Josh Seargent with a brace for Norwich today. 16 goals involvement’s in 1588 minutes this season; 39 goals and 9 assists for them in the last 2+ seasons. Under the radar really good in the championship.

Is he under the radar? I see goal highlights from him all the time 😂

His 2nd one today was really pretty.

Until about 10 years ago he would be the great USMNT hope based on those stats. Now he is on the periphery. And for a 25 year old to put up those stats he’d normally be a target for a mid table EPL team but he’s just kind of doing his thing.

I get what you mean. Just saying that anyone that considers themselves an NT fan should be well aware at this point that he's been crushing it in the EFL.

I’ll say this, given the injuries we’ve got going on right now. I’m glad he’s around. I think we’ll be OK with him as our third choice.

i’ll say this, right now he’s on the periphery of making World Cup 2026 team. The question is who is the third striker? And who knows? Maybe he moves into the second spot. And is it a given that Balogun is the number one? Right now (healthy), yes. Next year?

I'd take him over Vasquez right now. 

Pepsi is our clear #1 and AFAIC Balo needs to earn that back (although I guess both of them are fucking hurt now).

Sargent and BV fighting for the 3 spot I think. 

Even Haji doesn't totally suck. We are in a much better spot at that position than in years past.

Milan’s manager said that Pulisic isn’t fit/healthy enough to go 90. He missed a pk yesterday for first time when taking one for club or country.  

Does he skip the nations league next month or just play part time?  Don’t want him injured.

Ever since BJ won the Nations League handily, I kind of don’t give a shit anymore. 

It is funnier that México keeps failing than it is awesome that we keep winning.

Sargent easily clears Vazquez if healthy.  I think we would play Haji and even Weah at the 9 before a mid-MLS forward who failed in the Mexican league.

If he’s healthy, he’s playing. If Milan has health concerns, they can hold him out. But I don’t see that happening. Unless he’s really hurt.

Hopefully, with Milan crashing out of the Champions Leauge, the silver lining will be that CP will have more time to rest between matches.

I don’t think that you can hold his decline in production against him in Mexico. 

He started off strong, but then his production went downhill fast. 

Once I learned that his wife decided to stay in the U.S. with their newborn while he had to try to focus on playing and forget that he was missing out on all of the firsts of his first child and wank away while his betrothed sex partner was a thousand miles away must have been pretty shitty. 

I think that seeing how he plays in Austin’s with his baby and baby mama/wife at his home every day will give us a better idea of how he’s doing.

Can someone post the screen caps?

Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are already out of the DFB Pokal. But there is a third division German club making a fairytale run— Arminia Bielefeld.

They are now in the semifinals and are captained by 30-year-old American midfielder Mael Corboz. 🇺🇸 

This is his story.

Corboz was born and raised in Mobile, Alabama to French parents and grew up in New Jersey.

He has two sisters and they’re all around the same age. His older sister is just a year older than him and his younger sister is two years younger.

They all grew up playing soccer.

Corboz went on to play college soccer for Rutgers University and then the University of Maryland.

After graduation, he signed a homegrown contract with New York Red Bulls but was waived in a couple months prior to the 2016 season.

So he went to the USL.

The midfielder signed for Wilmington Hammerheads in March. But with the club planning to take another hiatus from the USL, Corboz left by August.

He knew that if he wanted to continue to play pro, he had to go to Europe, and that’s what he did.

He moved to German 3. Liga side MSV Duisburg in August 2016. A couple years later, he moved to another German club Wattenscheid 09.

In 2019, Corboz gave the Netherlands a try and moved to Go Ahead Eagles.

By 2021, he was back in Germany with SC Verl.

A year ago, Corboz moved to Arminia Bielefeld. Due to his leadership on and off the pitch, he became their captain within eight months.

He’s now living dream he’s always had as a kid— playing in front of 27,000 passionate home fans as they are turning heads in Germany.

Arminia Bielefeld have knocked out Werder Bremen, Union Berlin, Freiburg, and Hannover 96. 

The first three play in the Bundesliga and the last one play in the 2.Bundesliga.

Now, they’re in semifinals with Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig, and Stuttgart.

Arminia Bielefeld are four points away from a promotion playoff place as well. 

They have another American in the squad— Isaiah Young.

Corboz’s sisters are also living their professional dreams, with both playing over in France.
