Why do so many coaches play it so conservatively these days when deciding whether or not to play with attacking midfielders? I get that the pressing game is super super impo'tant nowadays, but shouldn't world class coaches be able to get the balance in the midfield right when it matters?

A serious topic among fans on the internet, maybe...but the impetus to consider what would be a fairly radical change is actually coming from the ownership group for the first time and I think there's a good chance it happens.

Nah, this is really not it

What are you talking about. It wasn't an MLS game. The ref wasn't even from MLS

The league wouldn't be seriously considering it if so many owners were outright opposed to the idea.

year will tell them how feasible it is. If it's 6 weeks on both sides, that's probably not doable in the long term. If it's 3 weeks each in december and february, and MLS bakes in a couple of postponed games a season, it's probably worth it imo

MLS already plays games in December and February, though. For the coldest markets, they'll be able to schedule a certain amount of away dates during the worst months of the year. So their analysis of just how many weeks a team like Minnesota will have to play away from home to start and finish the

I dont amticipate thay being a common scenario if they go ahead with the schedule change. MLS is in all likelihood weighing the cost of having to reschedule some games every year. They already play games in the time of year when those temperatures are possible.

MLS will speak with each of it's teams and do the necessary research to find out exactly how big the sacrifices are and ultimately if the payout is worth it.

The US is a big country and there are admittedly some markets with extreme cold weather. I dont think it's as many as some make it out to be, but it's also not a situation that MLS can just ignore. I dont think it's feasible to have some teams go on a 6 week road trip to start every season, but

with the European rhythm.

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 13/02/2025

I dont think its as black and white. The question isn't whether or not MLS is going to play in the winter. The season already starts in February. It's really about if the league can handle a couple more winter games in each market and if it's worth the payoff of aligning the transfer windows

What would make it authentic?

Sometimes a lot of moves are in the works, but they need that one domino to fall

I'm sure some MLS clubs are interested, but there's very little chance he goes to Miami. They already have all of their DP slots filled

He and Djordje are gonna tear shit up

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 28/01/2025

He signed with the full team, not the academy

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

There's no way to know for sure. It's just going to have to be something where MLS looks at their market research and enough of the owners decide the pros outweigh the cons

And discussion about the tv show Chicago Fire!

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

I think all the owners are willing to grow investments in the league to make it on par with the NFL, they're just content with it taking 30 years to get there.

We're not alone! There's Ireland, Australia, South Africa, Canada....

The Rapids must have collected the last draft pick with this one.

Neymar is considering playing in a handful of countries. If he goes anywhere else besides MLS nobody is going to claim those leagues are retirement leagues.

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 16/01/2025

Didn't they just free up a DP slot by trading Campana?

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 15/01/2025

Re-signed. Resigned means the opposite!

Bob-zinho @nicebobz.bsky.social · 15/01/2025

MLS steps it up every year. It's just not as much as people want.

He's saying there wouldnt have been a war if Russia was simply allowed to take Ukraine freely and that we made a huge mistake in fighting against Putin this whole time
