I know everything is subjective and more stadiums are coming, but for me, and I’ve said it a hundred times: TQL will forever be my número 1 undefeated. It’s perfect. From every aspect, fan experience to work navigation, movement, access. Also their staff & media team are A+, 10/10, 5-stars.

If you’re gonna go on a 2 month hiatus — may as well score a shitload of goals and give your fans just a rad night. Well done, FC. Well done.

FC Cincinnati has invested a DP, a max-TAM, and a U22 spot on the CB position for their 2026 squad. None are starting tonight.

It worked because it allowed other people to be successful too, not just Lucho doing everything by himself. Think more Steph Curry on the Warriors and less Micheal Vick at Virginia Tech.

The Chief @thechief.bsky.social · 10/03/2026

They need to consider switching to a 4-3-3. Put Ender and Ramirez up top with Denkey as wingers. Figure out your LB/RB situation with some combo of Smith / Powell / Obi / Teenage. Or, go to a 3-5-1-1 with Dado playing under Denkey to force Kevin further up the pitch. Something has to change.

The Chief @thechief.bsky.social · 10/03/2026

The problem with @fccincinnati.com is that they’re playing a system that simply does not work (and has never worked) without Lucho Acosta on the field. It didn’t work when Lucho was hurt / mentally checked out. It hasn’t worked with Lucho gone from the team. It won’t work with anyone else.

This is the same team @fccincinnati.com team as last year and the year before. So yeah, all that offseason talk from Albright about refreshing the approach was absolute bullshit.

The Chief @thechief.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

Matt Miazga being back for @fccincinnati.com is huge if for no other reason than this team desperately needs a prick / instigator on the field to keep the energy high.

The Chief @thechief.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

Odd / interesting observation regarding the start of the @mls.bsky.social season -- Home teams are dominating bigly. This weekend, the only road teams to win were playing against home teams that picked up a red card.

I eagerly await PRO’s condemnation of the behavior as legitimizing violence and harassment against referees.

. @fccincinnati.com — The Morning After™️: - Multi-goal win? At TQL? Didn’t know that was legal. - Co-MOTM honors to Miles / Nick / Teenage for absolutely stifling defense (and a goal). - Kevin should have had 3. Gotta clean the finishing up. - Fingers crossed for Evander now.

This line ought to set off a huge alarm at MLS HQ: "The Loons were negotiating transfer deals with Slovenian midfielder Tomi Horvat and Dutch defender Cherrion Valerius, but both players cited concerns about life in Minnesota for them and their families as why they declined contracts with MNUFC."

Sure. But that’s also true comparing the NBA to Euro club basketball or the SEC to the MAC in football, etc. These Euro super clubs don’t have to choose between skill and athleticism — they can have both with the money they spend.

As a pathway to getting into the CWC? Begrudgingly, yes.

I can't emphasize enough how much I've enjoyed the Club World Cup as a neutral. It's given cities and communities around the world a chance to be on the world's stage. I need @fccincinnati.com to be a part of this in 4 years.

#USMNT - Saudi note: This is the US pass map. Not quite the horseshoe of sadness, but it's adjacent. At the risk of oversimplifying things... they're not getting the ball into the areas where goals are scored with any sort of regularity. That's more useful than completing 300 zillion safe passes

Seen a ton of Pachuca fans wandering around downtown Cincinnati this afternoon. Pretty rad, NGL. Talked to one who was up from Miami staying with a friend who is an FCC STH. I wish FIFA had done a better job promoting this tourney and pricing the tickets.

Santos remains a black hole on offense and no threat to score. Denkey hopefully offers more in the 2nd half.

The Chief @thechief.bsky.social · 30/03/2025

Up and down first 45’ — one moment of brilliance from Evander is all he needs to keep it level. The offense needs to generate better chances in open play. 3 still a realistic goal.
