gigi riva Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 kind of a shitty way to end his MLS carrear but now time to show his stuff in Bruges, (Beautiful City kind of reminds me of Copenhagen and the women there are lovely).

Ruud Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 9 hours ago, El Diego said: Reducing it to two legs was necessary for allowing more playoff teams, which in turn was necessary due to increased expansion. The league also said that it was to make the regular season mean more, as higher seeding gives you home field expansion and potentially a bye. At least MLS doesn’t seem to mind tinkering. They will figure it out. It’s a disaster format now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoccMan Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) The format I would like to see is a two game total points series rather than a two game away goals rule series. The reason I like the total points two game series is that it keeps both teams in it right to the end of the second game . If a team has a bad game in the first game and is blown out 4-0 for example your still in it in the second game in a total points series , in a away goals rule series you lose 4-0 or more and the probability of coming back are pretty rare , yes it happens once in a while where a team comes back but very rarely. In a total points series you win the second game and force extra time and then penalties and you always have a chance no matter how bad the first game went .

A team gets up 4-0 and both teams might as well park the bus and just save energy for the next game. Playoffs need drama. KO games are fine just add in an 8th team, fix the scheduling so 4 QF games aren’t spread out over 6 days, and then reseed after each round if they really want to give the top seeds an advantage.

Stryker911 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 There is going to be racist people anywhere he goes. Bruges is a beautiful city with amazing architecture, culture and history. In my limited experience in the city a few years ago everyone was friendly and welcoming. Ruud 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I know this is stating the obvious but damn I hope he tears it up in Belgium. I know some were hoping for a higher league but I don’t mind the progression. If he succeeds there he can use it as a platform for the rest of a very successful career. Best of luck TB.

Approve My Account Pls Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 In a way, having him come in right when a new manager turns up and with a winter camp + friendlies could be a big opportunity for Tajon to cement himself in the squad earlier than expected. All players start from ground zero as the new boss can evaluate them during the camp. Unnamed Trialist, Xavier., Obinna and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit more ambiguous about the new manager but it could def be an opportunity. Approve My Account Pls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
