Starting today's media availability with Laurent Courtois. #Crew96

Starts off by saying he came back to Columbus because "it's the best Club and it's home." Also adds that he's familiar with the roster.

Everyone's already said how good Matt is at doing what he does, and and they're right, and as soon as I click "post" here I'm going to become a paying subscriber to Tactics Free Zone.

What I can add is that *no one* in the space is better about finding and shouting out the smaller local MLS folks.
Fifteen years ago, I got my dream job writing for MLSsoccer. Last week, that came to an end.

I'm off on my own, and it's time to build something new – with a little help from all of you.

Can confirm.
Qarabag will announce soon, if they haven’t already.
On the MLS side, it’s all over but the signatures.
Keith Naas had this on Saturday.

Prince Forfor scores for the US U17 National Team!

Forfor should feature a lot more in Crew 2 games this season.
