New York City FC

Finished 1-1. Great result given the circumstances. Ended up playing nearly half an hour with 9 men.

Pogba could learn a thing or two from that BWP interview.
Accountability AND passion! You know he's pissed and actually cares enough to do something about it. The crazy thing is BWP didn't even say anything particularly special, just what Pogba did plus emotion!


Anyway, what a shitshow. The referees are still surprising me with their ineptitude, and I've been watching enough MLS long enough to be accustomed to it and yet..


Credit to them, they showed great spirit and belief in playing the same way even with 9 men. A bit more focus and they could have even won it. I was even close to saying this was the first game without a Johnson error it was that good, until that late spill.


Another point, you can see the gulf in class in terms of the approaches. NYCFC at least try to play a modern way and that's what kept them in it towards the end I think.


Also, just a reminder of where Red Bulls are from on the Yankees screen pre-match, a few here would appreciate if we did it with United:

Cheeky dig at the Red Bull group from the City Group fans. It says "Red Bull Gives You Wings" with the crests of former clubs RedBull took over imprinted on gravestones, having killed to plaster their logo over. ..

Just to not get hammered against them is a good result. Red Bull always seem to give City a proper seeing too.

Watching DC v NYCFC atm, 1 - 0 down, Pubehead scored for DC.

Very frustrating team NYCFC, not started and just dont look strong enough but amazingly they are 3rd.

Edit: 2-0 to DC....switching over to the Milan derby as NYCFC dont look arsed to me.

Can you take back Dome and give us Arteta? Please with cherry on top?

Gave up after 5 minutes. Like you say, don't look bothered.

What a poor performance.

Been a real struggle the last few months.
