#RBNY can (and should) move on from both EMCM and Emil at the end of this season, Jorge can be bought down. But we know that this FO wont properly invest to make this team work Hall, Mehmeti, Donkor all possibly gone as well? Big offseason incoming, but this sucks right now

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Oh my word. A Robert Voloder sighting for #RBNY??? We really must be down BAD

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Multiple misses from key players at close range, down off a goal against from a set piece. Sums up #RBNY season pretty well tbf

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

So, I guess #RBNY didnt learn much about successfully dealing with set pieces. Cool. Great. Fun. At least no one is there to see this nonsense in person

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Hate that all my friends from #AllforCity are the enemy today. VAMOS METRO

The #USMNT kids (Hall, Albert, Mehmeti, Sullivan) are just loving life right now. Just kids having fun and soaking in every minute. Absolutely love it!!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Ref should just ed this. Its a friendly. No need to play anymore. Wont end well

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

#USMNT winning games on the backs of set pieces??? Someone show #RBNY pls. Maybe Hall and Memeti can teach them when they come back

020

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

So, this Cavan kid might be legit (he says for the 900th time in 4 games) #USMNT have a good one I think!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Berhalter once again a Top 3 player for #USMNT on the pitch tonight. Amazing to think he almost gave the game up a few years back. What a baller

030

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Westfield feels like he's a bit out of his element at this level right now. Needs a bit more time to develop. Heck of a finish to be fair for the Chilean

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

For all the good he does, Chris Brady continues to have moments like this that make me question his viability as the #USMNT #1. Makes an absolute meal of it and now we're level heading into the break. Sheesh

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

LETS GOOOOO SEBBY!!!! Super smart dummy from Hall #USMNT lead, though luckily so after Chile have been dangerous

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

It does still baffle me that we dont have a single defender in the #USMNT pool that can take Miles' spot as CB4. I know we have some injuries but still. Yikes

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

That's such a killer pass from Berhalter AGAIN Hall has to finish that Should be 1 nil #USMNT

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Hey y'all! Taking the week off for international break, but we'll be back next week with #USMNT thoughts and any more big #MLS news! Got something you want us to cover or see? Let us know! 👇️ See ya on Monday!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I thought that the whole #LAFC petition thing to get him fired was way too premature. But after the string of recent results, this doesn't surprise me. A club driven go be the best. They don't wait and pull the plug. Next hire will be very interesting...

010

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Still laughing that there are a handful of #USMNT Twitter people who think Sebby Berhalter only got this good since he went over to Boro. What a SCREAMER. Dude is SO GOOD

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Mehmeti enters for Tyler Adams. What a full circle moment for #RBNY academy. Constantly producing #USMNT level players, especially in the center of the park!

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

#RBNY FANS REJOICE!!! JULIAN HALL WITH HIS FIRST FOR #USMNT!! A classic Julian Hall goal, finding the dangerous spaces and getting the last touch.

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Totally not a pen, but we take it. Kids are alight for #USMNT!

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Campbell with highs and lows to start this one for #USMNT Great recovery to recovery the direct ball 2 minutes before he loses it dribbling out the back, eventually leading to the equalizer. Ebbs and flows. Need to learn

000

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

DREAM START FOR #USMNT DREAM START FOR JUSTIN ELLIS!!!! A deft little flick and right away he's got his first goal for the NT! This kid is going to be special. Love his game and well deserved!

2017 #TFCLive and 2023 #Crew96 were some of the most dangerous 5 at the back sides in #MLS history! Who would you rather have pulling the strings? Victor Vazquez or Alex Matan?? Video: youtu.be/dmGvq_s3XPw Audio: linktr.ee/thedppod

#RBNY have had some really fun teams in the past, but in a combined team from 2013 and 2018 who gets the nod at the 9? @BWPNINENINE or Thierry Henry??? Video: youtu.be/dmGvq_s3XPw Audio: linktr.ee/thedppod

Horvath is playing like the GK #RBNY needs going down the stretch. Bazan is massive in the back Another Clean Sheet Once again not pretty, but they get the job done and get over the line. ONWARDS

The Designated Players | An MLS Podcast @thedppod.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Had a feeling he would sign quick. #NYCFC defensive options were limited down the stretch and Miazga will provide a boost Going to the cross town rivals of the boy hood club that developed him is certainly a choice. The FCC playoffs left him few #RBNY fans but this would seal it
