It should be noted that Damion Downs is not *currently* a good soccer player.

Tom Bogert@tombogert.bsky.social · 2d ago🇺🇸🔴 BREAKING: St. Louis City is finalizing a deal to sign American forward Damion Downs from Southampton on loan, per sources Loan is thru MLS sprint season next summer. Downs, 22, spent second half of last season on loan with Hamburger SV www.nytimes.com/athletic/liv...
Holse has taken one in the last 3 years in 🇹🇷. Missed it
Chris@hootski.bsky.social · 4d agoGood thing we’ve got another attacking DP… (No clue what his track record is)
I do, however, hate to inform you of a potential disaster. + Navarro - Hartel - Löwen means Navarro may be taking penalties. And he’s awful. 8/14 (57%) in his MLS career.
Michael@chatcitytactics.bsky.social · 5d ago#AllForCITY cannot fathom how good of a fit RN9 is for this system. Some people are saying
The twelve million dollar question looms… Can Navarro beat out Becher in training so Yoann Damet plays him? #AllForCITY
Since we’re in the business of selling talent, can we please sell this guy so he can play? #AllForCITY
Please note: Corey Wray just went on the #AllForCITY record. We are moving on Löwen as his age does not align, twilight years, blah blah blah. Meanwhile, one month ago, he tried to sign Hugo Cuypers, who is NINE DAYS younger than Edu.
He’s settled in now and playing well beyond what I expected. His ground dueling keeps improving, and he’s learning to shape his body better to defend the space behind him. There’s still room for improvement in how he uses his size in aerial duels.
St Louis CITY SC@stlcitysc.com · last wk.POLVARA 📈📈📈 Secures the match winner and his spot on the MLS Team of the Matchday!
Yoann Damet continues to win games while his front office does their best to make his team worse. Damet is the paper, Gigliani and Wray are the cracks. #AllForCITY
If Dante passed with his left foot like he shot that ball with his left, I’d never utter a bad word again
Michael@chatcitytactics.bsky.social · last wk.Polvara doing things from midfield you say? 👀 🤔
Löwen was holding Becher back too. We've unlocked peak Becher. Wray knew what he was doing all along. #AllForCITY
Michael@chatcitytactics.bsky.social · 2w agoMarcel Hartel was holding Simon Becher back
To put on my journalist hat for a second - cries of “Diego, you suck, it’s all your fault” from the north end. And now taking that hat off, Hell yes.
Mǎțan-Becher-JSB gonna hit like crack against the Western leaders
Crazy that the Tina Turner kit isn’t even gonna make the top three worst #AllForCITY decisions in 2026.
I’ll be chanting Eduard Löwen at 10 minutes. I hope you’ll join me. #AllForCITY
