How much has Leicester received over the last two or three transfer windows? Good on them, but wow this is not sustainable.

The lack of yellow cards in that incident with "falling" on Altidore and McKennie being choked told the story with the ref all game. Have to finish the early chances. Thought the defense played well to only give up one goal with how much Mexico had the ball in the 2nd. Bright future for sure...

I really loved watching Altidore sticking up for Pulisic.

Herrera decided he wanted to work on his fitness and skipped. Chicharito is expecting his first child so he skipped, and I don't think Vela was selected.

I can agree with that. I do also remember players making moves to European clubs during that time, only to see no or little playing time stunting development for the national team.

You know... That isn't bad at all. Maybe this is romanticizing the past a bit, but I always did like what he did with the USMNT. I think the team was screwed in general for the last cycle due to what has been discussed here and that lack of talent in the next wave of players. He would add...

I am not at all surprised about Spain’s early goal here against the women. I thought some of the passing and possession by the back line has been sketchy all tournament. Finally bit them in the butt.

https://www.whatahowler.com/efl-championship-financial-bubble/ Interesting article about the finances of The Championship.

I understand there are different leagues, but personally, I can't fathom rooting for more than one European club. Especially, like some of these guys do as mentioned above. It's all about the limited exposure Americans had prior to the last ~8 years. I can remember first getting into the sport...

Yeah, again, not denying it. Just saying it has happened in the CL as well.

Not denying that, but the time wasn't as bad as it could have been. Plus, let's not act like the same can't be said in the CL at times as well.

Honest, most (maybe all) of Arsenal's games were Sunday's after Europa League fixtures, so no difference than playing Wednesday/Saturday for CL.

I think it was in Georgia like 15/16 or something. As one friend put it: Soccer and Olympics, doesn't get more corrupt.

Utter disgrace having the Europa League Final in Baku. Logistical nightmare, easiest flight is 20 hours. Ticket allotments are negligible because "the airport can't handle it." Baku isn't even IN the small European portion of Azerbaijan. International relations (or lack thereof) means Mkhitaryan...

I'd give Man U some credit for that PSG win, and the spark Ole gave them, but, if we are being fair, that team was doomed to fall apart. No cohesion or direction from the beginning. Arsenal were undefeated in, what, 22 straight. I don't care the competition they played, that's impressive...

To say they are garbage is a bit disingenuous don't you think? I believe that comment right there proves just how good City and Pool are, but takes away from those other clubs. All 4 of those clubs are somewhere around where you'd expect them to finish point wise, however, they just cannot...

Gunners with a convincing win over Newcastle last night, moves them to 3rd. Already as many points as last year's total with 7 games remaining. Spurs are doing Spursy things...

Yeah, an example out of him. So how is it justifiable to the players to lose points? If you fined the club, I think that would be more appropriate than dropping points.

This is one of those things that I've never really gotten behind in European soccer. I mean, I get punishment needs to happen, but I don't feel it's justifiable to hurt the team (hmm similar to NCAA punishments with vacated wins I guess, but still... not really). Honestly, how a person can even...
