Dont be so gender specific! 😁

Anyway, not our first Dane, but our first Danish acquisition:

How quickly you forget the great Dane, Richards.


#1329380 Valot out for year with ACL tear

Need a difference maker now for sure (thought we needed one anyway).  Need it to seriously challenge for MLS cup, the talent level of the league is much higher than 5 years ago.  We cant run out Muyl and Royer and expect to win multiple playoff series.


#1325079 Bradley Wright-Phillips

This is the first I've heard BWP saying he didn't take soccer seriously enough in England. Before I thought he attributed his inability to break through to inconsistency and not being given enough chances.


Agree, I think weve heard that he was beginning to lose interest/lose his drive but not quite this.  Very interesting and we lucked out that it worked out this way.  One of my least favorite cliches was that all of his production was because of Henry but I would say we can probably thank him for BWP coming here.  It probably opened that door at the least.


#1322109 The right side

Dyer on MSG confirmed that Kemar is working on that, and hopefully we have in a month of so.  


He also said Matthew Olusunde may come back and said there was no formal offer for Pusseto but his phrasing led me to believe there is something there possibly.  #PussWatch

Those were great as always, thanks!


#1317470 Marc Rzatkowski loaned from Salzburg to Metro

Posted by Metro Red on 25 January 2018 - 10:54 AM

This is only a ploy to get his sister Emily Ratajkowski on the team as well


The sign the brother strategy finally paying dividends


#1317457 Red Bull Tactics and Formation for 2018 Season

Posted by Metro Red on 25 January 2018 - 09:34 AM

This video explains the tactics Jesse Marsch will most likely employ this season due to the player acquisition in the offseason.  It's based on the parent club RB Leipzig but just plug in New York and you're there.  He tried this formation last year but had to abandon it due to personnel.  Enjoy!!!!
 
I'm excited!!!!

Interesting, I always enjoy tactical breakdowns thanks.  The way they explained Naby Keitas role made me wonder if Tyler might play that role this season.


#1317160 "At least two, maybe three of four big splashes"

Posted by Metro Red on 20 January 2018 - 08:51 AM

I'm guessing:
 
1. Kaku
2. Casseres
3. an outside back
4. Pussetto 


Yes, please.  Where do I sign?

Thank you, I tried to do this yesterday but was too stupid to figure it out


#1310021 Bigger Picture: Open Cup Post-Mortem

Posted by Metro Red on 22 September 2017 - 08:53 AM

One point I'll make that bothers me as well is not only have we cut our spending the last few years but we've cut it while the rest of the league has increased (and in some cases significantly increased) their spending.  That's a worrying trend as the league continues to grow and improve and investment in talent increases.


#1300256 2017 Salaries

Posted by Metro Red on 25 April 2017 - 05:56 PM

My analysis: some guys are overpaid and some are underpaid


#1297811 Frederik Gulbrandsen and relying on synergy

Posted by Metro Red on 10 March 2017 - 03:53 PM

Are other teams jealous of our synergy? 


Yes, we were ranked number 1 again in Grant Wahl's synergy rankings.

If they're not in FIFA; do not want.


If they're not in FIFA do they even exist?


#1289249 BWP -- greatest player to have ever worn the shirt

Posted by Metro Red on 25 October 2016 - 07:17 PM

 
JPA could be greatest South American player in franchise history. 


How soon we forget Digão


#1286838 Sacha gets the call

Posted by Metro Red on 07 September 2016 - 08:06 AM

Marsch would probably still start Grella & Muyl over him...


Yea but he would tear up the USL with RBII
