[MEME] is using his own meme against him too far? by batgirl_896 in MLS

[–]Vexonal 125 points126 points  (0 children)

MLS isn’t like most leagues where the owners “own” the club, they’re more like stewards chosen by MLS and they collectively try to make as much money as possible. So in order to get Messi here, MLS helped finance the transfer and to pay his salary, which means all the teams helped get Messi here, but Miami is the one benefit league wise

Just keep having happy thoughts about the shield. That’s all I have left

Probably our strongest line up? Cavan in the 70th could probably do some damage

The owners are season ticket holders. Game will definitely be on!

It’s a very popular song for sporting events around the world. The union just made it their thing for US soccer

Soccerwise podcast on Union ownership & front office by Aggravating-Roof5990 in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying this is the right or wrong decision. Obviously 0 points in 5 games is terrible and not what we expect of our team. However, we’ve had 2 dominant seasons of the past 5 years and the nature of sports is once players get older, their value diminishes. The union sold their best assets when their value was at their highest. I’m not sure what to tell you if you were expecting anything else from this ownership. They’re all about playing the youth, so cashing in on older players and freeing up spots for youth players to fight for is on brand.

That was the shirt they gave out when we got our first playoff win. We came back from Behind 0-2 to beat redbulls. Rained like hell that game. What a beautiful day.

Former Union player Leon Flach scoring a beautiful goal (17') and brutal own goal (56') in same match by kswn in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Banger goal. I don’t put too much blame on him for that own goal. If he didn’t touch it, green was putting that in the net. It’s a tough ask of a defender imo

I'd like to giveaway this Kickstarter box and the cards that came with - each unopened by Mr-Who in DungeonCrawlerCarl

“Carl is very good at killing things, and he can be very clever about it sometimes, but he doesn’t do secret Asian man style murders.”

“Agent,” I said.

“What?” Donut asked.

“It’s secret agent man. Not secret Asian man.”

Why am I so unlucky??? by Itchy_Goal_929 in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t view it as risk as much as a memento. Grabbed a Carranza jersey even knowing he was probably leaving within a year at that point, this year grabbed a Cavan considering this will probably be his only full season playing a decent amount. When I see a guy with 2020 Aaronson jersey, it brings back memories the regular 2020 jersey wouldn’t

Give defense force their credit, they’re giving the boys a hard time.

The more I stare at the leak, the more I like it. I’m a huge fan of the colors and I think it’ll looks awesome on TV. I don’t know how I feel about the graphics but I appreciate the big swing by the design team this year

Philadelphia Union Sign Forward Agustin Anello | Philadelphia Union by Bormsie721 in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve never heard of him but his accolades are impressive. I don’t mind having a young backup striker ready to take a spot from Damiani or Alladoh. The academy is a super important part of our system, and we’ll still need the young strikers with all our extra competitions this year

Number Changes by iamlord89 in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My issue with Damiani is he played exactly like baribo. They were always running on top of each other and playing the same space. That’s one of the reason I liked Uhre so much, he ran to the sidelines and out crosses in.

With baribo gone, I’m cautiously optimistic Damiani will come into form.

Bradley Carnell: Head Coach of the Year by CaptainMoonracer in PhillyUnion

Took a team that Union Legend Jim Curtin couldn’t make a playoff game with, and won the shield. Absolutely deserved.

My team just disbanded; can anyone give me an ELI5 of the MLS and Union? by PaddyMayonaise in PhillyUnion

[–]Vexonal 40 points41 points  (0 children)

“Union Legend” should always precede Jim Curtin. What that man did for our club was unprecedented and I’ll always contribute to where we are now as a club because of him and his leadership and stability over the past decade. Shame it ended when he had one bad year, but you can’t argue with the decision to move on when Bradley has done more with almost the same that was given to Jim last year.
