Some of them, this was just MLS based though. Just noticed Sargent is back at Norwich. 2 goals in 4 games this year.is this supposed to be the Olympic squad?
Cowell made his Liga MX debut on Sunday, entering in the 62nd minute in Chivas’ 1-0 loss to title contenders Tigres. Cowell was active throughout the second half, coming close to an equalizer and demonstrating his pace on the left flank. Gago was pleased with Cowell’s performance, telling reporters after the loss that Cowell has adjusted well since arriving in Guadalajara.
But before Cowell stepped foot on a Liga MX pitch, pundits in Mexico referred to the signing as simply another example of how outdated Chivas’ nationalistic stance truly is in today’s football — a sport that has become increasingly internationalized at the league and national team levels. Liga MX in particular has been flooded with foreign players, many of whom are signed by Mexico’s biggest clubs.
MedioTiempo’s Miguel Angel Arizpe wrote that Cowell’s arrival should be considered a watershed moment for the club. It’s an opportunity, Arizpe opined, to end “an ancient, mediocre, loser, and non-productive rule.” In other words, Chivas could’ve said outright ‘We’ve signed a foreign player,’ but they didn’t.
Arizpe didn’t hold back regarding Cowell’s legal status as a Mexican citizen, either.
“Let’s not fool ourselves,” Arizpe said. “Cowell received dual citizenship because his mother’s cousin’s uncle’s great-grandmother’s granddaughter ate at Taco Bell. That doesn’t make him a player that characterizes the Chivas spirit.”

Yes, too much opportunity for collusion if groups only had 3 teams, need to stay at 4 teams per group so the final 2 group stage games can happen simultaneously.I thought this was the WC where groups only had 3 teams? That get voted down?

Would guess something like noon/3pm/6pm/9pm eastern for the group stage matches that have 4 matches per day, and 1pm/5pm/9pm for the final group stage games that have the simultaneous games (3 sets per day) and the round of 32 matches where there are 3 per day. 4pm and 8pm eastern for the knockout rounds that have only two games per day? More games to squeeze in, but usually schedule matches so they don't have overlapping windows if they can help it, right?Will be interested to see what those start times are
At that age, I would recommend Soccer Shots. Those coaches did a great job with the basic skills of soccer and making sure the kids had a good time

Once the little man gets to be 3 he can join Fusion rec leagues where it is basically (volunteer) parent coached and its 30 mins of "training" (the club does provide a training outline for the coaches) and then a 30 min game with another rec team. Cheaper than Soccer Shots by a fair distance because there is no coach to pay. But I think it is still good for the kids to just have fun and get touches on the ball! My daughter has been in this since she was 3 and loves it.
