The US Open Cup win against the Cosmos
@phillysoccerpg At home against a second division team. Pathetic.

@phillysoccerpg that works too. Two CDMs and wingers who don’t track back on D much makes for bad team shape. — Scott Ellis (@ScotteDoop_COYB) June 24, 2014
@phillysoccerpg this is just terrible. We are getting dominated. Cruz and Carroll look terrible.
— Chris Lehmann (@chrislehmann) June 24, 2014
@phillysoccerpg so his usual then? — Jason kozlowski (@Jaykoz3) June 24, 2014
@phillysoccerpg hard to watch this after World Cup tbqh. Needs more biting.
— Sloppy (@rolando) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg if this game is a sign of Curtis future then I’m disappointed I bought season tix — Jeff Palo (@JeffPalo) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Caroll, slow ball movement; Wenger failing to finish. It’s like I never left.

.@phillysoccerpg Are you kidding me with the Hoppenot sub, Non-coach Curtain??? His lack of understanding even basic runs kills this team. — Brian DeLawter (@BrianDeLawter) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg too many players that just aren’t good enough. Cruz, Carrol, Hoppenot, Fabinio. Why no Pfeffer? #curtworth

@phillysoccerpg 5 or 6 of my friends could make the Union…and we’re all over 40. — John Shields (@peppwave) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Will they be ready before the end of the game?
— Darren (@Darren_Gz) June 25, 2014
@DaveZeitlin @phillysoccerpg wake me up in the future when the Union aren’t acting like an amateur club anymore. Irrelevant until then. — Christian Jordan (@cjkxx) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg I have literally never seen a referee hand a game to a team
— Bill farrar (@sievetronix) June 25, 2014
@phillysoccerpg Hey, at least there was no biting — Stan Pasukinis (@SPasukinis) June 25, 2014

World Cup Thoughts
A LEGEND is on the field …@FarydMondragon
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) June 24, 2014
And just like that former @philaunion goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon makes history becoming the oldest player to appear in a #WorldCup — Kerith Gabriel (@sprtswtr) June 24, 2014
Remove all of his teeth. Suarez needs a severe punishment. 3 times now.
— Ethan White (@EthanWhite15) June 24, 2014
hungry why wait just bite somebody #suarez — Sheanon Williams (@sheanonwilliams) June 24, 2014
It’s simple what I would do? wait outside his locker room and break his jaw #suarez
— Amobi Okugo (@amobisays) June 24, 2014
He can’t be serious biting someone again…unreal — Danny Cruz (@Dannycruz5) June 24, 2014
Robben has been unbelievable this tournament!
— Maurice Edu (@MauriceEdu) June 23, 2014
Always enjoy the Dutch fans at the World Cup. Entertaining and clever costumes #NED — Michael Lahoud (@MikeLahoud) June 23, 2014
Villa should have been playing this whole time…

If anything, this country knows how to respond. See you Thursday #1N1T — Zac MacMath (@ZacMacMath) June 22, 2014
Bradley will punish himself but I’m not blaming him … Big game Thursday gotta forget about it #1N1T
