They say Curtin isn’t good at tactics. Maybe he should attend this course.

  1. Regarding the 22 Under 22: Trusty, Fontana, and Real were all included in the master list.
    .
    The top 10 will be released soon…my guess is Trusty will be in it giving the Union 3 players in the “22”

  2. Another tidbit to add per a Tannenwald article…
    .
    Henan Jianye, whom Dockal will return to after his loan here, are in second to last place and in danger of relegation. I wonder if that drops his market value if the Union wish (and they should) to make his stay more permanent. Could also mean other teams look to make a move for him too.
