Hi everyone. I am a long time former Metrostars fan aka redbulls. After following that team since the last 90s I have decided to make the switch. The latest firing of Mike Pete among all the other total lack of respect over the years for their fans, has finally broken the camels back.
When NYCFC was announced, I immediately loved the name because it has NYC in it, and as someone who grew up in BK and SI and has family in Manhattan, I was intrigued. Combine that with the hiring of Jason Kreis who I think is a tremendous coach and the fact that the Yankees are part owners, me being a Yankee fan, didn't hurt. I was intrigued. I am not a fan of man city but I don't hate them. I consider myself an arsenal fan if I were to pick an epl team.
Then the signings came. David Villa who I like alot. Lampard who I don't love but thought was a good signing nonetheless. I really don't care that his loan got extended. For those of us who follow mls for a long time, knows that it is of utmost importance to get your team ready in the second half of the season heading into the playoffs. Lampard will be a nice shot in the arm for us come the second half. And now the sign in of Mix. A nice young American player. I love everything about this team so far and I can only hope the stadium issues get resolved.
So I look forward to discussing with my fellow nycfc fans our team, our league and hopefully enjoying much success together. Cheers!
