[QUOTE=kaiteng]Union had a big comeback to draw Revs 4-4. Freddy Adu netted his first goal since his MLS return. Adu and Mwanga will make some noises in the playoff for sure.[/QUOTE]
Eh.. Le Toux is the best player on that team, he's pretty damn good. Mwanga is a nice young player but he's a spot starter atm.
Philly has been struggling of late and the Red Bulls will take there spot if they ever wake up. If NY beats Vancouver(as they should) NY will get the 2nd playoff spot in the east imo..

[QUOTE=kaiteng]Goddamn Henry stole a win from TFC at the 88th minute today. TFC 1-1 NYRB. :rant[/QUOTE]
Yea Henry had a real nice flick + goal..
Toronto is improving.. They are getting some quality players especially with Kovermans and Frings. Kovermans looks like he'll be contending for a golden boot next season and Frings is how a DP should perform(Raffa Marquez I'm looking at you). I was also impressed at the young players(Morgan and Stinson)? If Toronto can get another creator in the mid with the final DP they'll be dangerous next season. What's going on with De Guzman? Is he officially a bust?
As for the Red Bulls Backe is inept at managing this team. For a team fighting for it's playoff life I can't understand the idea of playing a defensive game especially with how good the offense has been. The team looked so unmotivated and was so predictable with their attack. It seemed like Henry was the only player with some creativity and he also created some nice chances.. Marquez needs to be benched as he just clearly doesn't give a shit. He gets the ball stolen from him and then he proceeds to jog as the opposition striker is about to score. ****ig asshole
Now it's a must win vs LA.. Hopefully they'll rest the starters considering they have a long schedule not to mention they probably clinched the SS.

Nothing would be sweeter than getting the Shield against Shitvas :)

Re: 2011 MLS thread
you ready for the CONCACAF match Kaiteng?

Re: 2011 MLS thread
Juninho's goal was a beaut, one of the best I have ever seen.
I'm liking the possible draw for the Galaxy and hoping for Metapan just due to wanting to give all 3 MLS squads a chance to get to the Semis.

Re: 2011 MLS thread
crap.
I want to go to the FCD match but its playing at the exact same time as game 6 of the World Series.

Re: 2011 MLS thread
:mad: :facepalm :(
i hate that i can always spot myself in the stands when i watch highlights of fcd matches
the crowd that did get their butts out there were lively at least.
i really hope that wasn't the last time i see Brek Shea play live as it would be a disappointing end.

Re: 2011 MLS thread
that shea guy looks like he could start for liverpool right now to be honest, looks every bit the player downing is, maybe thats cuz MLS is a pylon league but not sure

Re: 2011 MLS thread
[QUOTE=kaiteng]I heard many European teams as big as Liverpool and Manchester City are interested in him. You should just hope him to go to the team that he will start rather than riding a bench of those big teams.[/QUOTE]
Alot of teams are interested in him and I think you meant to say Man U instead of city, I really heard Fergie is interested in him big time.. Also there will be a good transfer fee involved as Shea just resigned a long term contract with Dallas in the beginning of the season. Also Dallas rejected a bid from Shalke(it was around 2.5 euros) Also he will probably be loaned out initially especially if he joins a major club so he get's a feel for English football. He'll have the same impact Clint Dempsey has had possibly more.
Also Tim Ream is getting interest from Arsenal, word is Arsenal is scouting him throughout the postseason. Rumor also has it that NYRB rejected a $4mil bid from Arsenal earlier in the yr which I don't believe.
As for the NYRB-LA game it should be ****ing good but too bad it's on a sunday.. I'll still be watching and possibly attending? But we won't be having Solli as he's suspended due to cards, sucks cause he's probably the best attacking Full Back in the game, he's scary good in the offense. We will most likely be missing McCarty as well and hopefully Rodgers will be good to go as I want to see a Luke Rodger-Landon Donovan showdown again. But one thing that's a positive is that we always play LA good so it should be a good matchup. I'm ready for Henry to go god mode as he's that type of player.
------Henry---Rodgers
Lindpere--Tainio--Marquez--Richards
Miller--Ream--Keel--Mendes
Rost
This is most likely the lineup if Luke is not ready to go but if he's not able to go I defintelty see Backe using Ballshiity instead of Agudelo(He has a major man crush on Ballouchy..)
I heard Donovan and Keane might miss the game is this true? I think we might have encountered LA at the right time, hopefully they peaked and just tired of winning.

[QUOTE=kaiteng][B]Seattle Sounders:[/B] ALMOST the best team in MLS the past three years. They win everything but the big one.
Probably too early to tell but they are trailing RSL 2-0 and only 10 minutes or so left. They will have a tough work in the second game.
edit: Oh well, 3-0 now.[/QUOTE]
They won the Open cup 3 years in a row.. I'll call that winning something.
They had a bad matchup with RSL.. Even though RSL was struggling they are still a pretty damn good team. Well Seattle is going to sign some big name player this offseason.
