Ergh the MLS - The no Relegation League where most stadiums are god awful, have cringe AF Cheerleaders & they have 'Play offs' they're not even what I consider a real soccer/football league so maybe after his tenure here he'll fit right in.

The one thing I WILL give the MLS is it doesn't use the words 'Super' or 'Mega' in their title because that's just cringe AF. Imagine being called a Something Super Duper League 🤮
The shit stadiums are very much the minority nowadays and I don't think there are any cheerleaders anymore either.

They'll be scrambling around like blue assed flies on Monday , and still end up with bugger all .

This window really has been a bloody farce


As bad as this window has been in the long term it could be good for the club?
The way this club is run and has been run for at least the last 5 years has been horrendously bad and now everyone can see it.
It's time for change and everyone should know this now.
Probably won't happen but it's time to hit ENIC where it hurts and stop buying tickets and spending money at the ground and shop for certain pre arranged games

Is it like with other US-Leagues that the MLS winners call themselves the "world champions"?
 
I'd actually bet good money that at least Dane Scarlett is gonna see decent minutes against brentford. Need Richy uninjured and sonny fresh vs liverpool. I'm guessing 60'th minute or so on for richy and sonny may not even play more than 45.
Fuck Richarlatan, just give the minutes to Scarlett. At least he’s got a chance of a future here. The Brazilian clown needs to be shipped out as soon as we can find some mugs stupid enough to take him.

I don't think you get me - I'm not just talking about those FEMALE ones I'm talking about these Dudes & Gals who all they do is face the crowd to get them pumped up on like crane things (see below) but sometimes just on the pitch - they have horns, drums & shit just having their backs to the entire game WT?!?!?

I went to a few games in the US when I went there about 3 years ago Austin - you get fans just sitting out in their cars like some sort of picknick in the carparks for HOURS before a game BBQing n shit as well, they tell me it's because they drove from so far (makes no sense to me) - it's a different culture I just can't get into it.

They can have their little League where the only team in any real competition they can get into is that JOKE of a FIFA Club world Cup thing & they only got 1 Team into it because Messi plays in that team IMAGINE MY SHOCK...

MLS is a competition with no real competition in my eyes.

Ohhhhh, the Capos, I see what you're saying.

That's pretty common in Germany and Eastern Europe I think, that's certainly not an American invention

On this I totally agree with you. Nobody tell MemphisWill MemphisWill

MLS is the Levy dream of revenue totally decoupled from ambition and success on the pitch.

It will need to break out of that muddle to continue to grow.

God knows but one thing is for sure they don't use the same terms that any other country does tactics wise...

instead of low line or high line they use the word BLOCK
They don't use the word pressing they use something I can't remember.

Anyways don't pay any consideration to the MLS yet - it's a teenagers league.
 
If noone signs this window it really must rate as the worst window ever. When we didn't buy under Poch it was when the team was flying at the top end of the table. Now, with our dangerous position in the league, the amount of games we have to play and the number of injuries we have, this window has been bad.......very bad
