Game over. Ronaldo with two goals. UGH. 3-1. No way Juve comes back now.

Sergio Ramos is a piece of trash.

2nd half destruction, turning into NBA finals.

I rarely feel for anything in sports nowadays (except Latvia). Gigi's one of the rare exceptions. That was so anticlimactic and blah.

In other news, I got the best freelance gig ever. I go to Latvian soccer games (even the third best league in Latvia, as amateur as it can get) and do updates on a phone app for this data company (it collects it for bookmakers, to detect fixed matches, etc.). Have to be alert about stuff happening on the pitch, but for me as a sports fan it's pretty enjoyable.

So long reception jobs and being a waiter! Hope to hold this down while trying to break out in journalism.

Madrid is over powered, them and barcelona have 5 of the top 10 players in the world probably, maybe more.

and weren't they transfer banned for the past couple windows? probably going to sell james and buy another star to replace him.

In other news , they play the MLS all-stars this year, MLS gonna win 3-2.

If he keeps going at this pace, best USA player ever?

Post #1512 » by **fatlever** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 6:34 pm

I really believe that injuries are the only thing can prevent Pulisic from being the best US player of all time , or maybe a series of disastrous loans/transfers that stunt his progress.

7 changes from th TT game, probably gonna get dumped but Mexico is without a few starters too.

Post #1514 » by **fatlever** » Mon Jun 12, 2017 12:32 am

Not just 7 changes, but a formation change and a goalie change. I don't quite understand the Guzan move.

Post #1515 » by **fatlever** » Mon Jun 12, 2017 12:38 am

Michael Bradley, wonder goal.

Basically no chance for charlotte to get a team.

He is pretty good, can probably compete for a starting spot or a regularly used backup.

If we can add Gonzales too for the gold cup that would be huge.
