tho I'm weirdly happy the Fire gave Utd their toughest test against MLS opposition even if it was partly due to weather

Carles must not rly follow MLS or else he'd know the trend is now buying up younger South American rising stars, using DP status to pay their transfer fees, and reaping the benefits of winning/selling down the road.

ahahaha marquez you dick
Speaking through an interpreter after New York's dismal 3-1 loss to Real Salt Lake on Wednesday, Marquez criticized his teammates, saying they were not on his level."I'm focusing on really performance at my highest level. That doesn't mean that the whole backline can perform at that same level, so that’s a problem," Marquez told the NYDailyNews.com. "I think this is a team game and unfortunately there isn't an equal level between my teammates and I."

I caught the end of that game. Thierry Henry looks thoroughly bored with football.

imho this kind of thing shows just how much careful team-building matters in the league over outright spending. Salt Lake have been v solid top-to-bottom for a few years now and RBNY is a bit of hodge-podge with a couple of very shiny expensive parts.

nice article about mls supporters http://espn.go.com/sports/soccer/news/_/id/6992816/major-league-soccer-move-soccer-moms-league-hard-core-fan-groups-here-stay
I have to say I hate most teams and fans from philadephia but the Sons of Ben seem pretty cool.
The SoB started showing up at other MLS teams' games, singing to New York Red Bulls fans that even without a team they had just as many trophies as they did.
― mizzell, Monday, 26 September 2011 18:50 (twelve years ago) link
Oh kay. I realize that article is "about" the SoB but every other team with an active/promoted supporter's group at least got named...except literally not one mention of the ESC? Which is the oldest supporter's group in the league. It's fine, my club experience does not depend on articles like that, but it's weird unless it was purposeful.
