The silver lining to our 2 midweek rivalry matches in 2026, is that they've made the @stlcitysc.com / @sportingkc.com return to play rivalry match in STL on 7/16 part of a Rivalry Week showcase, leading up to the World Cup Final weekend.
Midweek stinks, but this isn't a bad one to be part of.

MLS is moving to a single table format, but with an American twist!
According to @theathletic.com, w/the schedule change in 2027 there will be 6 teams in 5 divisions.
Here’s my take from @flyoverfooty.bsky.social on how that should play out.

A way-too-early look at the @stlcitysc.com 2026 depth chart w/our 24 players currently under contract.
Obvious needs: LB and CM but also notable depth issues at CB & depending on how ready our HGs are, at LM and RB too. And your obvious desire for proven goalscoring. #AllForCITY

More contextual fun w/data on the below chart re: Bürki v Lundt.
g+ is cumulative here, so the 2567-916 minutes does matter... but you can see that even if Lundt had 3x the minutes to meet Bürki, there's still a big gap in g+ for the 2 keepers. Definitions in the 2nd screenshot. #AllForCITY
