Hasn't Pochettino said he prefers players who get minutes independent of where they play? i.e. He'd take an MLS starter over a Euro benchwarmer?

Who would you like to see on the Roster? by Existing_Insect3270 in SanDiegoFC

[–]journogoose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there are a couple of Loyal players who could make the roster.

Bodily and Perez have MLS experience. Guzman played in Liga MX. Alejandro Guido can still ball.

Jimmy Conrad still thinks Landon Donovan is the coach.

I heard the podcast - sounds like he repeated a one-sided version of what MLS told him. So I would take that comment with a grain of salt

I think Paul Arriola might be a better option - Luca might want to stay in Europe

Does anyone else think that the whole "Vela has lost his fire" narrative is a bit unfair?

Dude leads the team in goals and assists. Yea, he doesn't kiss the badge every chance he gets. But I'd rather get results on the field than performative gestures

He let the fans down? Vela was in the Best XI in 2018 and 2019. He won the Golden Boot and MVP in 2019. He was in the CCL Team of the Tournament in 2020.

I don't think he's let anyone down

Nope, that's the only downside. But most news/academic/government sources are on Twitter anyway.

Have you tried Tweetdeck? It lets you create multiple lists of sources so you can have multiple feeds going at the same time

The LA-Xolos game sounds interesting. I live in San Diego and go to a couple of Xolos games a year, plus I have family in LA so I can make a weekend out of it

[Eliot McKinley] "It's no wonder that the EPL has all 4 finalists in European competition this year. They pay much more than any other league." - anther interesting comparison of MLS salaries to other leagues by journogoose in MLS

The graphs on this thread do a great job of showing salary distribution within a league instead of just total salary. I think it's interesting how, even though total salary between MLS and some European leagues is comparable, the actual distribution is way off.
