And to go further on the typically awarded to the offensive player bit, it is weighted more towards positions that have the highest impact. Perhaps this really only is about football, but it also nearly takes a statistically historical performance for the MVP to be awarded to a RB or WR, it is almost always given to a QB.

I honestly think that Heber could win the Golden Boot next season if he stays healthy.
I honestly think we can win MLS Cup this year if Heber stays healthy.
Mitri - Heber - Shradi has seemed to be pretty good so far this season, and hopefully if we let it sit some more it'll really become potent. They've played well together.
The best way I've been able to sum it up is that it's generally given to the best overall player with a negative modifier for anyone on a team that failed to meet their goals and expectations.
So generally, if your team missed the postseason, you have to be A LOT better than the next best player to win it. Otherwise, how valuable can you be, if it didn't lead to meeting your goals as a team?
He probably needs to start taking PKs to do that. It's not impossible to overcome that advantage, but it's probably a minimum 5-6 goal deficit (and potentially 10 or so) you just don't need.
dont know where the hell we host that if we are ever in that or CCL
CCL yes ,....this campeones cup stuff is in the middle of july till like september. Belson it is
Injury time substitutions are to waste time and get us closer to winning. Every team with a lead will 99% of the time make their remaining 1 or 2 subs at the end of the match to waste time. You see players shaking hands with every player on the team and clapping to the fans with the ref rushing them off the pitch as they leisurely stride and end up doing a fat man trot off the pitch. It's usually a winger or attacking player. This is because offense is no longer needed (being that you have a lead) and an extra defender is useful to help against the full pressure the losing team is trying to muster to gain something in the remaining few minutes.
I don't think this has anything to do with displeasure between Dome/Mitri. If Dome was mad at Mitri, he either wouldn't be playing or be subbed off at halftime.
see ya, Dan, maybe don't rush back.
the ASA bar chart on Ring seems spot on. I've noticed this season that his pass quality has been extremely poor. He gives away the ball entirely too often due to a poor pass. He's also diving in for tackles way too much instead of applying consistent pressure and making the tackle at the best time. Both Ring and Sweat do this entirely way too much and both would be much, much better defensively if they didn't dive in.

the dude already is a winner, literally got signed after a scrimmage while playing for a USL2 side. after nycfc he can potentially go to USL championship so not the worst for him.
EDIT: I think Caldwell is back in memphis, based on his social media, but i think i didnt see announcement from nycfc on him going back (i probably missed it).

Always a good move for our players who don't get a lot of first team minutes to get loaned out. There's no shame in it at all. I'd much rather get minutes in actual games than riding the pine or not even be included in the 18 at all. It's the best way for our lesser featured players to improve. I wish him the best of luck and hope he comes back to us an improved player.
All the more reason NYCFC should maybe talk things out with Villa (if this is a legit project) to get a USL side in Queens. Call it NYCFC 2 or Queensboro FC or whatever. Have the relationship to be able to send players there to develop before bringing them to the first team. We need our own USL side with a close partnership like many other teams in the league. It definitely will help improve the club as a whole.
Strange because that's the Revs official farm team. Odd they would help develop players NYCFC owns in tandem with the Rev prospects.
i think the revs called up two of their players this week from hartford.
Maxi and Heber doing good (not that that's a surprise).
Air Bear can get to 1,000 minutes in 2 games.
