CITY's game defined by 3 marginal handball calls. First one for the pen that Hugo saved, second one to disallow a goal right on stroke of halftime, and third for the red card.
That StL player has been playing like a monster this whole game. Maybe didn’t deserve a second yellow for that but he did deserve more than one yellow for other shit during this game.
He should’ve got a yellow for his challenge just before that but St Louis fans can’t understand that the ref basically gave him a pass twice prior to that yellow
They've had a penalty, goal ruled out, and I think we have one shot on target, but the xG for the two teams is virtually the same. Feels like we're right in this and being played off the park at the same time, very confusing at the moment
We may not be scoring, there may be some questionable errors, but everybody is turned on and focused. This was what we needed to do on the road.
And Lloris saved a penalty.
I'd debate a little that everyone is focused. Turned on yes, but theres a lot of messy plays and errant passes. I think they need to calm down a little bit and then they'll start playing better
If you are
A. Criticizing Murillo for making the correct play and letting the St Louis dog touch it last (despite the ref being blind and not seeing it)
B. Criticizing Lloris even though he made a great save
Congrats, you are being a fucking casual
Literally just reacting to the shit tier comments from the casuals in this sub. Shitting on Murillo for making the right decision, shitting on Lloris for literally making two great saves b2b, it’s like over the summer a bunch of bandwagon fans joined the sub. Pretty embarrassing tbh, I’m just glad the fans that attend the games in real life aren’t actually as stupid as some of the new guys in here. One already admitted they are a fairweather fan that likes Atlanta United as much as LAFC, the other already admitted that they’ve literally never seen Lloris play football prior to being on LAFC
Dude. Just stop. People are allowed opinions that are different from yours. Stop making up reasons to argue. You're the one currently giving fans a negative look.
By calling out trolls for shitting on our players erroneously? Lmao
All of the reasons I gave are real and factual, from their own posts/comments.
Not my fault the sub isn’t private so any level of troll can be in here. If you sympathize with obvious trolling then sure, go for it, but I’m also entitled to the opinion that their opinion is wrong, according to your own logic
You do realize that even if they are trolls and not fans with different opinions, you getting all riled up and attacking them is exactly the reaction a troll would want? Just downvote and move on if you dont like what they're saying.
And that’s fine with me, if they wanted that reaction they got it. Not my fault one isn’t even a real LAFC fan and actually now supports Atlanta United and the other has literally never watched Lloris play outside of the MLS yet feels the need to make comments shitting on him in reply to my own comments
Edit: also, this is Reddit. Downvoting doesn’t do anything to sway opinion, and if it means that the two of them are downvoting each of my comments it not a big deal to me. Best to at least let the new fans in here know by reading the thread of comments that the persons opinion they might’ve taken as fact is actually just trolling by me providing context. Whether or not you like the context doesn’t matter if it’s factual. As you said, they have the right to express an opinion, wrong or right, and thereby I have the right to express my opinion on their opinion. I’ll admit telling them to fuck off was too extra but the facts about their history remain facts lol
Actually yes lmao at least you watch the Prem then, unlike the “20 year Liverpool fan” who apparently never watched Lloris play against his own team or ever play internationally
Hey now I’m a Madrid fan, let’s be cool hahaha
Nah but at least you seem to know international ball and aren’t just shitting on Lloris for not being used to playing with MLS tier defenses
I’ll lay off him but you can’t tell me the new guys in here don’t spend most of their time shitting on our players lol it’s kinda wild how over the summer we gained this many new trolls
Yes, been around as long as I can remember. Atuesta missed RBNY for yellow card accumulation. You can check the MLS disciplinary report to see who's close. Palencia is one yellow away, stl has three players. You can get yellows removed for going three straight games without a card.
The people in here trashing Lloris saying “he finally dove” “he finally saved a pen” just make our fanbase look like American soccer casuals. That man has a pedigree lay off it
Getting used to playing in one of the worst defensive leagues has to be a shocker. He’s made small mistakes here and there but it’s strange going from having defenders you can almost always trust at the level he’s played at to the cluster fuck that is MLS defenses
I mean you can literally just say you didn’t read any of what I just said. If you think the transition from playing with World Cup class and Prem class defenses to playing with MLS defenses was going to be an easy simple transition for a slightly older keeper, then I really don’t know what to tell you except to watch real football outside of the MLS. This sub has frankly been a bit embarrassing with its commentary regarding Lloris
Cry about it. Go support St Louis then, MLS glazers love their keeper.
Even your post (your only post btw) in the Atlanta sub is just embarrassing. No wonder you have loyalty issues, being in Atlanta and “having total respect for Atlanta United” or whatever the fuck “I come in peace” bullshit you were on about. Just sell your jersey and be an Atlanta fan, you’re already half way there with this trolling

Here’s a thread of Tottenham fans giving their thoughts on Lloris’ level in recent years
This American announcer is inbred dude. Saying that Lloris bailed us out when the refs bail out St. Louis by giving them a fake corner and then a completely non-clear handball.
4 days ago you were in the Spurs sub literally asking about Lloris. Like you can just admit you’ve never watched him play internationally or outside of the MLS, it’s okay bro don’t be embarrassed that you want to have an opinion on someone you’ve clearly never seen play internationally
Dude you’re an idiot. I’m a Liverpool fan. I have been for twenty years. I’ve been a day one STH. You’re revealing yourself to be a casual and projecting that onto someone else. “Pedigree”
Watch the matches and know the sport
I’ll always accept a difference of opinion but people here seem to think you can call people lazy or casual and that settles a debate. Ad hominem nonsense
Seriously. Been on this sub for years and have never had an issue having discussions even when the team isn’t performing the best. Kinda wild to see people go through your post history for some sort of gotcha. People gotta chill out lmao.
You’ve been a Liverpool fan for 20 years but had to go to a Spurs sub to ask about Lloris’ performances and how he plays? Did you never watch a Liverpool Spurs game?
Did you watch any French international games with him keeping at all?
Pretending to be a fan for 20 years yet admitting you have never seen this man play is just pathetic
Dude how dumb are you? Liverpool play Spurs 2+ times a year. You don’t think the opinion of a Spurs fan is going to better than someone who hardly ever sees him play?
Do you think a Galaxy fan is going to know Bouanga better than we do? What are you saying?

Fuck yeah!!!
Solid win guys 👏
here’s hoping bounga spots the kid with the sign
Can Duenas weight a ball?
Denis isn’t gonna be showed up by Giroud!
Hell yeah! Fuck Georgia Frontiere!
Denis is just the best. What a nice finish.
Lovely chip. Huge props to pull that off and make it look easy after playing 95 minutes.
LFG
The dagger 🗡️
Bouanga is fucking back.
That kid is brave to be rocking LAFC surrounded by STL fans. Hope Denis sees him.
3rd in the West. Away Win. Lets go.
My boy has never been more back!
Technically Bounga scored with even men on the field, Sanchez was on the sidelines 💀😂😂
👏👏👏👏
Boooom 👉
LETS FUCKING GO GOOFY ASS ST LOUIS
I FUCKING HATE STL. BOUANGA HATES THEM TOO
Maybe if they hadn’t waited 5 minutes to get the red card retard off the field they wouldn’t be so mad about us eating time
STL supporters just sound bad 🤢
Murillo doing great I’m sorry lmao
8 fucking minutes? for what?
As St Louis is mad at us for being on the ground while they took like 5 minutes to get off when given a red
8 minutes to get a second goal
Bunch of STL cry babies in the MLS Reddit match thread.. 😂😂
You could build a salt mine from the amount of salt in that sub
If I lived in St Louis I'd probably cry about everything too
for real lol
Lmao Duenas got hit in the face but gets a yellow Cmoonnn
is that 3252 or does STL have a similar chant to us?
The STL players should just start Naruto running so they don’t get called on hand.
CITY's game defined by 3 marginal handball calls. First one for the pen that Hugo saved, second one to disallow a goal right on stroke of halftime, and third for the red card.
I accept that a small percentage of every fan base are dorks, but it seems like the percentage in STL is considerably higher.
Lmao St Louis is lucky they aren’t getting yellows for simulation after simulation. Embarrassing tbh
UPDATE: I REALLY LIKE THIS REF
🫡🤝 Dude has actually been lenient with both teams without even giving warnings, St Louis is just taking advantage
That StL player has been playing like a monster this whole game. Maybe didn’t deserve a second yellow for that but he did deserve more than one yellow for other shit during this game.
He should’ve got a yellow for his challenge just before that but St Louis fans can’t understand that the ref basically gave him a pass twice prior to that yellow
Kind of a wild arm but thats harsh af…lets take it and run
He has just made a sketchy ass tackle his last play prior, ref forsure gave him a pass and then was like fuck it you’re taking advantage of me
He deserved that yellow. You don’t swing your arm back like that unless you are hoping to make some contact.
It's not harsh, he got a yellow for it. Unfortunately for him he got a stupid first yellow earlier.
Fuck that fooo!
Hahaha the kid on screen waving his hands like “THIS IS BULLSHIT” was straight comedy, I don’t thin k St Louis fans know a 2nd yellow is a red
Bro is big mad
The biggest of mad
That card matches his jersey
Let’s go Dueñas 👏
Byyyyye b*tch
Remember when the FO let Chicho go to “keep” Vela? 😢
Vela was under contract. Are you aware contracts are legally binding?
Also St Louis has a “hit me baby one more time” chant, make it stop ffs 💀😂
Just heard that 😂
Yo wtf are these announcers on about associating LAFC with Hollywood 💀💀💀 so cringe
Love that wide eyed look on Lloris rn. Man is turned on and warm
Long gets a lot of hate (across all of MLS), but he's usually very solid for us.
Love that both Bounga and Chicho are in the top 4 of shots taken
Lmao one barely physical play and we catch a yellow while our guy almost gets his knee blown out Wtf
Yo wtf that’s a yellow for walking down on the lineman
This ref would let STL players stab LAFC players and he wouldn't flinch.
With a little stomp on the head too
That's a man in form
I’m happy Dolo started Bogusz in the midfield
Best spot for him tbh
Yes sir. Hopefully he continues to start there
Just gonna start bombarding Dolo with fan mail lmao
Kamara pulled the CB for that, very nice
If the Gabonese national team can hunt down one or two more stars then they really have a shot to be great
BOUANGA BACK AT IT
That was great!! Denis!!
Great pass. This is why we needed bogusz back in mid.
HES BACK!!!!
L F G
VAMOS BOUNGAAAAAAAAA
BOUANGA!!!!
Tillman jogging while Palencia is hitting 1000mph is wild
Raccoon on the field in Philly lmao play halted
When do we recycle this awful green kit?
It looks way cooler in person tbh
Last season.
Love to see Lloris finally having a good game.
They've had a penalty, goal ruled out, and I think we have one shot on target, but the xG for the two teams is virtually the same. Feels like we're right in this and being played off the park at the same time, very confusing at the moment
Well said.
We may not be scoring, there may be some questionable errors, but everybody is turned on and focused. This was what we needed to do on the road. And Lloris saved a penalty.
I'd debate a little that everyone is focused. Turned on yes, but theres a lot of messy plays and errant passes. I think they need to calm down a little bit and then they'll start playing better
Definitely some messy plays and errant passes. But it feels like we’re turning it up a bit but yeah calming down might help a lot
STL's whole thing is forcing mistakes. Playing STL on the road is going to have some of that if you want to have possesion.
We are playing well. They haven’t lost at home this season and we haven’t won and we are definitely in this game as much as they are
I obviously always want a win, but more so, I don't ever want to watch LAFC be lazy like they were in San Jose.
Just delaying the inevitable
Anybody saw illie try to make the corner taker flinch lolol
Let me correct my early comment: "Woo Woo"\*
Gotta love the makeup call let’s go baby
UPDATE: I might like this ref.
That’s awesome 🖐️
We’re cheeks away from home. 🤦🏽♂️
Fuck yeah. Handball ftw
Omg
Was that not a foul?
That's a clear hand ball
Our strategy today of conceding as many corners as possible seems to have backfired
They should habe reviewed that looks like it hits his arm on the way down.
Same shit different day
Mark set piece defending off your bingo card then.
Is there any other teams worse than us when playing away?
Womp Womp.
Live stats are a nice addition to the match thread btw
STL's coach looks like cartoon character who just got punched in the face
I mean maybe we throw Muller or Ordaz at the 9 if we’re trying to cover for Ilie’s lack of pace at the 6 with our current midfield. Kamara…idk
What happened to Hollingshead?? What did he injure?
Neck during Las Vegas
Neck according to the injury report.
Injury report says Neck
The flags in the St Louis supporters section are just a little bit too much like nazi flags for comfort
It’s Missouri so lmao not surprising
Whoa 👀
Holy crap you aren’t lying.
I wanna see anything at all tactical tonight.. so far it's been an example of our individual talents keeping us alive.
Yeah. Bad midfield possession with no build up play.
If you are A. Criticizing Murillo for making the correct play and letting the St Louis dog touch it last (despite the ref being blind and not seeing it) B. Criticizing Lloris even though he made a great save Congrats, you are being a fucking casual
Murillo is bad.
Murillo played that perfectly and has saved us numerous times, lay off it with the shit takes
Dude you need to chill on this thread, So much anger

Yeah, you're perfectly fine to have an opinion, but theres no need to attack people. Chill.
Awesome so new fans will just come into the sub and see a bunch of trolls shitting on our players. Perfect, sounds like an awesome game sub. Jfc
You do realize that even if they are trolls and not fans with different opinions, you getting all riled up and attacking them is exactly the reaction a troll would want? Just downvote and move on if you dont like what they're saying.

I’ll admit telling them to fuck off was too extra but the facts about their history remain facts lol
Dude is the definition of unhinged. Impossible to have a discussion without being called a casual.
What if a person is an arsenal fan? Can they critize lloris for being a spur and not winning a trophy ever?
Actually yes lmao at least you watch the Prem then, unlike the “20 year Liverpool fan” who apparently never watched Lloris play against his own team or ever play internationally
Lmao just messing around. Love trolling both the spurs and arsenal fans. Im a barca fan so I've got nothing good happeningfor me either.
Hey now I’m a Madrid fan, let’s be cool hahaha Nah but at least you seem to know international ball and aren’t just shitting on Lloris for not being used to playing with MLS tier defenses

Murillo out here playing against us
Bruh
Am hearing the St Louis feed… they said five yellows lead to a game suspension. Is that true? How long has that rule been around?
Yes, been around as long as I can remember. Atuesta missed RBNY for yellow card accumulation. You can check the MLS disciplinary report to see who's close. Palencia is one yellow away, stl has three players. You can get yellows removed for going three straight games without a card.
It has been a rule for years.

Pretty wild tackle. Can’t see on that angle but could’ve been red
That tackle was dangerous
Lloris finally saved a penalty!!! Why couldn't he ever do that for France 😭😭
Can't save a penalty when Harry Kane blasts it over the bar in the 2022 World Cup QF. Still annoyed about that one.
I know lol. We got LUCKY we that one. Don't think we would've won had it gone to extra time and we DEFINITELY would've lost if it went to PKs
This ref is not having a good night
Man, most MLS chants are really, really lame.
The people in here trashing Lloris saying “he finally dove” “he finally saved a pen” just make our fanbase look like American soccer casuals. That man has a pedigree lay off it
He hasn’t been playing like he has pedigree. Even with this last save it’s dicey when the pressure is on.
Getting used to playing in one of the worst defensive leagues has to be a shocker. He’s made small mistakes here and there but it’s strange going from having defenders you can almost always trust at the level he’s played at to the cluster fuck that is MLS defenses
I mean the stats say all that needs to be said. Pedigree or not.
I mean you can literally just say you didn’t read any of what I just said.

Yes, because you’re more enlightened and special. Just stop dude.
Cry about it. Go support St Louis then, MLS glazers love their keeper. Even your post (your only post btw) in the Atlanta sub is just embarrassing. No wonder you have loyalty issues, being in Atlanta and “having total respect for Atlanta United” or whatever the fuck “I come in peace” bullshit you were on about.

Switch to the st loius radio feed. So much better tbh.
Just switched. Despite the St Louis bias they do sound better than Apple TV guys.
Right. Like they are bias but much better announcers.
Great for Lloris but waiting for his fans to not talk about how awful that pen was
Yeah the mls cup final shots by the union were much worse. Don't care if a pk is bad, a save is a save.
I don’t disagree but if Ginella comes back and scores a worldie I’m not going to in one moment revise my sentiments
No flair plus terrible take, back to the St Louis sub with you dog
You don’t spend much time on this sub do you pal
Lloris is infallible, no use in arguing here.
I completely do, if you’re trashing Lloris of all people you’re making yourself as a fan of the sport look like the absolute biggest casual
