I’m excited by Dome’s tactical aptitude. I’m worried by his/the club’s inability get on the ground running with a full staff and less than 2 weeks till our next match. At least film can be watched anywhere. When’s their first scheduled training session? Monday?
Lampard’s going to pull a lopetegui, give the middle finger to Derby County and come back, professing his love for chicken buckets over English pies!!
Nemec opening the lane for the goal, beaut
Hey, it's the first ever NYCFC goal I saw live! Thanks for sharing this.
All-time great goal for NYCFC. I was amped out of my ****ing mind when he hit this and took his shirt off. Still gives me chills.

The question still stands as to where the staff is coming from and who they are. I think we can be fairly certain he's not gutting a portion of Pep's staff to bring.
Haha You brought up the hypo of if we were an independent team, so I was speaking in terms of that hypo. And yes, what you said w/r/t if we're a farm team I should likely just give up on the team now, perhaps. Of course I realize NYCFC wouldn't exist without CFG, but if the team is a full on farm team, i know many, many people in the tri-state area that would wish it did never exist. Let's face it. In the short term, this club and Red Bull are getting by okay... but in the big picture / long term, they're both very new and huge experiments that may or may not succeed.
So rather than take the time to find the best candidate (and Torrent may be it, idk) and put in a caretaker for the interim, they rushed to hire someone in the CFG organization (lazy) only to need a caretaker in the interim.
That about sum it up?
Poaching from Barca. I like it. And that explains why he’s in Spain. Recruiting.
I’m all for using methods the new coach is accustomed to, but if the players have previously done fitness work without a ball, and are used to that, then there’s a big possibility that making this change midseason will lead to regression by player(s). New methodologies should be introduced during the off-season.
