Charlotte will be on Apple TV (no extra pass for MLS this season; it's included in the standard subscription now) at 19:30 GMT today if anyone wants to shit talk me about the quality of the league live.

Clashes with Braga Vs Vitória. Think I'll go with watching João Moutinho over Ashley Westwood

If ever there was a player I’d accept in that argument, it’s João. Bless him.

He's still absolutely majestic. He'd walk into our current team.

Leon Clarke would walk into our current team

Convenient for him, given that’s his top speed

The way Dean sets us up really pisses me off sometimes.

 

[Alan]

I'm not sure if taking minute-by-minute notes has helped me enjoy things more. Probably something I won't appreciate until tomorrow.

0-0 at HT. We've done what we do under Dean; absorb a ton of pressure in a fairly uncomfortable way. St Louis seem to be losing the energy they had in the first 30 minutes, which they dominated.

Ex-Wolf (technically) Jeong Sang-Bin has been a nuisance and given Tim Ream a tough afternoon so far, but he's lacked composure.

 

[Alan]

St Louis go 1 up and it's really hard to see how we get anything back from here. They've made us look incredibly poor, but Dean's tactics are not helping. Everything is very reactionary.

 

[Alan]

I get up to take a piss and we equalize out of nowhere.

 

[Alan]

1-1 at FT. Kahlina had 10 saves, I think. Really poor performance as a team; no idea how we got away with that.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Back down to earth with a 4-0 defeat at Leverkusen.

Huge game at home to Bremen next Sunday (17th vs 16th, 2 point gap as it stands)

Won this and won at Hoffenheim today

Don't give me hope you bastards

 

[Alan]

Charlotte FC are testing me already.

After needing 10 saves from Kahlina to get a point last week, we got absolutely embarrassed by LA Galaxy last night, 3-0. Could have been 7-0. We look absolutely awful. No midfield presence, a slow (but brilliant) #10 being played as a striker, terrible against the press… and the whole time Dean just stands around with his arms crossed.

Early days but he’s fixed nothing tactically that needed fixing and we are paying for it.

Also, holy fuck, Harry Toffolo is… I mean good grief, he looks completely lost.

 

[Alan]

We won! 3-0, with some help from Austin going down to 10. I am desperately curious what y'all might think about the red card. And the disallowed goal...

May post more details later, but fuck, I've just finished a technical interview and I am dead tired.

Ferencváros Vs Braga tonight. Força Braga! Panathinaikos or Real Betis await in the next round, wouldn't be against a trip to see João grace the Europa League for one last, last, last time (until the next time because he ain't fucking retiring!).

I’m thinking about going to the second leg next Wednesday..

I’ve personally offered him terms to play in CLT.

Don’t tell him I don’t have a job at the club. Or anywhere.

Do it! I wanted to go to tonight's game but I couldn't make it work.

I'd definitely try to go to the next round if Braga make it through

Do you think getting tickets will be fairly easy? They don’t get huge crowds from what I can see.

I'm sure Manuel will sort you out, I can put you in touch if you do go over
