest field in MLS...


    It's gonna get torn the fuck up. RBNY, RBNY2, New York/New Jersey/and Sometimes Connecticut FC, and Toronto all playing there?

    On BSI the Podcast when they had Dom on they said the only good thing about Orlando is that their field is nice but Dom, Ike, Benny, and Sal (GOAT) all agreed Jersey had the best turf by far. Said SKC (they’ve spent so much money on that underground sensor system) and Orlando were the clear 2A and 2B. Why does grass grow so well in Jersey?

    Interesting. Not the type of player I saw them going after. I thought McDonough said they would use their DP spots on a 9&10 and a TAM spot on a winger.

    I think this will be a TAM deal. Then get a 9 with the DP slot.

    McDonough using that on an aging #8 would not be in line with the atlanta model he was following.

    he WAS very good but he’s on the downside of his career but should be fine in the MLS

    he’s probably not as skilled offensively as either of those, he’s more of like Bruce Bowen type....defensive stopper who will protect his CBs and win balls back for his attackers

    Unless there is some Zlatan-like shithousery going on I don’t see that being possible. Juve paid over $30 million for him 2 years ago and it looks like he was getting over $8 million a year and still had a year left on that contract.

    Dont believe this at all. JDS is their most important player. Pavon their best player. Chicarito is the one that sells tickets. Which of the 3 would they cut?
