I was on @fox13seattle 's Washington Sports Wrap with & I was able to share my thoughts on the Seattle Times decision to cut their soccer coverage. It's a short-sighted and arrogant decision by a publication that has the responsibility to cover all major teams in the city IMO.

This sucks. It underscores the continued need for independent coverage of the game in this country. Yes, Sounder At Heart is amazing and covers Seattle soccer incredibly well, but not every market has an outlet like them. It's discouraging to see actual media just "surrender" and stop coverage.

Was just informed that @seattletimes.com is ceasing beat coverage of soccer. Massive loss for both local and national soccer community.

The biggest post-transfer window #allforcity takeaways are about the midfield makeup: 1) The midfield diamond has become just as prevalent as the box midfield that was the primary shape for most of the season. 2) The rotations have meant that the 6s/10s are not always the ones creating that shape.

Yoann Damet made a crucial adjustment to Toronto. FC's man-marking scheme during the hydration break on Saturday night. The change opened the door for #Allforcity to take over the match, the latest win for a manager who continues to pull the right strings. www.talkinsoccer.com/the-shift-th...

How good was CITY defensively against Toronto Saturday? Very. They limited Toronto to 0 great shots and only 3 good shots. Without the injured Djordje Mihailovic to get the ball to Josh Sargent, it was very easy for CITY to isolate Sargent, as reflected by 6.43 rating and being largely invisible.
