Also have Robles on my fantasy team

League leader in saves! Dude is a beast. If we lock down a long term contract I'm copping his jersey asap

 

[ActStriker]

I made Ashe my captain in fantasy this week :/

Bruin got me a sweet 2 points.

My team is garbage. ;_;

CONCACAF Champion's League! Two game playoff. Two goals scored. Neither team won a game. How underwhelming.

Away Goals rule sucks.

 

[Osorio]

When does champions league start?

Can't wait for us to lose to some semi pro team from Guyana

 

[Askani]

Nothing officially announced yet. They still have teams left to qualify from other countries before they can even do the group draws.

 

[Osorio]

Pretty much confirmed were playing the cosmos in the fourth round. I'm hoping its away, would love a massive south ward presence on long island

 

[Osorio]

Good to see shalrie Joseph back in New England. He was an integral part of their golden era

I like Vancouver's 40th anniversary logo



I wish the Quakes had done something temporary instead of making their new crappy crest...

Dammit Tim! Can't let that nobody score the Pk!

 

[Osorio]

Petke says that there won't be many changes in the lineup tomorrow. So he's trotting out slow legged Peggy and limping Henry on three days rest against a possession side like Columbus. This fucking guy...

However I don't want Alexander touching the middle of the park again. Meh

 

[Meier]

Dammit Tim! Can't let that nobody score the Pk!

I have to admit, I cringe a little when I see it called a PK. Letting a kid score a Panenka! For shame.

- Michael Bradley is undergoing a minor foot op this week, but he should be back for TFC's next game on May 3rd

Keep your fingers crossed for all of the USMNT players in the next couple months.

I knew we should have frozen him in carbonite until Brazil!

I'm officially in for the SKC #Roaddron to Chicago. This will be my first away game.

Hopefully they aren't battery throwers.

- ESPN: Tim Howard to retire after current deal

Tim Howard's new contract will be his last.

The longtime U.S. national team goalkeeper, who last week signed a two-year extension with Everton that will take him past his 39th birthday, says there is no chance he will play professionally into his forties -- despite Toffees manager Roberto Martinez's belief that he is capable.

Tim Howard says he will not return to MLS after his new Everton contract expires.

"He is a fit man and at the peak of his powers," Martinez said when the deal, which runs through the 2017-18 English Premier League season, was announced on April 17. "I know he will play on beyond 40."

Not so, according to Howard.

"I'll be on a beach somewhere when I'm 40," Howard told ESPNFC.com in a phone interview on Friday. "I would pretty much take that to the bank that I won't be playing past 40. There are other things I want to achieve in life, other things that I want to do."

Howard has spoken often about his desire to move into a front office role -- either in England or in MLS -- after his playing days are over. Television work could be another option; he's already provided color commentary on several of NBC's Premier League broadcasts this season.

But Howard has also expressed a desire to finish his career where it started. He left MLS in 2003 when he was transferred from the MetroStars -- now the New York Red Bulls -- to Manchester United. His new pact with Everton all but ended those ambitions.

"Up until last week it was a possibility," Howard said. "But I think that ship has sailed for me now. I think MLS had its chance, if I'm being honest, but now I'll finish my career with Everton and be a happy man."

We really need a win. We were looking so good last week against RSL. Please, please, please let us bring it home against Houston. If we can't pull down a win this week, it's panic time for real.

 

[sazabirules]

I can't wait for the Fox deal. The crappy coverage can't be worse than ≤ 1 games a week. I don't count the games on Spanish-only channels.

 

[Nesotenso]

fox deal won't be so great if most of the games are on Fox Sports 2.

Making me have to wait 48 hrs to watch matches on MLS Live.

 

[The Culture Vulture]

MLS not looking as bad to Tim Howard. Everton defenders give him two own goals within a half an hour of game time since renewing his contract.

Europa league here we come.

Isn't the Fox deal just rumored at this point? And I wouldn't want MLS to be completely nuked. I miss the Friday night match the most.

I like watching the games on Unimas. I have no idea what they're saying but hey, it's MLS on TV.

I'm assuming it will happen. It was great when you could see matches on multiple nights.

 

[Nesotenso]

Chandler was in the starting 11 for Nurenberg. Doesn't sound like he played well in the first half. Subbed off to start the 2nd. Hoping it is a stamina and form issue instead of a reinjury.

Brooks got his second goal of the season for Hertha Berlin.

 

[Osorio]

I believe the ratings for the mls cup final on unimas equaled the ratings on espn. Unimas is going to be a large part of the next deal.

What id really like is a dedicated show for mls. I pretty much have to scrounge for all news online

 

[Cornballer]

Good to see Brooks' play picking up.

Boyd with a brace for Rapid Wein

 

[daoster]

So do we call Boyd into the 30 man? The guy has had a decent season so far, but he's never scored for us, but how many times has he really started or even played for the senior team? Or is he a 2018 player.

 

[xbhaskarx]

Sounders looking dangerous... 13 goals in the last four games.

 

[Osorio]

Deuce with seven goals already. His confidence should be flying in brazil

 

[Osorio]

Exact same lineup as Wednesday for tonight's match.

Cahill and akpan on the bench

Pretty short rest, hopefully Petke isn't too conservative with his subs.

I'm expecting Cahill on at the 60th and Steele for Peggy pretty early as well

 

[Judderman]

So many close chances.

 

[Osorio]

If only Alexander could shoot with his left

We'd be up 2-0 if he could.

I may join you in that decision. My favorite player on this squad and my favorite Red Bull in recent memory.

Miller stays winning those 50/50 balls.
