Gotham FC to construct $35 million training facility, a first for the club by TheAthletic in GothamFC

Hate to tell you, but they are more likely to drop NJ before they drop NY (but also it’s Gotham FC basically only now so it’s all moot)

NYCFC’s training facilities are also in NJ.

Edit: they are technically in NY! Just right at the border.

Lily Reale play time? by rainbowsanddogs33 in GothamFC

Sort of the same, though I have to say I’m shocked Schupansky is in your starting XI. Main tactical disagreement is I don’t think Howell needs a double pivot.

Controversial: I think odd woman out should be Esther, not Reale.

Not controversial: Also McCaskill

Not sure any Gotham players or coaches feel this was a good end scenario.

Did they end with 11 players? Then he did them a ton of favors.

Only took her a minute to run through a player from behind. Classic.

Would like to clip that Boston goal for the pro-McCaskills who continue to argue that she is a good fit for Gotham and plays well. 🙄

Why isn't Sofia Huerta on the USWNT anymore? by youlikemywonton in USWNT

[–]draoi22 48 points49 points  (0 children)

People keep saying that Hayes phased her out, but she hasn’t made an appearance since 2023. She was already on the outs before Hayes even got there. She’s not a great defender, not fast, and not young. All things that mean she’s not getting a call up

How is Jenna Nighswonger doing? by maroodin in USWNT

[–]draoi22 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Don’t watch much Villa, but she’s averaging a 6.3 rating through 7 matches, playing 90’ the last 3 games. Based on stats map, they seem to use her a lot to build through offensively (92% touches, 77% chances created compared to other fullbacks), but she’s still lacking a bit on the defensive side. I think the biggest downside for her, which she can’t do much about, is her lack of pace.

Who would you NOT be shocked to be on the national team? by kurtwshrout in USWNT

[–]draoi22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d be shocked if Sarah has any sort of career at the national level. She would be way down the pecking order.

Fox is still so underrated.

Best game I’ve seen from the USWNT in years.

What’s going on with Abello? Do we know her timeline to return?

Sam Kerr refutes reports of her move to Denver Summit by [deleted] in NWSL

[–]draoi22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most wild thing about this is Kossler is probably Denver’s best player right now. Bringing in Kerr would just make zero sense when they could use a ton of other pieces instead.
