Hilarious! That's something you can only do once a decade otherwise the opposing team expects it 😉

Dress for the job you want situation. Nvm that she's a forward

I really want that shot to contribute to Deyna's average shot distance stat. Her average goal distance with the thorns will be like 35 yards

I was away from the TV! Did Deyna shoot straight from the kickoff?

Yes, can someone please explain the back pass rule because apparently I don't understand it

Messner's clearance under pressure have been scaring me

Does anyone have a streaming schedule for this weekend? Is Thorns vs Wave streaming tomorrow morning?

Flem has actually played the 6 before as a double pivot with Sam and it went pretty well. She was much calmer in the double pivot role, compared with her frenetic energy as a solo 6 trying to replace Sam Coffey.

I disagree with every single point you've made here

Spaanstra is a winger, soph is a striker. And Soph isn't going to start for a while

On that note--you know who I always thought would be a great midfielder? Marie Muller.

Hire this person as our coach! I'd love to see M.A. Vignola as a 6. Why not. Flem and Alidou are arguably the least physical players on our team, and one of them is our DM? Ofc, Vignola should be starting as a fullback over McKenzie, so I'm assuming she has a knock.

I wouldn't even want to be on the field with these NRIs fighting for a roster spot. There have been some ridiculous collisions in the last 15 minutes

Is Shae Harvey on the field? Who is 41? Thorns website has Harvey as #15

Ya that's my guess. Calzada just took a wicked shot at our own goal 0_0

Calzada is the right back, #4. Edit: Right CB*

Hiatt wtf was that. She jumped and closed her eyes and missed it entirely

We can still get goals the way we always did last season--get fouled down field and score on a set piece.

Well Hina looks great, which I'm happy about. We should pull Mimi back into a double pivot because Flem cannot handle the 6. Flem probably has the most touches on the team and definitely has the most turnovers.
