HERE WE GO @stlcitysc.com FANS! Tom Bogert reporting we have found our DP in Carlo Holse, a left footed attacking midfielder. A $6m fee would make him the most expensive signing in the club's 4 yr history.

Recorded before the Alex Mǎțan signing was official, but treating it as official - the 8:00 mark on the latest @flyoverfooty.bsky.social is where you'll find the details & discussion on Mǎțan to @stlcitysc.com, his skillset, where he fits in and more on why this is an great signing. #AllForCITY

As Alex Mǎțan joins @stlcitysc.com, a couple visuals of his profile & performances in the last couple years in '24 w/Columbus & his most recent stint w/Panetolikos in Greece He's been consistently above average in areas that reflect creativity on the ball, excellent carrying & a guy... #AllForCITY

Alex Mǎțan is officially #AllForCITY! The 26 yr old Romanian attacking midfielder is signed to @stlcitysc.com through the 28-29 season w/an option yr. CITY paid Columbus Crew $100k in 2026 GAM for his right of first refusal and he will take up an int’l roster slot. #AllForCITY (1/4)

New @flyoverfooty.bsky.social previewing the Galaxy & talking all the latest @stlcitysc.com transfer news, rumors and reports is in the can. Plus a vibe check - however you’re feeling, you should identify with at least one talking point! Out on all pod platforms 1st thing tomorrow! #AllForCITY

Yoann Damet confirmed today that Conrad Wallem will miss the match Wednesday at LA Galaxy after he was training solo today. To me, it's Santos at LWB and Totland at RWB now, no questions. Especially as Damet noted that Orozco would be a 2nd half WB option. #AllForCITY

The missing pieces of the Olivarez recall: Olivarez was sent out on loan this preseason before Damet kicked off preseason training Ben Lundt also dealt with a small injury during training camp. Already burned 2/4 of Collin Welsh's short-term callups Option to send Olivarez back on loan #allforcity

Jaziel Orozco, 22 y/o defender, has himself a new @stlcitysc.com contract. His previous contract expired in 2026 & had options through 2028 but was on a league minimum salary. This new contract goes through 28-29 w/a 1 yr option and will no doubt increase his salary. #AllForCITY

Spain’s defense has been incredible in this entire World Cup. 1 goal allowed in 8 matches. Held Argentina to 0 shots in regulation & 2 shots total, none on target in the final. Couple that with beautiful attacking phases and they are very deserving World Cup Champions.

Confirmation that @stlcitysc.com were in on pursuing current MLS Golden Boot leader Hugo Cuypers. He joined Monterrey for a reported $7.5m fee that rises to $8m w/add ons. This is the kind of tangible proof #AllForCITY fans should look at to know the FO is doing work…

Reports out of Romania linking @stlcitysc.com to Alex Mǎțan, a 5’5 26 yr old right footed attacking midfielder. Out of contract now but recently played for Panetolikos in Greece, played the the Crew from 21-24 & was a Donanian youth int’l. (1/2) #AllForCITY

After tonight’s win, @stlcitysc.com is closer to 3rd place in the West than they are to @sportingkc.com, who are in last place. Now just 1 pt out of a playoff spot. #AllForCITY

Yoann Damet said postgame on Roman Bürki, “he wasn’t fit enough to perform… I think he needs a little bit more fitness…” Damet said he’s available, on a different level of fitness from the others, but the keeper is a position where “whoever’s going to play will play 90 minutes”. #AllForCITY

There are still big question marks in this @stlcitysc.com roster. This didn’t quell any of that, but STL was also unquestionably the better team tonight. SKC is still a wooden spoon contender. No addition has changed that for them in this performance. #AllForCITY 🧵

FT. @stlcitysc.com defeat @sportingkc.com 3-2. This felt like the rivalry match it was. A hard fought match with excellent defensive plays by STL, enough clinical finishing to offset everything else and a team w/enough quality to see it out without it getting dicey at the end. #AllForCITY

Tomas Ostrák enters for Edu Löwen at 88’, immediately after Löwen connects the PK. It’s Ostrák’s 1st MLS appearance in 2026 and it’s a sight for sore eyes. Fresh legs, quality on the ball and a great work rate. Ostrák takes the R10 position. #AllForCITY

EDU LÖWEN. From. The. Spot. 86th minute PK goal after a handball call on SKC. #AllForCITY up 3-2 late!

Update on Bürki via the broadcast. #AllForCITY

Self inflicted dagger at 76’ as Ben Lundt’s short pass is intercepted and quickly scored on. Marcel Hartel, as a captain does, was quick to offer words of encouragement to Lundt afterwards. It’s even 2-2. #AllForCITY

HT and its @stlcitysc.com leading 2-1. Tonight seemed like a good night for a hydration break and CITY seemed to tire as the half wore on. But they created more chances, had better possession and earned this lead. #AllForCITY

Marcel Hartel doubles the lead for @stlcitysc.com at 36’ after a beautiful through ball from Simon Becher. Hartel with the absolute clinical and patient finish, through the keeper’s 5 hole. 2-0 #AllForCITY

SANGBIN WITH THE OPENER! Sangbin Jeong nets the 1st goal of the match at 28’ off a broken play! Wallem with a tremendous job in cresting that chance with his play on the keeper! 1-0 #AllForCITY

Here we go. Damet said it was a blank slate for the guys heading into the last few weeks. We knew Durkin was out but… MacNaughton > both Fallou & Orozco. Löwen at CM 🥳 Sangbin reinforces himself as a top R10 option. And no Bürki. No explanation yet. #AllforCITY

Christian Olivares returns to @stlcitysc.com. I'm told this is not connected in any way to Ben Lundt's status. The impact to the overall roster is noteworthy. It will work itself out but real time, we are already full up on our supplemental roster, 10/10. #AllForCITY

Our Consensus Projected @stlcitysc.com Starting XI in the 1st game back after an 8 week break. There are 3 primary questions here: CB, CM, R10. Chris Durkin is suspended. Damet has preferred Löwen higher up & our mantra is always that if Edu is healthy, he starts. So we have him there #AllForCITY

Wagner went to Birmingham from the Union for a reported $2.5-ish million just 6 months ago. Now they're paying just under $4m to bring him back and he goes from a TAM Player to a DP. Huh?

IT'S FINALLY GAMEDAY! @stlcitysc.com is back tonight, the rarest of Thursday matches and we're at home - riding a 5 match unbeaten streak w/5 wins in our last 7 matches. CITY to me is clearly the better team as they stand now w/much better underlying numbers even w/o reinforcements. #AllForCITY🧵

Player Availability Reports for @stlcitysc.com v @sportingkc.com are out. A healthy, if not largely unchanged, #AllForCITY squad at the restart. STL OUT: Célio Pompeu (knee) OUT: Chris Durkin (suspended) SKC OUT: Diego Borges (quad) OUT: Taylor Calheira (ankle) OUT: Justin Reynolds (hamstring)

Jake Girdwood-Reich officially departs @stlcitysc.com for Scottish Premiership side Motherwell FC & opens a U22 slot for CITY. JGR was signed by Lutz back in summer '24 for an $800k transfer fee, took up a U22 slot since then & totaled 18 appearances & 654 minutes over the 24-25 seasons #AllForCITY

🚨NEW EPISODE🚨 @stlcitysc.com and MLS are BACK and so are we, full on into CITY coverage! A complete look at both teams & everything you need to know as play resumes. Plus overall World Cup thoughts & a CITY roster overview! #AllForCITY 🎙️ podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Palmer Ault, 22 y/o FW, has been officially announced as having signed a 1st team contract with @stlcitysc.com. As discussed on the latest @flyoverfooty.bsky.social, Ault was in preseason as a trialist w/CITY and had played in the friendly last week vs Nashville SC. (1/2) #AllForCITY

Reports emerging that JGR's move will be to Motherwell FC in the Scottish Premiership. This follows what I discussed yesterday re: news upcoming & JGR not having returned to @stlcitysc.com training after his loan to Auckland expired. This move will free up both a U22 & int'l slot at #AllForCITY

This is an insane level of consistency.

Timo Baumgartl obtained his green card during the break. In his media availability ahead of the SKC match, Timo talked about the long process and why he did it. - To help the team w/the int'l slot. (1/2) #AllForCITY

Yoann Damet spoke to media ahead of @stlcitysc.com resuming play on Thursday vs SKC. Damet gave updates on the squad: - Everyone with the team is healthy (Célio remains out long term) #AllForCITY 🧵

We’re back, live tonight at 830pm! We’ll touch on our summer breaks and the World Cup - but the focus is 100% back to @stlcitysc.com We’ll set the stage for the back half of the season & preview in full, the 1st STL/SKC match of 2026 #AllForCITY youtube.com/@flyoverfoot...

It’s FINALLY match week for @stlcitysc.com! After 7 weeks off for the World Cup, CITY resumes play on Thursday vs our kansas neighbors. The team is likely to look almost identical but they’re also riding a 5 match unbeaten streak w/5 wins in our last 7. #AllForCITY

The 1st arrival for @stlcitysc.com this window is midfielder Zach Zengue, on loan from Columbus for $50k in GAM w/an option to buy. #AllForCITY

Is it just me or does this World Cup feel like Keepers are just owning the spotlight. Key PK saves, record setting performances by smaller country keepers... we talk about star goal scorers but man are these GKs shining!

Couple fun items as part of the Old Vienna x @stlcitysc.com collab beyond the merch drops are matchday menu items updated w/ Red Hot Riplets + outside of Energizer Park, CITY's partnering w/select delis to give away bags of CITY Red Hot Riplets. #AllForCITY

The full MLS All Star roster has been announced and probably no surprise but still disappointing to see, no @stlcitysc.com representation. No arguments against whether we should have a rep but still always disappointing to not have a player perform well enough to be recognized.

At the Cardinals game on Tuesday and this happened. Is this brand new? A giant promo in the crowd for free QT hot dogs.

In less than 10 days, on 7/16, @stlcitysc.com return to play. Let's level set. As we sit on 7/7, we have no new signings. No rumors of near signings either. #AllForCITY have: 17/20 senior slots 9/10 supplemental slots 3 int'l slots 2/3 DP slots 3/3 U22 slots 🧵

Argentina/Egypt is off the rails in the 2nd half. WOW.

The best take I've seen is simply the #USMNT is a top 16 team in the world, but they're clearly not a top 8. Simple as that. We saw good performances and we were beyond hyped after the group & the fandom escalated after Bosnia but vs the true on-field measuring stick in Belgium, our stars faded. 🧵

The #USMNT had a +1.32 xGD in the World Cup coming into Belgium They had a -1.48 xGD tonight alone A team who’d been stout defensively, clean w/the ball & forced errors to score offered little of any & key attackers like Pulisic & Dest offered nothing to compensate

The flattest performance, by far, by the #USMNT in this World Cup. The differences were the errors from the US and capitalizing very well on them by Belgium. Hard to digest this game when we’ve watched so much better the past few weeks.

The #USMNT began to look a bit better after the hydration break but it’s nowhere near enough. Too many bad touches, lazy passes, and miscommunications. We know this team is better than this. Big task in front of them down 2-1.

Malik Tillman let’s goooooo! We’re back baby! #USMNT 🇺🇸

The #USMNT look lazy, slow and uncreative. And that’s entirely because of Belgium. Hate how much better they’ve looked than us through 23’
