Probably at Jersey Mike's, they are near 112 . I have not tried them because the guys who sit next to me got " Philly Cheese Steaks" from them that looked and tasted like crap. I miss Carl's!!
me and
Schwallacus got some bomb ass cheesesteaks, i dont remember what section they were from though
I think the ones you're talking about that we got were from the stand right behind section 223. Little stand against the wall right before / after you get to the escalators by the entrance to the Delta Suites. Also across from the mini NYCFC/Yankee store. Easy to miss. Good Steak sammich.me and
I got the cheesesteak yesterday and that's all they serve there... at least on the upper concourse. Maybe it's different downstairs, but guessing it's a totally different vendor.
They usually don't. Last night I thought Maxi was pretty poor. Not the whole game and obviously I am grading on a curve, because he wasn't terrible or anything, but he just had a lot more bad passes and giveaways then I am used to seeing from him. And that may have more to do with NE clogging the middle and just swarming Villa, but still.
Was it any good? The guys next to me got one on the first day it was there and maybe they do only sell Cheesesteaks, I haven't tried Mike's yet. I was assuming they had more options since it seemed stupid to switch out Carl's.
(Hears voice of a yelling Simon Borg) "while it looks like the defender is all over Villa, it was a natural motion to wrap both arms around him due to Villa's backward push and is a natural play for the ball for his leg to go that high. Great no-call by Geiger there, I would have gone yellow for Villa or even a STRAIGHT RED!"
Maxi was better playing next to Herrera than he was playing in front of him.
Not advocating for a position change but he continues to struggle with the physical nature of this league from the "10." He's the anti-Poku

I thought Maxi wasn't that great either, but I think a lot of that had to do with him needing to track back much further this match with Mikey distributing at the 6 rather than Ring. Mikey really could not move the ball at all, so Maxi needed to track back more than usual to grab possession, then distribute, rather than being advanced, receiving, and spreading.
Mikey brought the ball out of the back once by dribbling twice and then passing it straight to the opposing midfielder who in turn started a crazy counter. Pretty sure that was when RJ got his yellow.
None of the midfielders look good without the others, but that is standard. Klestjan doesn't look as good without Dax. I agree with the prior comment that Vieira has done the best he can to limit Michael Lopez' limitations, but don't underestimate how bad he is. He literally has no idea what to do with the ball when he gets it.
it makes me question the front office that we went through the summer window with Lopez as primary back up to CM, CDM, RB, LB and CB.
Lopez is an incredible liability with the ball at his feet because (as you point out) he doesn't know what to do with it. However, when he doesn't have the ball, he is generally a tenacious defender (in the mold of the terrier dog biting your ankle) that will run his ass off and has the wheels to do it. PV has obviously decided he'd rather have the defensive help and be a man down on offense rather than the other way around with certain other players.... although as of late, we're a man down on both offense and defense when TMac is on the field, hence his area of the bench has been very warm.
