What a match. Mendy will never do that again. When Aaronson is in sight, he'll boot it in the future. Tuchel have second thoughts about not serving suspension?! Great job by NBC/USA to go to natural sound after the match. Leeds was joyous and nobody left. The Man of the Match, Jesse Marsch, soaked it in. This is the best of the Premiership!
Grant, Christian sifting his way through the United dumpster fire would be better than him rotting away on Tuchel’s bench. The only reason he’s still there is to sell #10 Chelsea shirts in the US. Tuchel didn’t really respect him at Dortmund, obviously doesn’t now, and won’t going forward. Time to go.
Great game from Leeds. If you’re a USMNT fan, or a “homer” American, Leeds have got to be your “side chick” team, no matter who your favorite team is.
Grant, is there a chance Christian would move out of the EPL? I would love to see him get playing time even if it means changing leagues. I previously saw rumors of Italian clubs being interested - are Newcastle and Man U the two most likely destinations?
My comment is motivated by the unfortunate head-on-head contact that occurred with 75' showing on the clock.
The NBA protects players' ankles by making it a foul for a shot-defender to encroach into the jump-shooter's landing area. (The shooter's "cylinder")
Soccer could protect players' brains by making it a foul to jump in sideways to head a ball that the opponent has better position on.
In other words, use your feet in advance to pre-locate your sorry ass where you can jump vertical. Otherwise, you have pre-lost the header. If you can jump really really high straight up, good on ya'!
I'm thinking of the Chinese young lady at iirc (?) World Cup '99 closing her eyes and grimacing her face and coming in sideways to injure iirc (?) Abby Wambach.
Jesse Marsch did a Mick Jagger impersonation when his impressive Leeds scored today. A very confident enthusiastic Marsch and his team are the main soccer conversation around the world today, well done I say. As a former Derby player we hated Leeds in my day. Congrats.
Great thoughts. Marsch’s strategy is insightful if not brilliant. Seems (much) easier to score in transition before the opposition’s defense is in place than passing the ball sideways and backwards to make sure your team is in perfect formation before your team starts its attack (which some clubs still do).

Aaronson is becoming America’s “best” player. That makes us all terrified that he’ll get injured just as the World Cup begins. Nonetheless…..
I assume, b/c Marsch and his staff are engrossed in fitness details, that he gives his team plenty or rest. It's a long season.
Oops, Jesse Marsch called Cagliari, “Cag-lee-ar-ee” at the press conference.
"heavy metal football." Wonder if that moniker catches on. Well played, Grant.

Thanks and great work as always
# Marsching On Together !
I’m desperate to see Pulisic unleashed like Aaronson has been at Leeds. We need him amd all his talent at USMNT; I want him away from Tuchel.

The loss of Rudiger hurts. TT’s system needs the dominant defender.

LOVE IT!!!!! And this from an inveterate United fan who always disliked Leeds for traditional reasons!!!
