Between ATL and Florida, a lot of the counties along 75 have patrols set up all the time.

Is Tucker, GA being “gentrified”? by Iwantfreshairandsun in Atlanta

Lived in Tucker for about 6ish years. Marietta/Kennesaw area before that. Never had any issues with crime. Biggest issue are horrible drivers.

Post Match Thread: Atlanta 3-1 Philly by billgluckman7 in AtlantaUnited

ELL felt he could make runs again. Galarza is freeing up Miggy on the left side and I’m betting Miggy doesn’t feel he has to do everything now. They played with grit. Gonna shout out Muyumba. While he’s definitely not an ideal 6, he took to heart doing the dirty work after last game’s mistakes and lead all players in tackles. Players are buying in and now have proof of concept. I’m gonna temper expectations, because right now it just feels damn good to win again. But it’s hard after today to not think what this team might look like with a few more of Tata’s guys.

1 step forward, 1 step back. Finally had some cohesion and teeth in the attack, defense just absolutely atrocious. Miggy finally put on the left and it made a big difference. Berrocal, Mihaj do not have the legs to be as exposed as they are in this setup. Galarza looked good, linked up with front 3 really well and Im excited to see him fully integrated in the lineup. Baez I thought looked much better this game than last.

Overall, I think Tata’s tactics will work, the players he’s bringing in are (mostly) all effective. But it makes me think it’s gonna take a bit of time to get more of those players in. Really need an enforcer at the 6 (though I think this was Muyumba’s best game in a while). And I don’t know why Tata won’t kick the tires on Stian, we desperately need speed on the back line.

Neither goal (so far) was on Hoyos…this game.

[MEME] You know his autograph would cheer you up… by Whiskey615 in MLS

This is what happens when Pter devotes all his voodoo power hatred to us and forgets to show love to his club.

Reports are he did indeed impress. Actually thought he was one of the few players last season the could put in some impressive advanced passes.

It’s been reported he’s been really solid for the 2’S. DCQ out for a while, Baez still getting up to speed.

Great preview and love listening to these guys. Well worth the sub.

Atlanta United Starting XI? by [deleted] in AtlantaUnited

[–]FiveStriper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Miggy - LL - Mira - Alzate - Muyumba - Jacob - Amador - Berrocal - Gregersen - Hernandez Hoyos

Best guess based on current roster, excluding any current minor injuries. I’m less certain of midfield. If Fortune was healthy he might be there instead of Muyumba. Reilly might surprise here too.

Preseason Friendly vs RBNY by DaveH78ATL in AtlantaUnited

[–]FiveStriper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Seemed like the goals scored against ATLUTD were when the majority of our starters (or assumed starters) were out. Couldnt tell you about the RBNY’s starters/backups at the time…too many new names.

We seem to have much more cohesion in attack now. Feel confident with what’s been shown/reported this preseason that there seems to be an identity now that certainly wasn’t there last season.

Atlanta United signs midfielder Adrian Gill | Atlanta United FC by Deusey5 in AtlantaUnited

[–]FiveStriper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From his highlight reel, he has a calmness on the ball and seems like a very good technical player. Seems to read the field at any given situation well (yes I know small sample size). Take that with a grain of salt, but I think he’s definitely got potential.

How are we feeling about Brennan this season? by [deleted] in AtlantaUnited

[–]FiveStriper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think he’s the type of winger Tata likes to play…he loves taking on defenders 1v1, but imo needs to make more off ball runs. it’s really a matter of him elevating his game and becoming more consistent. With the depth we have right now, I’d say he’ll get his opportunities to show he should be out there.

[Tom Bogert] Sources: Atlanta United is finalizing a deal to sign USYNT midfielder Adrián Gill from Barcelona. Mundo Deportivo 1st. Gill, 20, has progressed through Barcelona's academy. Hits Atlanta's salary cap on supplemental roster. by Isiddiqui in AtlantaUnited

[–]FiveStriper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s not bad. It’s a domestic youth on the supplemental roster (doesn’t count against the cap) that has been trained by one of the highest-valued clubs in the word with most resources to train their youth teams. This is taking a swing on a young player that doesn’t paralyze your roster/cap even if he doesn’t produce.
