SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Idc man I’m on the hype train for this version of the US. So much sauce and they’re treating these friendlies like WC games I’ve never seen anything like it. Much more likeable than the Pulisic/McKennie generation too 120
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Look I don’t watch training but it seems crazy to me to just drop Yeimar back into the lineup at this point but it seems like the consensus among the people who cover the team is that he should obviously go straight back into the lineup 221
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I would guess that 43 combined shots last night is the most that have ever occurred in a 90 minute Sounders game (2019 playoffs vs Dallas probably had more, but in 120 minutes) 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The idea that Jordan doesn’t “deserve“ a DP contract is a bit crazy. 2026 is the first year where he hasn’t seemed to improve as a player and after looking washed against Portland he’s returned from this injury playing the best ball of his life and he’s picked up more new abilities 120
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 02/10/2026A couple other thoughts: -If I were Raphael Wicky, I would have simply not subbed out my two best players for Shapi Suleymanov with 12 minutes to play 100
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 02/10/2026The other issue with press baiting is that it requires Jackson Ragen to sometimes try to eliminate an attacker on the dribble which is just a terrible idea 110
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I’m not sure why the Sounders spent so much of the first half press baiting in that game when you have Moose and Arriola on the field, both of whom are terrible outlets, and those SKC CBs are so bad with the ball. Just high press! 120
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Season grades so far: Thomas: A Frei: B- Ragen: D Yeimar: F Kim: D Hawkins: A Sailor: F Lopez: B Nouhou: D Alex: A Kossa-Rienzi: B+ Kingston: A- Roldan: C- Dotson: C- Brunell: C Petkovic: D- Rusnak: C- De la Vega: F Ferreira: D Arriola: C- Rothrock: B- Moose: D DeRo: D- Morris: D Joveljic: B 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 28/09/2026So far there’s a pretty clear cutoff at 7.5 starters. From 7 or fewer to 8 or more starters there is a big jump in PPG and xGD. Above that, there is another jump from 9 to 10 starters, but only in PPG, not xGD! 011
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 28/09/2026One interesting thing I’m finding is that stronger lineups (featuring more starters) tend to outperform xG and weaker lineups underperform. This only holds for xGF, not xGA. I’m only through 2018 at this point. 110
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I’m going back thru and trying to create some kind of history of player availability for the Sounders and the comparisons between this year and 2015 seem legit. 2015 had an outrageous amount of missed time by the best players on the team 110
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Since we signed Joveljic… When Joveljic plays: 1.00ppg When Joveljic doesn’t play: 3.00ppg We need to have a serious conversation about Gregg Waibel 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I’m sure I have some terrible predictions from February but the pundits revising their official predictions to move Toronto up several spots after they signed Sargent was funny and I’m doing a victory lap over not joining the herd 030
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yeimar has looked basically cooked in 4 of his last 5 appearances. I’m really not sure it makes sense to put him in games when we have so many other CBs who can do a job 120
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Nouhou would be so good if he just worked on his passing, dribbling, shooting, crossing, tackling, intercepting, speed, fitness, work rate, combination play, vision, and decision making 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I know it’s a friendly so I’m fine with it there but in a real game Hall has to sell out to get to that, no? 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 26/09/2026We just ended a club record winless run at home against a team who is also on a club record winless run. We have 8 points from 14 matches. And suddenly there is some huge push to exonerate the Sounders FO 290
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Watching weekend highlights and Phil Neville’s first reaction to a foul 2 yards inside the penalty area is “That was outside!“ 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026RSL fans being mad that they gave us Danny Musovski is funny 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026RSL is not a serious team. This is the second time in 3 seasons they had an electric team for the first part of the season before selling a key player and collapsing 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I know there’s no relegation in MLS but if you let Nouhou score a free kick against you I feel like you’d get relegated anyway 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Stu Hawkins is another player who needs to start 220
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026We don’t get that goal without Jordan on the pitch 040
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Really fun how we’ve had like 4 blatant penalties not awarded during this streak 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026This is by far the best game I’ve seen Arriola play 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Another moment where Nouhou doesn’t lock down the left side like he’s supposed to 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The Sounders commentors want us to shoot from distance like Ozzie Alonso used to you can’t be serious 100
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Can we sub Jordan or Caden in for Nouhou right now? 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Gary is pivoting to right wing podcast grifting. who possibly could have seen it coming? 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 21/09/2026The level of the PL right now is unbelievable only 3 teams have won a majority of their games 5 weeks in 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I have yet to see an angle that convinces me the ball goes in and this one almost has be convinced that it didn’t go in. Not sure how you can criticize the VAR here. The issue is MLS being cheap with camera angles 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The other thing to note is that this is the third time in 5 games where the team has played better after the match entered the tactics-free zone. The opposite happened in the Chicago game 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I do think it’s true that Nouhou’s defensive mistakes get spotlighted more than the mistakes from others. But this is fair, as his defensive capabilities are ostensibly the reason he is on the field at all. 120
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The Arriola-Gomez pairing on the left is so much better than Nouhou-Morris. No reason to do Nouhou-Morris ever again 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Who needs patterns of play or xG when you can just have a go 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026First time Colorado has scored 3 goals since April 11th 020
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Cristian is really putting the “mid” in midfielder today 030
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026That might be the first time I’ve seen Arriola complete a cross 010
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Committing a foul as an attacker on an attacking set piece should get you airdropped into an active volcano 000
SorryImAnonymous @sorryimanonymo1.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I like Alex and Hawkins as CBs but neither of them is able to replace Yeimar’s stepping into midfield when the pivots are pushed high. Ragen isn’t too helpful here and neither was 2025 Yeimar tbh 220
Reposted by SorryImAnonymousRyan Jackson: ‘oh god I’ve made so many mistakes.’ @bigpossumjamboree.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Every game I’m so sure that this is gonna be the one where the big turnaround begins. Every game I’m googling ‘best place to buy fentanyl near me’ by the fifteen minute mark. 121
