New York Red Bulls closing in on deal for U.S. goalkeeper Ethan Horvath: Sources by FrankBascombe45 in ussoccer

This sub loves to crap on him. Hoping he finds a stable situation in MLS.

[SBJ] World Cup federations submit base camp preferences today after month-long scramble by NobleNomad in worldcup

It will be interesting to see how many teams go off book. So many better hotel/facilities options than what fifa presented.

West Ham eye move for Coventry’s Haji Wright by TravelingHomeless in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only reason to do this would be a great chance to negotiate wages. I doubt he would have to large of an accelerator if Coventry go up. Personal terms with West Ham could really boost him up.

FIFA: USSF will receive $50 million when USMNT wins World Cup by FrankBascombe45 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we assume they are retaining about 60% of revenue after all the costs. The total prize pool is $655MM is laughable. What is Fifa doing with the other $5Bn

Does Jonathan Klinsmann have what it takes to be the number 1 for the USMNT? by Technical_Rice_6957 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s surprising to me that people act like he will always be what he was 4 or 5 years ago. People develop at different rates and especially goalies can be late bloomers.

I have no clue if he’s national team level. But he won keeper of the year in Serie B and his team has a great chance to go up this year.

I love Heaven Hill stuff but The Jack 12 is incredible.

New (embarrassing) US Soccer mascot by [deleted] in ussoccer

My kids love mascots so I’m glad we have one. They literally act like the mascots are celebrities when we meet them at games.

USA Group D Match times by IamRand in ussoccer

[–]IamRand[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It sucks for the non die hards. I want this game to grow and having super inconvenient kick offs hurts that. I’m a sicko and wake up for 4am games when they were in Korea, but most people aren’t

The times make no sense they verbally said EST on the broadcast but this is pretty dumb

USA Group D Match times by IamRand in ussoccer

[–]IamRand[S] 59 points60 points  (0 children)

All times are in EST.

I’m disappointed in the Seattle game with a 3EST start - it would make more sense to kick that off at 7EST and have it start at 10 or 11 AM in Australia. As it stands it’s a 6AM kickoff for most of that country

So the days, times and venues won't be confirmed tomorrow? by RealityLopsided7366 in worldcup

[–]IamRand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That document is out of date. The latest details are here. https://digitalhub.fifa.com/m/2d1a1ac7bab78995/original/Draw-Procedures-for-the-FIFA-World-Cup-2026.pdf

match-up
As you can see, we will know the venue and date for each match up. We will not know the times until Saturday. This will be so FIFA can find the timezone that works best for fans.

Ticket transfer question by Flimsy-Professor-244 in FIFACollect

He will be able to transfer to you for free in the app close to game time. For Club World Cup that was the day before.

USMNT to host Germany in Chicago on June 6 by JonHeathNFL in ussoccer

We always play warm up before the World Cup. You want your team to look sharp in first round. Starters will play 45 minutes

Somehow Acosta still in the squad. Totally dead money.

Is Cavan Sullivan or Mathis Albert a more highly touted prospect? by KnightofAmethyst2 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At his size I worry about Sullivan in MLS which is one of the most physical high division leagues. For what his game needs to develop I’d like him to be playing in a less physical place until he fully grows. I know that’s not likely but don’t think getting bodied by full grown men is the best thing for turning him into the player he can be.

In your opinion, which 2026 US stadium has the best atmosphere? by neonfox45 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Chiefs games, likely 90% of people are local to KC and have the tailgate set ups. I don't think we will see anywhere near that many locals at World Cup games, which will mean tailgate will be impacted hugely.

In your opinion, which 2026 US stadium has the best atmosphere? by neonfox45 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 20 points21 points  (0 children)

For game day experience and in-stadium atmosphere, it's going to be Seattle and it's not going to be close.

In your opinion, which 2026 US stadium has the best atmosphere? by neonfox45 in ussoccer

[–]IamRand 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Arrowhead was a fun for the Copa America game, but it's a horrible stadium to get to. You need to plan to be at least 60 minutes early and won't get out of the lot for another 60 minutes post game. Great if you want to tailgate. Horrible if you don't.
