Remember when we burned over $1M in GAM into thin air to sign this guy? Rightfully so, many are rejoicing that #AllForCITY didn’t fall victim to the sunk-cost fallacy. But what about the process and player identification that thought this was a ✅ in the first place?

Rave reviews from Pat McAfee. DMs from Dak Prescott. Cases of free Modelo delivered to his door. Sam Sarver's overnight viral fame is a great story. But it runs deeper still. “Lots of people have some skeletons in their closet. You never know unless you ask.” www.mlssoccer.com/news/sam-sar...

Fall For CITY 😤

Normally I only do video breakdowns of goals, but I had a TON of requests for this play, so here goes.

This and my morning coffee ☕️ 😌

Player Availability Reports for @stlcitysc.com v @dcunitedofficial.bsky.social Bad news for CITY as Marcel Hartel is the latest to fall victim to an illness that’s been spreading through the team for a couple weeks. Hartel is questionable. #AllForCITY

Jaziel Orozco summed up the final 20+ minutes post-game: "We have to be more professional in these moments." "We'll take it. We'll take the win and the 3 points, but there's a lot to improve on." St. Louis needed the result but the group is far from pleased with how they performed #allforcity

Last year at this time I was going insane because OlofBall wore me down with each time #allforcity failed to advance past midfield while, of course, missing chances they did create. This IS obviously better than that but maybe even more frustrating when THE GOAL IS WIDE OPEN, YOU DID THE HARD PART!

Imagine saying something like this when the fault of the lack of freshness lies at the feet of the person saying it.

Great time at the live Flyover Footy recording last night! Great build up for opening match day Thanks @flyoverfooty.bsky.social for the 2nd annual live event!

🇻🇪 🔴 Sources: St. Louis City is finalizing a deal to sign Venezuela int’l forward Sergio Cordova on loan from BSC Young Boys. Deal is loan with purchase option. Cordova, 28, previously played for Vancouver and Real Salt Lake in MLS. 19 caps for Venezuela.

Renewed enforcement of the STLCSC’s FCoC saw two of St. Louis City Punks banners denied for the upcoming season. There’s nuance to the discussion but supporters feel the club is bowing to outside pressure instead of standing on principles. The Sunday Story: www.talkinsoccer.com/in-this-poli...

In the 2025 MLSPA Player Voices poll, players voted Roman Bürki as the toughest goalie to beat in 2025. #AllForCITY

The Midwestern MLS division is happening. Bruce is reliable & if he’s told this is 1 of 5 divisions coming in 27/28, I believe him. And it’s exactly what I’d talked about on @flyoverfooty.bsky.social a month ago. Get ready for home/away matches against these teams each season. #AllForCITY

So much info accompanying this official announcement to dive into. Among them: Diego offered quotes today that lay clear a lot of speculation that we've talked about heavily over the past few weeks. Tonight, we clear the air. #AllForCITY

Oh (again)

IT IS OFFICIAL! ROMAN BÜRKI IS HERE TO STAY!!! Officially announcing the contract extension before kickoff of the final 2025 game! BÜRKI STAYS THROUGH 2027! #AllForCITY

2 goals, an assist AND a goal-line clearance 👏 Mr. McScorely is your Michelob Ultra Man of the Match 🪄

Lutz officially said his goodbyes to @stlcitysc.com. Lutz Pfannenstiel deserves every bit of praise and gratefulness from CITY fans both for the herculean work it took to create the entire #AllForCITY organization from the literal ground up, but also for how all in he became in every aspect for STL

89' | MYKHI ON HIS BIRTHDAY!!!! C'mon, boyz!! 👏 2-3 | #STLvHOU | #AllForCITY

@andrew-wiebe.bsky.social usually respect your takes, but disappointed about IR for the last Pen in the STL-VAN match. You’re assuming there was contact based on…what? The fact that he fell? And you ignored the no foul call on field. You really think it was clear and obvious to overturn?

Andrew Wiebe weighs in on the PK calls in the City SC-Vancouver game. I predict you'll disagree with two of them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QLN...

Bombshell but not completely unexpected. Pfannenstiel only had a year left on his deal and it was always questionable if he should be involved in the managerial search again. Diego Gigliani and John Hackworth will assume Pfannenstiel’s responsibilities in the interim #allforcity

Full stop, that was garbage. Absolutely ridiculous for the VAR check to even occur at 110’ much less it be called a penalty on Joyner and @stlcitysc.com. This is an embarrassment for MLS.

So I have looked at this a million times now. I can't spot the contact. Based on that, I do think the VAR moment overshadowed what should have been a great moment for Thomas Müller and the Whitecaps. I have said this in the past about VAR. I do support it but it needs serious reform.

👑 returns. #AllForCITY #CHIvSTL

Tonight’s stats:

Goodnight, STL 😴

FOR OUR NEIGHBORS, FOR OUR CITY ❤️ Members of the St. Louis CITY SC staff were out in North STL today helping with tornado relief efforts and supporting the people most affected by last week’s deadly tornado.

@hornekerjustin.bsky.social did you see MLS got you a mention for your STL-SKC match article? www.mlssoccer.com/news/rivalry... #allforcity

Diego Gigliani has been the @stlcitysc.com President/GM since 4/26/24. A fired coach, a successful interim you chose not to hire & a failed coach + our record w/your fingerprints on it, is a bad 1st yr on the job. #AllForCITY
