Gallagher was in the right place for the option of the great pass to be made. Great positional play from him.Quote:

Writes his name into history with the first goal Austin FC score at their new stadium
This guy is a serious talent. Can the irish unleash him? Or is the Wesley Hoolahan incident season ll? A new beginning
Why this guy is not in the squad? He is extraordinary. Its like wes hoolahan case PartIi
Amazing player
Travel restrictions, he wouldn't have been allowed to leave the US
Ok but this fellow is incredible talented
Playing midfielder there Kenny needs to give this fellow his his deserved chance. Along with Ronan. Happy Fathers Day enjoy a BBQ or some italian pasta with boiled meat or chicken in sauce. Profitez de les Fêtes des perès
World class pass tbh.Quote:

An element of luck in both, the defense really should have created those crosses
I’d like to play against those defenders.Quote:

Definitely. Their record in continental competitions is quite poor as well. Quite surprising tbh when you think how long it's around and it's gained very little in terms of quality traction or even international coverage. It's still a retirement league in lots of waysQuote:

There are more players like Carlos Vela who have come relatively young and played a good few years. There more that happens the better it will be for the league in the long run.Quote:

not sure about Williams, he was ahead of and rated higher than Lenihan at Blackburn before he left for LA and while at Blackburn was in Kenny's first ireland squads - and his appearances for Ireland, all at left-back, were good. Always thought it was out of sight, out of mind since he moved away.Quote:

For me this Gallagher fellow must be in international football for Èire.
On Derrick Williams that position as left back is cover by now, but I agree he played well when given the chance, he also scored a screamer! Please people on this stop slaying down your own footballers, I'm not asking for as you say watch them with "green glasses" but a bit of objectiveness,
I'm not a huge fan of MLS myself but it is a very good level, and If a guy like Gallagher can create out of nothing world class assists on regular basis, cap this guy. And tell Gallagher to have a better agent.
Austin FC win 2-1 over Dallas to advance to the MLS playoff semi-final. He's been converted to a left back and seems to be doing quite well, played the full match.
was in Austin in the summer actually and he was alright but its so much slower there.
Good Goal.Quote:

Unlikely he'll ever be a serious option for us, but it's clearly a career ambition for him. Switching from being a winger to a left back probably increases his chances from no chance to maybe a very slim chance.
Very good un-selfish play ~ Not to go for goal himself.Quote:

amazing, not calling up this fellow is utterly snobbish when Ireland is losing games after games with world football champs like haalandless Norway, Finland, Wales - THEY WERE DEFEATED BY AWFUL IRAN - Luxembourg, England by 3 etc etc etcQuote:

Very clever run ~ Nice pass ~ Very nice goal.
When what could be said to be a bad ball, becomes a great ball!Quote:

Is he one of the best players in the MLS?Quote:
