It was a tough week four indeed vs the NYRB.

Here’s a example of a terrible defensive line and goal keeping. Coach, how about putting Bobby Shuttleworth in there?

It wasn’t a pretty game. I’m not too happy with the line up. But life goes on.

Minnesota United today announced that it has reached an agreement with Club América of Liga MX for the transfer of Darwin Quintero, who arrives to the Loons as the first Designated Player in club history.

Hard fought game, but in the end, it's another loss. Coach did changed up his line up. I see that a combination of Ramirez and Quintero will be a good one for up coming games. That missed header by Ramirez, that could have been something and the offside goal that was taken away would have tied up. It's still early in the season.

Another injury struck the midfielder Finlay. It is not looking too good early in the season. After the first week lost, a two game wins streak and it's all down hill since. Currently sitting in 10th place with a record of 2-5.

I'm still hopeful for a better season than 2017. Making the playoffs should be the team's goal.

Saturday’s game was both intense and awesome. What a win. That 3 point frogleep the team from 10th spot to 7th.

This team is going to breakout sooner than later with the sub option like Toye and Gomez.

Two wins in a row propelled the LOONS from 10th place back into 5th in the Western Conference. MLS power ranking went from 20th to 15th.  O0

It’s going to be a tough game this week against Sporting KC. Praying for a tie at least.

To be honest, I was really surprised when the Loons tied with the top team of the Western Conference. Nonetheless, the Loons fell to number 8 in the seeding. Currently tie with Galaxy and RSL in points gained, 13.

Montreal Impact is currently sitting in the 10th place in the Eastern Conference. Hopefully we can get a win here this weekend.

That's Michael Bradley of the USMNT. We whooped him and his team Toronto FC last Wednesday. We were always one step ahead in every plays. Final score was 4-3. What a place to be, the sound and sight was just amazing.

3 straight wins and back in the 7th seed, border lining the playoff spot. On the road for the next five games. If we can steal a few wins we will increase our chances in making the playoff in our second year of existence.

It was a tough loss and a heartbreaking one on Saturday against Seattle. That game has playoff implication written all over it. Today, it's even more sad that the team has announced the release of our first and best striker Christian Ramirez to LAFC. He has been struggling for the earlier games this season. They have acquired two key players and his replacement. Sad, but I understand the nature of the sport.

Season will come to an end this Sunday. Another year without a playoff birth. It’s been real and I’m looking forward to next season with a brand new stadium.

Third season in the Loons’ franchise and it’s kicking off tonight against Whitecaps. It’s playoff year or bust for me. So looking to this season. Got my ticket to see LA Galaxy.
