One bad mistake and we have looked like the better team overall but Portland has made a living winning games just like that over the years. Will see if we can generate more offense in the second half. [Reply]

Vermes has made a decent living losing games as the “better squad” as well. [Reply]

Not very smart from the perspective of trying to gain new fans. Not many casual fans are going to be spending 15 bucks a month for this.
The only people who subscribe to apple tv are the "type(hipster westport starbucks dwellers)" who already watch soccer... the people who don't already subscribe will not buy apple tv just to watch B-tier soccer.
Horrible decision for the growth of the sport. I assume even a lot of soccer fans won't subscribe and will just start watching better foreign leagues. [Reply]
Was kind of surprised to see Sweat get the start over him. I was really happy with that signing.
Walter has looked great tonight. Really wish we could trade some of our midfield depth for a super sub winger and another CB for depth. I like Fontas and Voloder as the starters, but it’s just so worrisome that they are pretty much all we have.
I understand why Shelton gets playing time in Vermes squad because he is good at high pressure, but he simply can’t cross or finish. It’s why we always win possession and lose games. We have always had a huge issue finishing chances. [Reply]

Russell being out has hurt us here.
They have done enough to get points its just rolling poorly for them. [Reply]
