Yep, but he's been solid all year - the Manchester clubs are machines that will make any single player on an inferior team look foolish from time to time
 
And Pulisic is out tonight against Spurs. Too bad, hope he gets better soon
 
I still say the glass is half full.

With Yedlin? For sure - he's a consistent starter on a team that can't generate too much offense and relies on the counter

That was a wild game today between Schalke and Dortmund involving Weston McKennie and Christian Pulisic. Both started but McKennie and another Schalke player were pulled at 33 minutes. By that point BVB were up 4:0 (including an own goal). After 10 yellows (two resulting in a red for Aubameyang - the attacker in front of Pulisic) the game ended 4:4 with Schalke's last goal coming at 90+5. Pulisic played the full game but was not one of the scorers.
 
In the German second division, Julian Green scored today as Greuther Furth attempts to climb out of danger of relegation to 3rd division. He had been out hurt and was a substitute the last game or two. Finally he started, played 90 and scored at 79 minutes in Furth's 4:0 win at home against St. Pauli. Terence Boyd scored twice for Darmstadt. Haji Wright at Sandhausen was brought in late to try to develop some attack to even up the score against Heidenheim, but his team fell 1:2. Jann George has been working his way back into Regensburg's line-up after being sidelined with a broken toe. He came in after 66 minutes and helped the Regensburgers secure a win against Duisburg, another team promoted to the Second Bundesliga just this year.
 
I can't wait for a McKennie-Pulisic 6-10 pairing when the time comes.

Crazy game.

Does McKennie play a 6? Or is he more an 8? I've only seen him twice, but neither time was he playing the 6. ????

He’s an 8, heard him described as more of a piano carrier than a piano player. Supposedly Schalke projects him as a 6 over the long term.
 
Yedlin went 90, almost had a nice assist had he timed his run correctly.
 
Just read some reviews of Yedlin's recent play, and it isn't good. Wouldn't be shocked if he loses his starting job soon

Eric Lichaj has a brace at half as Nottingham are beating Arsenal 2-1 in the cup. One was a stunner as well.

I was hoping for a 3-1 Arsenal win with Lichaj scoring a consolation goal. Good for Lichaj, but damn, I'm really getting tired of Wenger.
 
We botched this one hard. Jonathan Gonzalez of Monterrey has (or us currently in the process of) filed a one time switch to become a Mexico international. Great prospect, only 18 years old, and has stated in the past he wanted to represent us.
 
Him, McKennie and Pulisic should have been our midfield for the next 5 years. Unbelievable how we messed this up
