From the article: "While Ramsay left on his own accord in January, accepting the West Bromwich Albion coaching position, the end of his two-year tenure in Minnesota included acrimony with Chief Soccer Officer Khaled El-Ahmad"

I've heard rumblings of this all off season and the way Ramsay left for a no win situation indicated some sort of disagreement with the FO

According to Greder, Loons are also looking in MLS, USL and abroad but McCowatt might not happen this window

I finally had a bit of break from my new job and life in general and I was thinking about why the front office hasn’t made any transfer moves yet. I don’t want to place the blame on a single player, but the delay coincides perfectly with Kelvin Yeboah’s drop in form following his penalty miss against Austin.

Here is my theory (pure speculation at this point) on what's going on behind the scenes:
Up until the Austin game on May 10th, things were looking decent. The early-season losses to Vancouver and Nashville had been addressed, there was no real cause for panic, and the team was playing well through adversity. (For ex.: come from behind win against Columbus and Dallas win on the road). Kelvin was performing exactly as the FO expected: 12-game MLS stretch: 7 open-play goals on npxG of 7.07.

Then he misses the penalty against Austin, and something clearly shifted. Since that game, his npxG has plummeted to 0.62 in 5 games. He hasn’t scored from open play and picked up a suspension. The team hasn’t talked much about the incident, claiming it was addressed and all is well. But obviously, something is still off—even if it's subconscious and they genuinely think the air has been cleared. Based on the on field results, the relationship with Kelvin does not seem fully repaired, and his confidence is low. I have to say he worked hard in the Vancouver game defensively but didn’t do much up front.

Before May 10th, the FO looked at the data and didn't see an issue at the top of the pitch. They probably identified needs at other positions and planned to just make adjustments around the edges. They likely chalked the few games before the break off as a blip, assuming results would return once play resumed. But suddenly, there is a glaring need at the top of the formation that they didn't plan for.

I also think their hesitation to pull the trigger on a new striker comes down to the youth pipeline. The FO sees Momo’s progress and Marcus Caldeira’s form with the Twos. They probably feel that even if the Kelvin situation doesn’t improve, one of those two might be able to grow into a starting role by the end of the season. I believe Momo is close, and I really liked what I saw from Marcus with the Twos.

I hope Kelvin proves me wrong today against San Diego, he promised my son 20 goals in Indio, so hope he proves me wrong today.Thoughts anyone?

The CEO of StubHub exposed in SEC documents to own a hedge fund thats scalping millions of tickets on StubHub making a fortune

Hey everyone,

With most of the tournament behind us and only 4 rounds remaining, we are officially shutting down all ticket listings on this sub.

Here is why: ticket prices are about to hit historic highs, demand is getting absolutely insane, and that is going to attract an influx of scammers. We simply don't have the bandwidth to police it, especially since only about 15% of you actually followed the posting rules we put in place back in April.

What happens next:

• Starting July 4th, a AutoMod will automatically remove all ticket sales, trades, and requests.
• The mod team will also be manually scrubbing any that slip through.

If you still need to buy or sell, there are plenty of other subreddits dedicated to tickets, or you can just use the official FIFA Marketplace. Look, we get it—the FIFA fees are brutal. But at this stage of the tournament, it’s honestly the safest and most efficient way to handle it without getting ripped off.

Thanks for understanding, and let's enjoy the final rounds!
