We used to have the best announcers in the league, it’s the worst part of the apple deal. Ya they might’ve been biased but now they sound like they don’t give af about either team.
Yeah, they didn’t do a good job analyzing that play. The VAR probably took so long because they probably had to look at if Tai was offsides when the ball was first played in, and then if Elliott actually played the ball.
I think that if Thai HAD been offside, that would have been interference. But Elliot didn't touch the ball, so the offside line didn't reset when he was offside. On the initial header back towards goal that served as the assist for Bueno, the Montreal defender's foot was actually back behind Thai, thereby making him onside.
I swear the ref started to put the whistle in his mouth when the Union cleared it to midfield, but Montreal got possession back and he let them have possession for another 30 seconds until the Union won it back then immediately blew the whistle. Add in the commentators that are just about openly rooting for Foot Club and it feels like shenanigans might be coming. Or not. I'm a hot dog salesman wtf do I know.
So we’re just getting straight up Montreal announcers now? They aren’t even trying to hide their bias…these 2 fools are among the worst I’ve heard on the Apple TV crews, and that’s saying something!
What's sad is the past three years they build up a solid fan base, season ticket sales rise, and Sugarman does nothing over three years to alleviate an aging squad. If this doesn't show you what bad ownership is, I don't know what does. The whole league is evolving, but we continue to sign Dutch 3rd division 17 year olds. What a disgrace.
I'm cautiously optimistic, though I doubt in play we see much of the diamond.
Does Rafa have a secondary position or does he just play CAM? I suspect we see Gazdag come on as a forward.
He's not perfect but how do you coach your way out of no investment during the off season and your best keeper being out for half the season while your only center backs collectively have the worst seasons of their careers?
I don't think this is on him
Fuck Kai Wagner. You can't call out ownership, act like your teammates aren't putting in a shift, and then casually jog back leaving Harriel to deal with 2 attackers for the 4-2 goal.
I know Josef Martinez has been injury prone these last few years and is starting to become a MLS journeyman, but I'd like to see what he could do with the Union.
The Union create chances, we need someone who will act on those chances.
How did the announcers not even discuss the possibility that Elliot never touched the ball? The flight of it clearly didn’t change lol
They’re horrible. That’s why they don’t know what to talk about.
They sound bored as all hell
We used to have the best announcers in the league, it’s the worst part of the apple deal. Ya they might’ve been biased but now they sound like they don’t give af about either team.
Yeah I remember really liking y’all’s old announcing crew! I suppose I should’ve watched this game in French…
Yeah, they didn’t do a good job analyzing that play. The VAR probably took so long because they probably had to look at if Tai was offsides when the ball was first played in, and then if Elliott actually played the ball.
Elliot no touch. Baribo onside. Praise the Lord!
Wow I’m shocked… one of the announcers actually said “maybe he didn’t touch the ball” in the postgame recap I applaud you
When does Andre come back?
Rick looked like me trying to save a shot in Rocket League. OOF
What a save! What a save!
Close One!
No problem. And then a bunch of *** because I tried to type in Lol.
I’m starting to look at those Matt Freese bank commercials with rose colored glasses now.
That’s. So. Union.
You spoke too soon.
Dude clowned us with a Flash mask afterwards too? Literally the shittiest superhero?
And here we are...again.
This is embarrassing. What the hell is going on with us.
Chris Donovan might be the worst striker to ever wear a union uniform
I’m so tired of watching him lightly jog everywhere. Quinn played a great ball to Baribo and Donovan was standing at midfield not pushing forward.
Dog water. Given chance after chance after chance and he’s not improved. Get rid of him. Idc I’m tired of seeing 25 on this roster
PAIN
and we gave him an extension this past off season. lol.
He’s dog water. Cut his ass now I’m tired of seeing him on this team. He’s god awful
Insane to think Baribo had to “prove” he was good enough but that kid gets hand gifted game time lmao
But he’s a local kid!!! 😂
That’s why he was handed time lol
With the way we have been playing recently is a prime example why the USL and MLS should combine to relegate teams.
I don’t think they could make me more sad than the Phillies jsut did but I bet they’re really gona try
I think that if Thai HAD been offside, that would have been interference. But Elliot didn't touch the ball, so the offside line didn't reset when he was offside. On the initial header back towards goal that served as the assist for Bueno, the Montreal defender's foot was actually back behind Thai, thereby making him onside.
These fucking announcers are talking like they are at a golf tournament, Jesus
Apple really got the two most uninterested people in soccer to commentate
My kids: “If I was only listening, I wouldn’t know anyone scored a goal. These announcers are sleepy!”
I've heard golf announcers more animated than these guys.
Jesus Good
“If it takes this long it’s a goal”
I swear the ref started to put the whistle in his mouth when the Union cleared it to midfield, but Montreal got possession back and he let them have possession for another 30 seconds until the Union won it back then immediately blew the whistle. Add in the commentators that are just about openly rooting for Foot Club and it feels like shenanigans might be coming. Or not. I'm a hot dog salesman wtf do I know.
For real, they sounded straight up disgusted when Quinn scored
We stink.
So we’re just getting straight up Montreal announcers now? They aren’t even trying to hide their bias…these 2 fools are among the worst I’ve heard on the Apple TV crews, and that’s saying something!
Ok we now have guys pulling out props on us. Shut it down til 2025.
Look Guys…they let us bring 1 water into the SOOB during a heat wave. What’s all the complaining about???
finally. woohooo.
Rick has to come out stronger there.
yeah that was bad. veterans CBs could have done better cleaning up too
I’m so tired of Glesnes and Elliot. Play Makanhya and some whatever other 17 year old we have. This is disgusting
If it’s not one thing, it’s another. What the hell happened to this defensive unit?
What's sad is the past three years they build up a solid fan base, season ticket sales rise, and Sugarman does nothing over three years to alleviate an aging squad. If this doesn't show you what bad ownership is, I don't know what does. The whole league is evolving, but we continue to sign Dutch 3rd division 17 year olds. What a disgrace.
I feel like I'm listening to a late night radio show with these commentators' lack of energy.
I always mute the stream and [put the radio on](https://975thefanatic.com/)
I tried but I can't get it to sync up so there is a 3 second delay that bugs me but I wish there was a way to get home and away broadcasts.
Oh, the radio is always like, 2 minutes ahead of my stream since I sail the seven seas to watch lol
lol only 6 people on the bench for Union. Big yikes.
DOOOOOPPPPP
Just once I’d like us to play well in both halves
At the dying minutes again… come on defense
This team loves to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
That damn bell is annoying
I hate that thing
Asshole should get a red for that nonsense
I wanna barf
How can we be so bad that the 14th place team is having their way with us.... I know we've been struggling but God damn
Because we're the 14th place team
I’m embarrassed.
It’s time. Blow it up. Thanks for the fun ride the last three years or so. Doop
Gazzi's on the bench; hes back!!!
The 4-4-2 should be interesting, wonder how long it’ll be before Gazzi is on the field
I'm cautiously optimistic, though I doubt in play we see much of the diamond. Does Rafa have a secondary position or does he just play CAM? I suspect we see Gazdag come on as a forward.
Jim’s gonna get fired for this display
He won’t. It’s not his fault the team doesn’t spend money
He's not perfect but how do you coach your way out of no investment during the off season and your best keeper being out for half the season while your only center backs collectively have the worst seasons of their careers? I don't think this is on him
Needs to get fired
Does he though? Look at this pathetic roster.
Jim has a loser mind set let's sub out the one striker on the field and hope for a draw that is not respectable
Fire him? What’s another coach going to do with this roster?
Sit McGlynn and Wagner, figure out how to play an offside trap and attack through the middle.
Ahhh shit. Here we go again.
Average age of the starting xi is just under 24.
Jesus Good.
Jesus good
I am here to Doop and I am am Dooping.
:/
If I was in goal they would have scored on that one 😐
I’m tired. 😪
This central back pairing are toasted. Can Apple refund half my money for the year 😂
We have to have at least one lawyer in here. There’s 13k sub members now
Mother humper…
And there it is.
Didn’t even try to block that.
Glesnes stepping to no man’s land and harriel whiffing on his 6th challenge of the half. Team is a joke
Comical, even.
i felt nothing when they just scored.
What a collapse
Bro are you fucking kidding me?
Then I die
The ref with the fist bump after the yellow lmao what is this
Sell the damn team
COFFIN TIME STOP BEING LAME ASS BITCHES SONS OF BEN. FUCKING DO IT
#SELLTHETEAM
Someone needs to be fired. Today.
I like this change of shape , but maybe it’s just that it’s something different
That is shocking.
I think Elliot didn't get the touch to it (maybe). Baribo was onside when Flach headed it back in
Whew doop
LMAO the announcers are fucking clueless
We are dropping so deep already
We’re playing like everyone’s dog died at halftime
Glesnes has been just plain awful
You could say this for basically every game this year unfortunately
Oh yeah that’s what I meant
i’m generally rough on quinn, but even without goal i like what ive seen from him tonight
Close the curtin after that substitution
There is no way that Semmle is worse than this
🤣
Bros…
We're incapable of keeping leads this season...
Maybe if they just bought fucking players then we wouldn’t have to have our souls crushed every match
Union are spending money like it’s 2012.
And Fuck these sleepy assed biased Announcers in particular. As if the result wasn’t torture enough!
Quinn “holds the ball until he has 3 defenders on him and loses it every single time or rockets it super wide” Sullivan
Tai for Mbaizo???????? JIM NOW IM UPSET
So Sullivan forward with Gazdag supporting?
I have no idea what this shape is anymore
tai was dead. mbaizo at least can cross the ball. sulli just moved up top
I don’t wanna :(
The mls really needs to fix not being able to call up union 2 players to fill the bench rather then only a limited number of short term loans
Or the owners could actually spend money on players 🤷🏼♀️
What are they reviewing?
Looked to me like Baribo was offsides, in front of the keeper
100% was. keeper had to account for him.
I should probably just turn the sound on
Captions brother
Pathetic fucking marking. He waltzed right through
They don’t even have any other left backs. Awesome
Last thing we need is our only left back getting hurt
Why does it feel like we are playing down a man?
Well good thing they let edwards take it
I know he’s a kid, but Rick should not be starting
the seeds of this were planted in January-March with that offseason. They are underperforming even my low expectations.
We don’t have a single actual striker on the field. We need to make moves this window and it’s looking like we aren’t even going to do anything
Montreal is inept also…coulda been 3-2 there
Well… they made up for it
How predictable
yep Harriel you are so athletic
He's not good enough
Guess who
Cooked
The main play by play guy sounds familiar. Why
Someone graffiti Sugarman Out at the stadium.
> 2-2, the most dangerous lead in soccer `-Jim Curtin, probably
I feel bad for Rick :( poor kid has to deal with this ass team
Rick was ass today, bring back Semmle, at least he tried to block
I agree but he’s just a kid. Sad thats what we have at this point
Pains me to admit but Union matches have finally been relegated to second tv with volume on mute
Try the Bananas darling, they’re sublime
I’m losing my mind
At least we won that Mickey Mouse Supporters' Shield that one time!
Fuck Kai Wagner. You can't call out ownership, act like your teammates aren't putting in a shift, and then casually jog back leaving Harriel to deal with 2 attackers for the 4-2 goal.
Is the Montreal pitch smaller than pitches in the states? It looks more on par with EFL, or are the cameras closer?
Curtin is giving off some Dragula vibes.
Is it me or is Donovan playing on the right and Sullivan is more through the middle?
flat 4-4-2. Sulli RM
Just checking, is this an MLS match?
I predict maybe one shot on goal from the Union tonight..
I sincerely apologize.... DOOP!
I know Josef Martinez has been injury prone these last few years and is starting to become a MLS journeyman, but I'd like to see what he could do with the Union. The Union create chances, we need someone who will act on those chances.
Hubbys prediction is that they fire Berhalter after Mondays game and hire Curtin for the World Cup.
that would be a disaster for all involved
Ooh Quinn cross it.
Do I see confidence?
It's almost as if a tactical change to suit the roster as it currently is was a good idea or something.
Lol we're fucked
God dammit
Oh goddammit
Ngl that was pretty good
How does that little man Tower over our defense and get that header....
I think it was the run-up
effort
Can they turn the commentary up a bit and literally EVERYTHING ELSE down .
DOOP DOOP
Coming back
Chess not checkers there from the Hebrew hammer
My lawn would love some of this rain right about now.
wow. that was kinda a lousy var check…… but we’ll take it.
Giving the English crew at euros a run for their money
Baribo was onside when the offside line was reset though.
yeah? hmm. will have to rewatch
It was really tight. But the anouncers being clueless has made the conversation focused on the entirely wrong point of contention
Can’t believe that was given 😅😅 Even VAR feels bad for us
They didn’t explain the goal - he was on sides when flach played the ball in since Elliott didn’t touch it
Ah, makes sense. I’m watching Canada Chile at the same time so I’m not really in the game
Anyone got a stream they can DM me please?
Here it comes
Why the actual fuck are we settling in for a draw when we have consistently sucked ass at that?
This team is so ass bro why do we put ourselves through this 😂
Ok wtf happened. I got off the train it was 2-2 🤬
Was that not an inderect kick? How the fuck is that standing?
It was direct (iirc it was a foul that was called). And even if it was indirect, Elliot touched it before it crossed the goal line.
