This was rough one. We definitely don’t look ready for the season yet. Mistakes aside, the squad as a whole just looked disjointed imho.
@aph @ironeaglebird and that is EXACTLY why you have pre-season.
Totally agree. But after the mls all-star game I guess I just thought it would go a little different. 😅
I don't generally enjoy shitting on MLS more than necessary, but that match was a blowout. It was men against boys.
I mean like Rooney pointed out, they couldn't train for shit cuz it's literally "here's a bunch of players, half of which the coach didn't even pick. Oh and you don't even get a pitch to train on. Good luck! We're all counting on you."
Fair. The good news, we don't know what the goals were or how they were playing. Arteta is ridiculously secretive, so I'm sure he doesn't want to show the other United what the plans are.
This is really just a $£ grab, nothing more. Which is good, because we need the £$
