    No team gets a pass on kit design. It's the most important item besides on field performance. It's your brand for god sake's! You have to get it right.

        Morning treat: my old flame Fulham's FA Cup tie at the Cottage.

        Tempered by Kane's hat trick and Spurs up 3-zip.

        Very sharp gold kit for Tottenham. Maybe I'll jump to them from Arsenal, which doesn't seem to be catching my affection.

        Or maybe I'll root for both just as a finger in the eye of the North London derby.

          Yeah I'm sure Adidas was super happy being told to come up with two more jerseys in five months. Granted they did pay for it...


          To put in perspective, each MLS team gets one new uniform design each year, one year home and the next the away. Sprinkle in the few teams that need a new alternate and you've only got maybe 26-28 designs a year. Plus expansion teams usually have 2-3 years before they take the field, MNUFC is strange case because they're going on 5-6 months. I mean, LAFC doesn't start until next year but they've been prepping for what? Two years?

            Basically from the moment Chivas USA folded in 2014. So by the time they join it'll have been three years.

              I'm so hyped/nervous about the EFL Cup final this weekend. It's been a while since we had a realistic shot at silverware.

              I'd be more confident with Virgil though since none of our healthy CBs have the height to deal with Zlatan in the air (and Stephens's senior career is still very young so that doesn't help).

                        Haisley is vehemently anti-MLS and deserves nobody's clicks, let alone mine. Not only is he anti-MLS, he's completely ********** ignorant about it.

                            how exactly is being the tenth best league in the world in a sport where the other leagues have about a 100 year head start mean they suck? Granted, I find it hard to believe anyone would currently rank MLS above Liga MX and they didn't make that list...

                              I never said they sucked. Timbers fan here, and nobody's tarnishing that trophy.

                              But we're not going to be a Real Boy until the teams are completely independently owned and operated. I have no idea whether it's anywhere close to being there -- my understanding is the risk is too many owners would just put a sh-t product out there and the league would contract to the point of folding.

                                Well both. He hates MLS but he'll slob all over the NASL or the 3rd round of the Copa del Rey or some random lower Euro league.

                                He's one of the worst combinations in the world: a eurosnob with a platform.

                                And 10th in the world after being around for only 21 years in a country with people actively trying to destroy said league? Not bad.
