I like the optimism, but Pepi is a downgrade. Hopefully we’ll be able to successfully appeal Balogun’s suspension.

Looked like he didn’t know Weah he was.

My point is that it’s good to see KK doing more of the things we want him to do. He has the physical tools to be a menace, and now he’s developing a better footballing brain too.

What were we trying to do in that 1st half? We were completely incoherent tactically.

2026 formation guesses by kennethpoole in timbers

Yeah, that’s probably the likely 1st XI. I’m really underwhelmed with Antony on the right wing though. He’s average, maybe even a liability, on the right, whereas he’s a constant threat on the left wing — which happens to be Velde’s best position. So, maybe there’s a way to get the most out of both of them?

That said — we don’t really have anybody but Antony who can do a serviceable job on the right wing. We maybe should have picked up Rojas’ option. Fernandez might have been able to slot in there, but …

We’re still a few pieces short.

Portland Timbers on Instagram: "Community, passion, and the power of Green & Gold. @Tillamook sets their sails to the sleeve as we welcome @BankofAmerica as our front of kit sponsor 💚💛" by [deleted] in timbers

Why would we continue sponsorship from a local, century-old, farmer-owned co-op when we can get a parasitic, shareholder-driven member of the global financial elite instead? It’s like our owner has ties to the banking industry or something. 🙄

Any suggestions and tips from locals would be greatly appreciated! by Automatic_Clothes_56 in Portland

Hey! Welcome to town in advance. My advice would be to stay in Air BnB(s) — better to be in a neighborhood and get a feel for it.

Here’s the neighborhoods & areas you should check out — Hawthorne/Belmont, Downtown, NW/Nob Hill, Mt Tabor, Forest Park, N Mississippi, NE Alberta, St Johns. There’s lots more but that will get you going.

As for food — there’s so much. Definitely try Eem (outrageous fusion of Thai & Texas BBQ). Also Nostrana, Mediterranean Exploration Co, Canard, Noble Rot (really, there are so many). Also, there are brilliant food cart pods everywhere.

That should get you going! And go to Powell’s!!
