the 2026 MLS season is a little more than a third complete. FC Cincinnati probably isn't as good or bad as you think - they're fine. Which is a problem for a team that's been as all in as they have been. www.preseasonstreams.com/checking-in-...

at least now Arsenal fans will chill out about vast conspiracies from officials and VAR, right?!

one of the most aesthetically pleasing kind of passes to me personally

vibes of this very attacking lineup currently cratering

Westwood hits that kind of cross so well

how pat nooonan stopped worrying and learned to love playing the kids

Kevin Denkey showing up for his shift at the xG farm

I continue to be impressed even as an early Kenji Mboma Dem stock holder

Does this scout think the characters in Avatar are called Avatars? www.nytimes.com/athletic/726...

Royals/Dash kicking off at 8 PM local on a Wednesday night in early May is either going to be the most boring soccer game ever or absolutely bonkers, no in between.

what's the appropriate term for a very brief surrender cobra when something ALMOST happened but didn't. asking for the Arsenal crowd after that Gyokeres chance.

Claudia absolutely feasting on tired NWSL defenses

I’ll take it www.maptap.gg May 3 100🎯 99🔥 100🎯 100🎯 99🔥 Final score: 996

Fully after dark now

FC Cincinnati stumbling into two young actually fine options to eat minutes in the form of a former late first round SuperDraft pick and the brother of a top prospect is a fun development

MLS after dusk in Chicago, huh

can't say no to a little MLS OSINT on a Saturday afternoon

The updates we need

Louisville remains in the Dyche zone

the second leg should just be open play golden goal

now we know what the soccer equivalent of the all-PI offense is

I think Griezmann might still be pretty fun this summer in Orlando

rule of cool, goal stands

this game rocks

Firmly fits into my view that FC Cincinnati is a fine team - and going off of underlying performances, slightly better than last year's heater of a season - but, still just a fine team.

this sport can be so dumb and I love it

workshopping a take that FCC seems to always struggle on the road against NYCFC because Chris Albright prizes tools over technical ability in players

Samuel Gidi seemingly picking right up with the CB/CM hybrid thing I wrote a little about on Monday www.preseasonstreams.com/defensive-di...

the real FC Cincinnati renaissance is going to be on when Kenji Mboma Dem and Kristian Fletcher are Pat Noonan's starting wing backs

@threedef.bsky.social's bzzlghtyr.github.io/full-kit-ran... but for nfl gms

ope

Just a couple hours to prepare yourself for Berman's latest word salad about evangelizing this ownership group to league's ecosystem or whatever

one next day bump for this because we'll have more to talk about with a game tomorrow night

I wrote about Chris Brady being REALLY good, Roman Celentano being fine, and a FC Cincinnati defense that isn't as bad as it seems. Also Samuel Gidi doing some interesting stuff that'll be worth keeping an eye on later this week. www.preseasonstreams.com/defensive-di...

through eight games, both Chris Brady and Brad Stuver are putting up better shot stopping numbers than Djordje Petrovic's absurd 2022 season per @americansocceranalysis.com data. Small sample sizes and all but also something to keep an eye on...

I feel bad for the Arsenal fans in my life, but this is tremendous content

I really need to rewatch this game because the vibes from watching on my phone in a bar did not match up with this

The attacking talent in the USWNT pool right now is absurd

Feel bad for any team that has to play down a goal to this USWNT team. So much juice in the open field on the break.

just realized we all have to sit through 180+ minutes of Atleti-Arsenal

New research! @beninquiring.bsky.social replicated @eliotmckinley.com's work on throw ins, and added g+ in to see how teams can be smarter on the trendiest part of the game in 2026. With an interactive throw in visualizer! www.americansocceranalysis.com/home/2026/4/...

if this happens, it's definitely Not For Me

at a baseball game and realizing I will probably not Remember Any Of These Guys. Middle relievers and middle infielders don’t hit the same way they used to. Bittersweet.

after reading the full article, Jessica Berman might be the GOAT consultant-style speaker

Next day bump for this if you'd rather spend a few minutes reading about a narrow 4-4-2 rather than...everything else

Pat Noonan made some very real adjustments to the team's lineup on Saturday. If this isn't a one-off change, there are some significant trade offs that need to be balanced moving forward: www.preseasonstreams.com/trade-offs/
