    Seattle Sounders 2019 Season Thread

    Sorry I haven't been around much at all. Life has been crazy lately. Here's my notes thus far: - V-Rod looks like an Elite Player this year. - Morris is a much improved player. He is playing with a ton of confidence, and he is playing a lot smarter this season. - Bruin is healthy and been in...

    That was the best soccer game I've ever had the pleasure of seeing live. It's a shame we lost, but I have no regrets about that game or this season.

    When 3 of the 4 goals scored are from simple cutbacks you know they are a bad team. They didn't mark anyone in the box...

    Can you post that article? That would be such a great thing for MLS and Chelsea fans. Allen is the type of owner to hire a manager and give him time to develop a roster to win. Opens a lot of avenue's for the relationship between the two.

    Easy on the 3rd DP spot. A couple articles have been written lately that MLS may get rid of the 3rd DP slot in favor of increasing TAM and the Salary Cap (Which I think will improve the league). And if that is the case...then Garth Lagerway deserves a lot more credit for how he's built the...

    Harry Shipp and Brad Smith both out 2-3 weeks with Hamstring Injuries.

    Interesting you bring this up. If Dempsey had retired a few weeks earlier (when the window was open) we likely would have been able to sign Paulo Hurtado, a Peruvian Winger. We got outbid by a Turkish club, but we offered everything we had available. I honestly don't think we would have had...

    This is definitely an American Culture vs Soccer/Football Culture difference. It's pretty rare around the world to have Jersey Numbers retired in Soccer, and when it happens its usually posthumously. Personally, I don't think his number should be retired....but if we start down the road where...

    Absolutely agree. I think he's had a huge impact. I'd say that Kim Kee Hee is turning out to be a monster signing as well. Dude is keeping Roman Torres on the bench. One thing to keep in mind with Smith is that he is here on a Loan. He is with us through the remainder of the season and the...

    Ozzie Alonso is the most important player to play for this club since it joined MLS. Its not close.

    They don't have to change the title. It's already built in. Garth isn't going anywhere. He may not be General Manager, but He'll stay President of Soccer regardless. Garth isn't going anywhere. He just may get another person on the payroll to assist run the club.
