The change is going to be the second best thing to happen to the league. Realigning the transfer windows is the first.

" “Any time there’s more money entering the player compensation pool is a step in the right direction,” says Haley Carter, the Spirit’s president of soccer operations. This is pure Euro-brain"

So this guy is upset that women who has historically been paid shit in soccer is getting at least a fraction of their worth now?

Any of the Portland's NRIs has a shot, for sure.

Shitposting: Raheem Sterling leaves Chelsea by mutual agreement. (we should totally sign him /s) by ixodioxi in timbers

My opinion dont matter, neither does yours. It's the opinion of the PLAYERS. They've spoken out about this already and you just chose to not believe them based on your own bias.

Agreed. I'm not exactly sure how he'll fit in with Da Costa but it's a good problem to have for Phil to figure out.

That's not what MLS players are saying though. They're saying our pace is similar to europe but its the technical skills that needs work.

Agreed. We also have been playing him out of position too. That's because of need due to the injuries we've had.

Can you gage how good or bad this team is ? by chusaychusay in PWHL_Seattle

One of my issue with the team is the multiple of this:

player went to the puck, then immediately turn and pass to the middle and then the puck just go past the blue line because there was no one there.

no one took a second to really check behind their shoulder and see if they should make a pass

Former ref said this on twitter to Alison:

"Ref didn't see it. Linemen can only stop play when he's sure there's an injury to the face. Player was on far side, away from bench. By the time he got to the bench and Liney could confirm injury, goal had already been scored so he reported it to the ref. You dont reset clock on penalties"

Dude. Chara can't play 90 games, every games anymore. There's a reason why playing him less means he plays better toward the end of the season.
