    Morocco doesn't have Qatar type cash. Barring some resentment towards the US or sentimentalism for another African Cup, it's likely a winner for North America tomorrow.

    Y’all should check out American Fiasco, podcast by Roger Bennett. Good chronicling of US Soccer after the 94 World Cup through the 98 World Cup. That era was the planting of the seed of my fandom.

    In other news arsenal is getting a steal if they get Lucas Torreira for that price/wage. Baller.

    Everything I’ve read says it’s basically done.

    Beside confimirming that, David Ornstein also confirming Sokratis to be announced in July.

    So far, I like our business. I think Butland is the play keeper but I suspect Emery and Sven will shop elsewhere.

    So Spain fires their manager three days before their first game. This WC is gonna be wild, IMO. Brazil to win, though.

    I really hope you’re right. I’d love to see our group win it.

    What time (EST) do they announce it?

    What are some guesses on the going rates for tickets to games - box office and on the street?

    Warm bodies are an upgrade for Arsenal’s back line.
