This might be NBC’s worst single day of coverage since they got the EPL rights. From discussion in the studio of if City’s punishment will be “too harsh” to commentary staying silent for most of the match as they praise City’s play over and over. Cowards and willing sports-washers, all of them.

Unbelievable that it took Champion and Dixon 77 minutes to bring up the guilty verdict against Sham City on the American commentary. Almost as embarrassing as being a City supporter in denial. #LIVMCI

I guess the checks to ProRef are still clearing. Kavanaugh makes it even more obvious that Sham City’s money still talks. #LIVMCI

Absolutely no one should be surprised that the Sham City team buses took the back way in to Anfield to avoid the Liverpool supporters. Cheating cowards through and through. #LIVMCI

Pretty bad positioning from the keeper 😬

Are Martin, Declan, & Bruno not a functional midfield? Most assumed the Ødegaard / Bruno / Rice midfield would be our preferred one, but I’d prefer to never see a performance like that again. #arsecastextra

One off stinkers like that happen, and hooooo boy that was an all time stinker from literally everyone out there for Arsenal today. Write it off and on to the next, just wish it wasn’t to that bald-denier Hurzeler’s team. He’s insufferable.

This match reminds me a little of the United loss late last season. Hard to legislate for multiple outside of the box strikes that go in, but also feels like Arsenal are sleepwalking. #BHAARS

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 19/09/2026
Feel the same way, the midfield is unbalanced because Bruno is pushing up so much and isn’t shielding the back line (who also aren’t stepping up in his absence). Won’t be surprised if he’s hooked at half.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 19/09/2026
I get that no one gets good looks in the box against this Arsenal defense, but does every goal conceded have to be a banger from outside the box? All 3 goals in the league conceded this way and it’s getting old. #BHAARS

Foden definitely kicked out and earned his red, but how does VAR not at least send the ref to the monitor to look at the Bruno kick? #MUNMCI

While I do think a coach feigning getting mad over an opponent’s social media / hype video banter is silly, I’m still a card carrying member of team run it up on your rival whenever you can. It’s part of what makes rivalries fun & spicy.

Or when Rice is the only dude all season to be sent off for “delaying a restart” when he only nudged the ball an inch & the other side wasn’t trying to play fast, but the ref still “had no choice.” It’s always the inconsistency that drives everyone mad.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
I think it’s more the context of the Maguire handball last week, where he scored directly from it but it wasn’t called back, that leads to all the head loss. I get that there’s a technical difference between the two according to the rules but that rule distinction makes zero sense in reality.

What do you think is the deal with Gyökeres' playing time? Is he on his way out? Zero minutes in two matches is a big surprise, to say the least. #ArsecastExtra

Which seems more likely? - Rapids are taking a stupid and pointless risk with a certain transfer that they’re reportedly getting well over value on. -OR- - Rapids aren’t actually convinced that they are selling Navarro at this point so they’re going to continue to play him.

It may be an overpay, but if Navarro is a fit (as it appears he is) & continues to bang in goals (as he has for the past 3 seasons) I've got zero issue with it. #AllForCITY has billionaire owners, and if they want to open up the wallet and back Damet, more power to 'em.

With Joyner not making the bench again, does that suggest the club may be looking to move him after all, or is he still ill?

Oh man, losing Bürki but keeping his DP tag, that would be peak CITY. Please don't give Wray any ideas.

If Wray found someone to take on the albatross that is that Bürki contract, that would be the best work he's ever done.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 22/08/2026
Yes, Hartel transfer was a bigger own goal than this, but don't forget about giving Bürki a DP contract. That's the root of all the #AllForCITY roster problems.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 22/08/2026
This would have been so much easier to stomach in the offseason. Selling Hartel and now Löwen mid season, both for under value, really fees like the club giving up on this season.
010
Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 22/08/2026
Now what if I told you that Löwen wasn’t taking up a DP slot (Bürki & Holse are the only current #AllForCITY DPs) or an international roster slot (because he’s got a green card). Can you still make it make sense? Because I can’t.

Things will get ugly at Energizer tonight if the team plays like they did against Kansas. Houston will trounce that type of performance, and the fanbase will be ready to revolt after the transfer business thus far. #AllForCITY

Did anyone else notice how similar the #AllForCITY statements after the Klauss & Hartel sales were? TL;DR of both: we didn’t plan on this but hey, even though it clearly makes our team worse, at least we have more roster flexibility 🤷🏻‍♂️ Champions of roster flexibility, you’ll never sing that!
020
Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
I tend to agree, based on the information that is available right now. But can you imagine if the club knew Hartel was out the door, yet chose to keep his planned replacement AND the fanbase in the dark? Oof.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
This is basically the only question I want the media to ask Holse the next time he’s in a press conference. The answer will be VERY telling re: the whole Hartel mess.

Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
If #AllForCITY knew about this for months & only got under €1 million for him after months of work on a sale, to me, that's unacceptable. If Hartel switched up his stance last week & threatened to go on strike, when previously the club thought he would finish out the season, that's another story.
010
Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
If this was a last minute switch of stance by Hartel, I'm happy to put most of the blame on him, but the reporting seems to suggest otherwise. Just not sure why so many on here are in a rush to defend this #AllForCITY ownership / front office given their poor track record.
110
Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
Your "family emergency" speculation is undercut by the "months" Baker is reporting this has been going on. Both can't be true. Unless there was a recent development that changed things, & caused Hartel to switch his stance. Which is it: going on for months, or an emergency?
110
Lucas Ravenscraft @lravens.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
If what Baker says is true, and the club has known about this for "months," then it's not like this came out of nowhere, so I think there's plenty of blame to go around the FO for getting less than €1 million for him.

Hartel leaving is brutal for St. Louis City. Hartel leaving for pennies is even more brutal, given ownership’s general distaste for spending to this point. Task just got tougher for a sporting staff that’s done so much right this year.
