Matt Turner: "It’s going to be something I want to achieve – to be at the 2030 World Cup. That is going to rely heavily on my performances here [with the Revs].“ #NERevs #USMNT www.theblazingmusket.com/matt-turner-...

Soccer is thriving in New England, even at the lower decisions. Mitchell Ketchen of @dirigounion.bsky.social on @heartsofpine.bsky.social : “It has saved my life in more ways than one. It’s given me hope. It’s given me joy. It’s given me my love of sports back.” www.boston.com/sports/world...

Schmetzer confirmed that Cody Baker was sent on loan to Revolution. I independently confirmed there’s a purchase option that kicks in based on playing time.

@heartsofpine.bsky.social came back twice to defeat FC Naples 3-2. They’ve collected consecutive wins for the first time this season and sit three points below the playoff line. www.theblazingmusket.com/portland-hea...

Good news for Revs fans is that new forward signing Wilson Harris has a pair of goals in 50-plus minutes vs. the Union today CC: @sethman31.bsky.social

Taylor Twellman on… Jack Harrison: “I know the #NERevs were sniffing around that.” Matt Turner coming back: “Massive.” What position the Revs should look to add: “It’s a wide player or somebody in the middle of the park who can run the show.” www.theblazingmusket.com/taylor-twell...

Everyone should be watching this.

Lee Nguyen is the new head coach and technical director of the USL Super League’s Dallas Trinity after leaving his role as assistant coach of the #NWSL’s Seattle Reign. He previously assisted at Angel City, Kansas City Current, Washington Spirit.

Doyle says he’d start Matt Turner against Belgium #NERevs

Wrote this back in 2024 and it’s still my favorite piece. The story of Esmir Bajraktarevic is a good one. www.theblazingmusket.com/the-story-of...

Chris Tierney is ready for a new role with the New England Revolution. "His work ethic is unparalleled." "Chris has unparalleled relationships across the league." "He has superior intelligence." "He’s very motivated, he’s eager." #NERevs www.theblazingmusket.com/chris-tierne...

Tierney on... Turner: "We are in conversations with [Lyon] to try to find a deal that satisfies all parties." A DP: "We’re evaluating a number of options to bring in a [DP] this summer, & our hope and expectation is to be able to do that.” #NERevs www.theblazingmusket.com/revolutions-...

At #NERevs practice. Among those in attendance is striker Wilson Harris, officially labeled as a trialist.

Another great story from @sethman31.bsky.social on why Esmir Bajraktarevic chose to play for Bosnia www.theblazingmusket.com/why-esmir-ba...

Fun detail in the story: There were two families that said they named their child "Esmir" after Bajraktarević scored the game-winning penalty against Italy. Bajraktarević sent the families a jersey.

Esmir Bajraktarević impressed during his 2024 appearance for the #USMNT. He then switched to represent Bosnia. “It was about his family. It was about that history in the '90s. It was about everything that they had to overcome to have a great family." www.theblazingmusket.com/why-esmir-ba...

On Wednesday, the U.S. play Bosnia and Herzegovina in a Round of 32 game. 21-year-old Esmir Bajraktarević could be a factor for the Dragons. The #NERevs Homegrown played one game for the #USMNT  before deciding to represent the country where his parents were born.

From a media perspective, you don’t want to see the #USMNT lose because winning brings more interest to a sport still growing in the United States. I don’t think the loss matters in the locker room. Wednesday’s 8 pm knockout game is immense though.

3 reasons I’m not worried about the #USMNT loss: 1. U.S. rotated in a meaningless game. They largely held their own while playing without a defensive mid 2. Christian Pulisic returned and looked lively. He looks ready for another WC moment 3. They scored another early goal

Inside of you there are two Seb Berhalters: One who hits piss-missiles and the other who plays fetch. Playing ratings from last night. tacticsfreezone.ghost.io/player-ratin...

I’m not worried about momentum, to be honest. It was a late loss where the #USMNT rotated.

Sebastian Berhalter was excellent tonight. He had the most chances created (5) and the most touches (89). I think he will be a factor in the knockout stage. #USMNT

The commentary is perfect here. #USMNT

Turkey score a late-game winner in a game that doesn't matter in the standings. Is momentum affected? Not sure. The biggest storyline is that Christian Pulisic is back and looked good in the attack. Pulisic created one chance and had two shots on target in 32 minutes. #USMNT

James Cameron talking soccer while sipping wine and wearing a Fox Racing shirt at the World Cup feels very appropriate.

Ideal scenario: Christian Pulisic scores, then gets subbed out. #USMNT

Every #USMNT fan when Christian Pulisic entered

Christian Pulisic has been a menace since entering. I think it’s important to highlight how the #USMNT has been dangerous in wide areas. Also, Sebastian Berhalter has been good.

Christian Pulisic is back #USMNT

The #USMNT  scoring on set pieces will always make me happy. That's just part of their identity.

My second half expectations for the #USMNT:

On the second goal, five #USMNT players focus on the ball instead of tracking runs.

Turkey just doesn’t have it. But the USMNT deserve all the credit for scoring their second-fastest goal in World Cup history.

Is Paris Hilton the face of US Soccer? I’ll hang up and listen.

New England Revolution goalkeeper Matt Turner starts for the U.S. Men’s National Team. #NERevs #USMNT

Portland Hearts of Pine ended their four-game losing streak in an impressive way, beating the Richmond Kickers 5-1. Here are three thoughts. www.theblazingmusket.com/portland-hea...

USMNT vs. Turkey: Will Poch go full squad rotation for the group stage finale? (I think he's gonna!) tacticsfreezone.ghost.io/usmnt-vs-tur...

m hearing there’s a strong possibility that Matt Turner starts tomorrow’s U.S. Men’s National Team game against Turkey. #USMNT  #NERevs

It’s been really cool seeing the #NERevs ads throughout the World Cup and the marketing team meeting the moment. My biggest hope is Americans who have discovered and embraced the supporter culture and the sport this month choose to support their local team going forward.

I spoke to #NERevs president Brian Bilello about how they’re leveraging the World Cup. Included is an update on the Everett stadium. “I feel pretty strongly that any sports fan who comes to our new venue will have the best experience in Boston.” www.boston.com/sports/world...

Esmir Bajraktarević sent his country to a World Cup. He's also a Revolution academy success story. trib.al/EqYDrAa

Portland Hearts of Pine are looking for consistency, and a couple of strikers. www.theblazingmusket.com/portland-hea...

I’m interested in using BlueSky more but I haven’t gained traction here.

Sources indicate that the New England Revolution are interested in Jack Harrison. Harrison, 29, previously played for New York City FC. He’s most recently been with Fiorentina, Everton, and Leeds United. #NERevs

“For about a decade, maybe a touch longer, especially when the U.S. Developmental Academy started, I think they got it wrong with the development of goalkeepers… “…I think they emphasized too much playing out of the back.” How much does a GK’s foot skills matter? #USMNT

Matt Turner or Matt Freese? Brad Friedel has a unique perspective on the pre-World Cup United States goalkeeper debate. trib.al/gzcvRGz

Your can’t miss USMNT reaction show

Don’t worry. Things will turn around once Mauricio Pochettino has a water break, presented by Apple. #USMNT

Well, Chris Brady isn’t the starter. #USMNT

Do you think Mauricio Pochettino is showing the players his LinkedIn page? #USMNT
