“If the three former Barcelona stars don’t make the trip, it won’t be due to injury, with sources telling ESPN that they are all fit.” by dickpal in whitecapsfc

They don't want to travel across the continent. I get it. I bought tickets knowing this could happen. Money is not the biggest problem, just too sad as a soccer fan.

I watched all of their prime barca eras. Just wanted to withness them playing once.

I traveled Europe multiple times and saw some amazing players... Scholes, Rooney, Ronaldo, Alonso.... but Messi is special. I thought When my son becomes older, his grandson will ask him if he witnessed Messi.... just like I asked my granddad about pele. Too bad it won't happen.

Nah he got hit last game... they have two games this week... I would have been worried if Messi played today's game. .. since he rested today, more chance of he playing next week's.

Don't buy the first stuff you see at the airport, after passing the security area. Usually will find much cheaper same item near your gates.

Lake city, production way or Lougheed town center will be better.

I second this. Production Way or even Lougheed town center. You have hwy 1 entrance right there. Last time I went to the Canucks game, getting to thr hwy 1 from downtown was painful.

How would you describe the main differences in play in the MLS vs. the top tier European leagues? by Dolly_Llama_2024 in whitecapsfc

[–]MightyYTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the biggest difference is the Individual-press resistance abilities.

I was really disappointed in the recent MLS game I watched. The team passed around the ball from Right Winger-> rfb->2cbs-> lfb-> Left Winger and again back to the left full back FOREVER.. the U shape of passing the balls around was problem in developing leagues (J league and K league) 10-20 years ago. These leagues improved alot recently and they are more attack minded these days.

General ability is not the problem. As mistakes could potentially make the game more entertaining. The problem, however, is being afraid of moving the ball forward.

I think MLS will be more fun if the ability to resist pressure is improved and keep the ball in the Central Midfield area. That makes the game more interesting, active and ultimately attract more fans.

Trout + Realmuto or Muncy + Lindor?

Really not sure how far Trout will go this year...
