Wayne Rooney, DC United mutually part ways | MLSSoccer.com

D.C. United and head coach Wayne Rooney have mutually agreed to part ways, the club announced Saturday evening in the immediate aftermath of being eliminated from the Audi 2023 MLS Cup Playoffs. Rooney originally joined the Black-and-Red in July 2022, returning to the club he played for from...

Rooney out. Officially mutual but I I think he might have initiated it.

I wish Marine or some other low level club in the NW of England could use a certain manager with MLS experience.

DC being currently in 9th but eliminated is funny

This schedule is such trash - 3 weeks to get through the first round and then a 2 week break for the conf semifinals and conf finals?

A team might have a 3 week break if they win the best of 3 series in 2. I’m surprised if fans will even remember the playoffs are still going on.

NYCFC missing the playoffs so they don’t have to deal with this crap:

FIFA having international breaks in September, October, AND November -- then none again until March -- is also trash.

MLS figured out how to schedule playoffs around those breaks with minimal disruption and threw it away for Leagues Cup.

Teams in cold-weather countries can find road games for those windows if they need to. And in many of those countries, they can find warmer-weather climates for January games. Even Russia has Sochi.

Also, there are international windows in the summer, during Southern Hemisphere winters. That's not the reason. Pretty sure the reason has something to do with the European club season.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the "we've updated our Terms of Service" alert I've been seeing on the site lately.

Woof. I think this may be the worst crest I’ve ever seen since the Chicago Fire first updated crest. Chrome and Azul is a pretty embarrassing nickname. Here I’ll help them out!
San Diego Manhole covers
San Diego Urinal drains
San Diego hubcap spinners
San Diego beyblades
San Diego Silver Fidget Spinners

Hopefully the kits will have some reflective chrome vibe. Because if it ended up just grey and blue then you’ve got a really shitty knock off of Montreal.

Horrible in it's base form and going to look even worse when it's printed with plain single color ink on T-shirts and other merchandise.

Out to dinner near Lincoln Center with my girlfriend and her mother. Who walks in and tries to get a seat, but there’s no tables left? Don Garber lol! I chirped him and said “Don why aren’t you at home watching the playoffs?!” He smiled and that was that.

What I really wanted to say was “Don the new playoff format is so awful even you’re not watching?!”
