Will there still be a knockout round before the conference semifinal this season? Those were the best matches last time.

How has Waston played for Vancouver lately? He was amazing on both games for the national team .

Waston honestly turned from a walking card machine into a pretty good centre back, he is a beast in the air and any team that really tries to lob in crosses against the caps will have a terrible time.

Yeah he has improved that a lot and is pretty much unbeatable in the air, not only due to his size but because he improved his positioning a lot.

Meanwhile, he should have gotten a card for this, but instead it was just called a foul by much-shittier-since-WC2014 ref Mark Geiger.


That's more like the Waston I remember lol

Maybe if there was an MLS club that was like a version of a Liga MX club, but in the USA? Has anyone had this idea yet?

You guys do know that most other leagues in CONCACAF (and even CONMEBOL maybe) do playoffs and poo poo like that to keep interest up, see also the "torneos cortos" phenomenon. No league in the Americas does a proper "European style" standard championship. MLS is fine and it's definitely the second best league in CONCACAF and in the top 5 in the Americas.

Also see Argentina or Mexico with their crazy relegation systems or the fact that everyone changes the rules/structure of the tournament all of the time. Some of the MLS rules are very "American" but it is a thing in the whole continent to do crazy/silly things with our leagues.

I'm hearing that Herediano's Keyner Brown might be heading to MLS soon. He's a decent CB who sometimes does something stupid and becomes a liability. Similar to how Waston was before going to Vancouver but not so huge.

Another tico to MLS, Keyner Brown is going to Houston. He's a decent CB but nothing special.

The East coast of Costa Rica has a very high Afro-Caribbean population, mainly in the Limon province, descendants of slaves brought over from Jamaica during the colonial period.

Looks like the Crew are trying to buy Jonathan McDonald, here are some of his best skills (27s if the time thing doesn't work)

Unfortunately McDonald won't show his lackluster chancla skills in Columbus, negotiations fell through. But I heard that Keyner Brown to Houston is officially done, enjoy your "whatever, nothing special" CB.

I'm not a Chicago dude, but maybe this place, it looks like a Juve supporter club has met there for CL matches last year: https://twitter.com/JuveChicago

E: all the CL matches are on their schedule, it seems: http://ajhudsons.com/info.php?R=AJH&L=&H=1&P=Info&S=TOP:Soccer



Thanks, looks like those guys are not active on twitter anymore but I'll go there tomorrow to watch the game

I will buy a Timbers kit and scarf and start the CR branch of the Timbers Army if they embarrass the purple shits tonight, will be hilarious if they don't make it out of the easiest group because they couldn't beat Dragon away.
