Phil continues to show he achieved the top level of playing quality strictly through instinct. It’s why he speaks in abstracts like “enjoy the ball”…#rctid

Nah. Antony never had any confidence on ball in 1v1 situations. He’s all about confidence on ball in open space, but freaks out when defender approaches. He’s knows his tactical ball skills suck running at speed. #rctid

“Enjoy the ball.” If Antony and DDC could realize that concept, we’d be dangerous in attack. #rctid

I would argue the single biggest issue for Timbers is they have no idea how they want to score goals. They try to make it up on the fly, the result being lots of possession, few shots on goal, and lots of turnovers. #rctid

Wait until the results from her experiment are public. The rest of the nation will want to jump in line behind her.

@wyden.senate.gov you are dong a great service to American society by tracking the money flows around Epstein nightmare. Thank you.

The encouraging points yesterday: 1) aggressive transition on ground after turnovers; 2) more vertical and diagonal runs in and around attacking 18; 3) shots on goal from outside 18. If we keep hitting these 3 each match, we will be tough to beat. #rctid

If Trump is intimidated by you to the point of fear, you are doing something right.

Take a bow Rory McIlroy!! 17 times at the Masters, no wins. 18 and 19 are both wins, joining Tiger, Jack and Nick as the only golfers in history to win 2 Masters in a row.

It’s pretty clear at this point our top choices for Def MF are Caicedo, Barrett and Chara. The transition to attack has not been as good as it was today. #rctid

I was a bit surprised when VAR wanted a review. Looks like Tillman was transitioning to onside position. Hairline call at best. #rctid

Gotta say - win, lose or draw this is the best this side has looked this season. Long, long way to go before they can be called “good”, and it was vs. rotated LAFC, but this was their best showing at both ends. #rctid

Wow. Absolutely horrendous far post marking. No one is ball side or goal side on Porteus. Saved by VAR from yet another shameful defensive error based on lack of effort. #rctid

Another great example of def MF dropping off attacker outside of 18, creating a dangerous opportunity for LAFC that Pantemis has to make an excellent save to keep out. #rctid

Our defensive MF has got to learn to not collapse into the 18. #rctid

Liking what we’re seeing from Caicedo and Bassett together so far. Coordinated, aggressive. #rctid

Notice how we’re breaking lines in transition with vertical balls on ground? Sure haven’t seen a lot of that this season. LAFC MF is looking like 🧀 which helps our transition, but it’s great to see us taking advantage. #rctid

It’s not the 50V that matters. It’s the amount of current at 50V that matters. Static electricity can be 10-20k V; it has no meaningful current, so the spark is trivial.

Nah. We can’t handle Canada.🇨🇦

Defending has two primary goals: stop the opponent from scoring; transition the ball into attack efficiently. We are horrible at the latter on a data basis…yet when we actually transition in a way that exploits our speed, we are successful. #rctid

He’s going to TACO once again.

Is “I’m content” sufficient?!? #rctid

Phil’s transition strategy - possess off turnovers - has proven itself a failure with this style of roster over 2025 and the first part of this season. Either he works a faster transition or he’s out. #rctid

Joe Lonsdale, be proud of yourself. You created 3 points for VAN all on your own. @proreferees.bsky.social #rctid

That is simply ridiculous. Lonsdale, you are an idiot. @proreferees.bsky.social #rctid

Wow, clean as a whistle tackle from Chara get booked. Pull on jersey…make me laugh. That’s been going on all night on both sides. #rctid

Calcedo locked down his spot in XI tonight. #rctid

We’re getting pinned deep - exactly what we can’t let happen with our poor transition game off take aways. #rctid

Antony, put the ball in front into space so Kelsy can run onto it instead of hitting it at him while he’s running full speed…🙄 #rctid
