I won't say what other bully he reminds me of, in order not to start a political melee.
And then the next time he doesn't get the penalty call he feels he deserves,
Due to his playing/transfer coming from Europe, I didn't include him in the list. Heber/Maxi are also South Americans, but (similar to Callens) were at European clubs for a few years before coming here. The list I put together was just based off players coming from SA clubs, to gauge how well/poorly our scouts have done.
Probably on the short list of worst reffing in MLS history. Ted Unkel made a tackle on Luciano Acosta, Will Trapp came in and got the ball, and the resulting possession resulted in a Crew goal. Unkel then used VAR to correct his own mistake, by saying that Trapp fouled Acosta and called the goal back.
Could probably use some better phrasing.
When your that fast it doesn’t even matter how good you are at soccer. A coach will always take a chance on you.
The silver lining here is that ten years ago, those players would have been pushed through college and into MLS, where they would ultimately get minutes. Players would be 25 and never really got any technical development other than "run fast"
Don’t let the notion that this discussion started with regard to youth players get in the way of your quip. Or that Nemec and Berget had respectable scoring numbers before/after they did their stint at NYCFC, where neither were properly used. But hey, get right in there and grab that low hanging fruit.
And tall guys play basketball!
I believe the opportunity cost of signing Medina was large enough to call his signing more than a small failure.
