Oh si.
Actually, it could've been 3-3. CJ wasn't offside and Red Bulls should've got a penalty.

Literally do not see how some of our offsides were offside. It was ridic

Full All-Star gameday roster:
Sometimes I wonder if it's even worth wading into subreddits. I think part of the problem is a lot of the Orlando City fans are so insular in their knowledge, be it because they're fairly new to the sport and only follow the team or just only follow MLS or what, and trying to even rationally discuss something with them is not worthwhile.
Any idea when we're getting Lawrence back? It feels a lot like we don't have the speed to stop these counters this year without him on the field.
Kwarasey is out. He's heading back to Norway.
Frankly, I'm not too surprised. Gleeson has been amazing and sending Adam back to Norway frees up an international spot and a significant amount of cap space. We need to sign another winger.
That being said, dude holds a place in Timbers legend, and he'll never have to pay for a drink in PDX again. Wish him the best of luck.

Ugh right. I had a long back and forth with and Orlando fan a little while ago and they just. didn't. get. anything.
I love how many new fans there are -- it's amazing. But some of are very hard to get through to and can't see the forest through the trees with some things. A very us against them mentality even if you're a part of the us!
Don't worry a couple of years of losing seasons will humble them.
It happened to TFC fans so we can tell from experience.

A month ago, he was supposed to be out for around a month.
Soccer is getting much bigger it seems like. My son is 8 and it's all he plays. They actually had to turn away kids for the travel team because there were so many who showed up. Even after they extended the amount of teams.
Red Bulls do a really good job at outreach by the way once you plug into them. He's been to 3 games now, went to a free camp yesterday, is enrolled in a Red Bulls summer camp in the park right by our house. They send a lot of promotional stuff as well.
The Arena is great. No bad seats, not very expensive, parking is not terrible, fans are WAY into it.

Apparently Lampard's mission in MLS is to score using every part of his body. Like a personal goal or something
The Red Bulls are really going all in on youth development.
Plus I love our stadium so much, it's glorious. Even the midfield seats are cheaper than they would be for other sports. I buy some for me and my dad every now and again and he loves it.
Yup. Our clubs are doing everything right, finally. It certainly took them long enough to figure it out. If we can fix up the national team program at the youth level then we could be a real force.

Sounds like Kreis is in as the new Orlando City coach.

seems like a good fit to me.
I agree; between MLS, the huge success of the Women's US team, the progress of the Men's US team... and at least in my area a lot of people are shying away from American football... seems like lots of kids are into it. My 8 year old knows every team, every country, every club, all the players... even the flags of the countries.
Soccer is also a sport where you don't need to be particularly genetically gifted if that makes sense. It's ok if you're not 6'5 220 and shredded, you can play.
Not to mention that all you need is a ball. No need for lots of gear, pads, a hoop, ice.

Guzan might be headed to Middlesbrough from Aston Villa. They have Victor Valdes as their starter, but he should compete for minutes.
