USMNT tickets for Sept

Curious if anyone else got the email from a Sr account executive offering tickets for under $30.
On one hand the suspicious side of me is always looking out for scams.
The other side thinks I have been a member of supporter groups and this does look official. Email is to an @ussoccer.org address. It does seem strange to see this email and it looks like the way I’d get tickets is by calling?

Anyone else seen the new transfer rumors floating around about City SC?

Just read that STL is pursuing Jackson Muleka from Konyaspor. From the looks of his stats, he definitely knows how to find the back of the net. Any thoughts or opinions on Muleka? All I know is what is on his stats page and it looks pretty good to me, especially at 26 years old.

NHL tag on STL City jersey????

Did not expect to see this in a random Monday, not sure if I posted this earlier if I did my apologies. (Also I meant to put merch instead of jersey)

Pinstripes: The case for a kit identity

The inaugural away kit is among my favorites to date. Sure, there are changes to be made (I’m looking at you giant sponsor logo), but in my opinion it was clean and classy. I loved that it tipped a cap to St. Louis’ baseball history, with the Cardinals wearing pinstripes as early as 1918. I liked that it was unique among MLS kits. Seeing Inter Milan’s new kit confirmed to me that pinstripes are the way!

I would love to see pinstripes incorporated into either the home or away kit each year as the clubs primary identity. What do you think?!

EDIT: Love the discussion, keep it going!

Quick Summary: A kit identity would generally be welcomed. What that identity should be…? Pinstripes are polarizing. Tina kit is, well, we’re winning so who cares. CITY Red is GOATED.

Hot Take: The Confluence Kit is actually a take on, or variant of, the pinstripe idea (in the metaverse, alternative timeline, and “is a hotdog a sandwich” sort of way)

Thoughts after last night

Becher… oh my god. He actually did it. He had a pretty good game!

Wallem also did way better than I’ve seen him this season. His dribbling was great and that assist to Edelman was beautiful

Holse had his debut. It’s probably not the one he was looking for. But he did what he needed to do. Excited to see how he gets when he’s better integrated with the team

Baumgartl and Polvara are so consistent and are great defenders. Our back line will always be strong if they are both back there

Ref, please call a foul for us. Especially for Löwen. How many times was he pushed and it was no call?

Overall, great game. We had control almost the whole time, they only scored one goal which was great I can’t lie. And we’re back for our next game vs that random team in Kansas. Maybe we didn’t need Hartel after all… /s

Is Damet front runner for MLS coach of the year?

I really can’t think of any other coach in the league that has done so much to preparing his team. I could be missing someone but right now if things keep going the way they are, I feel like Damet should win it.

Video Breakdown: Daniel Edelman Goal (SJE, 8/15/26)

A convincing road win in San Jose last night runs CITY's unbeaten streak into double digits. Let's look at how the scoring started: a Daniel Edelman goal in the 8th minute.

Sang-bin receives Durkin's pass out on the wing, and while the ball is travelling, Wallem begins his run and calls for the pass as he clears into space. An excellent read of where the Quakes defenders were and the empty area on the right side of the box.

Wallem's run splits the two SJ players, and Sang-bin delivers a perfectly weighted ball into space that Wallem crucially allows to run past instead of stopping the ball directly. This enabled him to continue running as the ball passed, putting himself in an attacking position instead of receiving the ball directly with momentum carrying him away from goal.

Wallem then runs onto and gathers the ball, makes a very nice cutback, and spots Edelman making a run towards goal. His marker, Ronaldo Vieira, stopped moving and began ball watching, which, when combined with the movement of the other Quakes defenders, created a passing lane for Wallem.

Wallem's pass is on the mark, and Edelman holds himself up just enough to angle himself correctly to slot it home for a 1-0 CITY lead. An excellent play by Wallem to create this scoring chance.
