Couldn’t watch it until this morning. Greet match. So glad Weah started. Man of the match IMO.

Really dumb for McKennie to get himself booked. Needless. 

I disagree on McKennie. He was defending his teammate from another blatant attack from a Mexican player. I have ZERO issue with him doing that. It was stupid of Steffen to get booked for running 60 yards up the pitch to get into Rodriguez's face, but I'm good with what McKennie did.

McKennie got into it earlier as well. As a result the team doesn’t have him when he’s needed. Dumb. Let the ref do his job. Anyway, great result.

Yup. Every team needs a guy like McKinnie willing to stick his nose in there.  His fiery nature is part of what makes him the heart of the team.

In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Agreed. Now mind you, he is known for making some seriously boneheaded decisions at times as well, I just don't think this was one of those times.

Not to mention I hope we get to see Busio under pressure.  

Watching Busio is a treat. Just an excellent playmaker from the midfield. And he's improving on defense too in Serie A.

I'm looking forward to him starting.

I own a vehicle likely worth more than everything you own combined and just flew first class (including a ticket for a 2 1/2 year old), round trip to Las Vegas and I'm not 35 yet. When you accomplish something outside of finishing a book, let me know. When's the last time you saw a 2 year old fly first class in their own seat? Don't tell me about elite.

McKennie is the most important piece of this team

 

Lmao. The final frame of that video is Acosta giving Mexican ultras the bird. Hilarious I never noticed that before

I'll be interested to see what Sargent does/doesn't do under Dean Smith.  Farke is a great soccer COACH.  He wasn't a great manager.  These are 2 different things.  Norwich has a ton of good young talent.  Regardless Sargent had his shot, they tried to get him on the ball and he blew that chance so far.  The EPL is very hard to find a groove for foreign players.  See Havertz and Werner

The majority of players in the EPL are foreign.

That wasn't my point.  Let me spell it out.  Foreign players have a hard time adapting to the English game at first because it's much more physical and demanding style of play than other leagues.
