    Time to Show Our Mettle

    Behind a goal in the C/L - facing two extremely tough back to back fixtures in the P/L... this is it! Time for us to show our mettle - or to go away losers in one or both of the competitions we most want to win. Pep will provide the steady hand - emotional support and drive - it's now up to or...

    US Politics - The Green New Deal

    The Green New Deal: https://www.gp.org/green_new_deal I admire and am in favor of many of the aims of this proposal - but at the same time, it's a wholly unworkable proposition and any Green New Deal candidate running against Trump in 2020 will - IMO - be soundly defeated. Meanwhile, if a...

    2019 Summer Window - Whom do we Need ? - Whom will we Sign?

    In the 2019 window - what are our needs? Whom will we sign? Our defense isn't rock solid, Aguero is aging, we have no like-backup for Fernandinoho. In short- we could easily improve at many positions. So... whom do you think we'll sign/persue heavily in the 2019 summer window?

    No PL Officials at the World Cup

    Well, at least FIFA got that right. Officiating in the PL has been dreadful this past year.

    Who Will Win the World Cup?

    This cup, I can't tell. Brazil is my slight favorite pick due to form in an extremely tough qualifying confederation. Most talented though - France by far - but entirely inconsistent. Surprise comeback team - Spain, really impressive. More than enough talent to win - Belgium - but even more...

    ESPN's Assessment of Our Season

    http://www.espn.com/soccer/english-premier-league/23/blog/post/3498871/premier-league-manchester-city-top-of-the-class-chelsea-and-arsenal-flop A thoughtful, balanced, analysis of our season. I'm not the biggest fan of ESPN - but they're spot-on with this post. Hopefully those in the UK can...

    Ian Darke - Do You Rate Him?

    I absolutely do not. He's a regular for US MNT broadcasts - partnered typically with Taylor Twellman. In such partnerships, Twellman will often need to step in to correct some erroneous comment by Darke. Moreover, Darke's narrative is just disjointed. For example, in the SKY BT broadcast of...

    Why Are We So Much Better Than Last Year?

    At first blush, it's our signings. New goalie - Ederson Two new backs, and backup - Walker, Mendy, Danilo Another quality attacking midfielder/winger - B. Silva ========== Yet... Mendy is injured. Danilo doesn't play that often. B. Silva doesn't play that often and has not adapted to the P/L...

    Pep's Attacking Strategy - City versus B/M versus Barca

    I'm interested in hearing from long time followers of Pep, how his tactics have adjusted across the teams he has managed. For sake of this thread, let's start with Barca. Moderators - this thread is not "Pep's performance" - I'm not interested in performance - I'm interested current strategy...

    USA Commentators and WC 2018

    Fox network has broadcast rights in the US for the 2018 World Cup. And for me - and I think a large segment of US football fans - that's really bad news. Fox seems intent on building a bigger American audience for "soccer" - and for them, part of that recipe is having a US announcer and a US...

    Bernardo Silva Must Start

    Bernardo Silva is simply amazing - his touch is world class, he never loses the ball, his football intelligence is awesome, his movement is amazing - always on the move getting into open spaces - in short, for me, Bernardo Silva simply must start every meaningful game we play. ======= Well...
