The southern regions of the realm are popping off. The one they call

is encroaching upon the saltwater peninsula and our old ally “El Rey” has fully turned to support the Argentine.
We call upon you to take advantage of the moment…to bring us reinforcements.
Backheel master Saba said his celebration of pointing to a watch was him saying “It’s my time.” Mentioned “being a professional” a lot, and noted that even though he just arrived, pros should be able to pick up tactics quickly. Also said he had been training with his…1/2

That said, we don’t want to be afraid to admit when we’ve missed the mark, and this is one of those times.
Xande Silva: “What made us win tonight was the togetherness.” He noted his good relationship with Saba as well, and simply said he’s just doing his job.

Saba said he’s so happy for Georgia qualifying but he’s going to do his best to make sure he’s in the squad come summer.
“I’m doing my job” when asked about how he was all over the pitch today.
#ATLUTD
It's crazy. When Atlanta gets to feeling it, they start running rampant and look so incredibly dangerous. Every counter looks like it has so much promise, and the good thing is...many of them do. Case in point as I typed this TYLER WOLFF AND SABAAAAAAA
Giakoumakis mentioned his lack of proper sleep and everything coming off the international break. “Game felt more like a Scottish game than American” 😂 Bit frustrated at certain aspects of the game but in reference to his challenge he said he made sure the guy is ok. 🙏

Luke Brennan humble as always, said he wasn’t sure if he impacted the game when he came on but hoped he did.
(He did)
Just said it was that “next man up” mentality and wanted to prove himself.
Dax McCarty announces he will retire at the end of the season.
Atlanta’s struggles this season shouldn’t overshadow what’s been a tremendous career for him. One of the good guys 👍
It’s been a hell of a ride but it will be over soon. Thank you doesn’t even begin to do justice to all the people in my life who have helped me live my dream. My cup is full ❤️
One can only imagine why this postage stamp-sized pitch has been roped off for
#ATLUTD
at the training ground.
Almost like they’re prepping to play on a patch of grass not meant for the beautiful game. Like a baseball field.
It’s early, got no sleep, barely had coffee 😅
Caleb saying it’s a draw that feels like a loss, especially when they created so many chances and it felt like they were the better team. Said they’ll bounce back though.
Truly something special when nearly 68K (or more) show up for a soccer match in the ATL ⚽️

surprised us and said he was doing the whole interview in English (and did amazing) 🔥🔥
He spoke about building chemistry with

Luis Abram and Noah Cobb every day and how they still have things to work on, but praised the clean sheet 1/2
#ATLUTD
@_andrewgutman_
said he just blacked out at the game winner and turned around and saw Almada celebrating with his shirt off 😅 Praised the fans and how amazing they were.
Talked about how
@_milesrobinson_
shut down that side on defense. Also, said our podcast was fun 😁

What's better than a Thiago Almada match-winning free kick deep in stoppage time?
A Thiago Almada match-winning free kick in stoppage time...set to Titanic music, of course.

Thiago Almada has arrived in Brazil and Botafogo fans were waiting 👀
Still awaiting official announcement from either side. Likely won’t come from Atlanta United until tomorrow at earliest due to holiday

Miranchuk comes across as a humble guy just dedicated to bettering the team. He mentioned that in his moments watching the team's games, he noticed the squad has a lot of back and forth running in straight lines and not as much of a focus on positioning, which is curious from an

Ummm....Etienne got fouled, no call, and Giakoumakis made sure the Red Bulls new about it goodness he put homie on notice. Wow....here we gooooo yellow cards everywhere.
Free agent James Rodriguez, there's a chest of about $50 million in Atlanta, part of which could be yours🤔Perhaps just pretend it's Atalanta?
Would y'all consider James
#ATLUTD
fans? We've heard plenty of opinions going both ways.
🚨🇨🇴 James Rodriguez, set to be available as free agent terminating his contract by mutual agreement with São Paulo.
He’s set to part ways with the club after excellent Copa América.
James would love to return to European football.
Wiley talked about having fun getting back to playing the LB position since it’s his OG spot. Spoke about matching the Red Bulls intensity; talked about not using his age as an excuse and wanting to go out there & play soccer & have fun 🍻. Prepped for Yankee Stadium next week.
Pineda gave a shout to the video analytics folks which helped them pinpoint some details they exploited on the third goal.
Said he was “so upset” about the NER goal and giving up the clean sheet because he wanted the defenders to have that reward.
#ATLUTD
Asked Bogi Bogdanovic about wearing a new
@ATLUTD
kit tonight,
“Me and Clint love soccer so we just wanted to show love to our soccer team.”
On whether he knew they haven’t been released yet,
”I think Clint told me. I knew this was the new kit.”
Luke Brennan all smiles, super happy about the goal and loves the praise from the team and coaches. Just wants his team to win 😂 Felt the young guys were all ready for Toluca, it wasn’t a big jump to take on the team and reminisced about his time as a ball boy 🫡
#ATLUTD
IT’S ATLANTA UNITED MATCHDAAAY!
The squad is back, the Benz is open, and it’s time to right many wrongs in soccer over the past week.
Giakoumakis has all the motivation in the world and Almada is the wonder kid and Chicago is on Fire soooo
L. F. GG!!!
Thiago Almada all smiles, said he’s been working on free kicks with Clement Diop in trying to trick the keeper to think he’s going the other way. Said he’s taking it “day by day” in getting better. Also said he’s just focused on Atlanta and will see what happens with offers.
Wolff spoke to the grind and toughness this team showed, even when having so many young guys on the pitch. Mentioned “it’s a proud moment for everybody” to see the guys he’s come up with continue their upward trend. Guy just stays humble.

So,
@MiguelBerry92
clearly thrilled at the goal but pointed out the team’s frustration in giving up the late goal.
Said he hopes the floodgates open from here and noted that the team is trying to cut the little mistakes that’ve led to goals.

Franco Ibarra spoke on playing more as a 6, which he said (and I think most people see) is his preferred, natural position. Described it as the position he grew up playing and loves being in midfield to let his team know he’s got their back. Said if Luiz or someone else gets 1/2
Luke Brennan is eating people alive I freaking love it. He has gotten under their skin more than Jose Martinez with Philly lmao.
(But like let's not push a teenager bro)

Uncle Arthur is slinging money at soccer in Atlanta, & the next beneficiary is the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Training Ground! Atlanta United's home will nearly double in size thanks to a $23 million expansion.

Almada talked about how this performance was the way forward, and while any team in
#MLS
can beat any other,
#ATLUTD
is a very strong side. Also mentioned he hasn’t heard of any offers from Europe and he’s fully focused on Atlanta. Emphasized this was a much better match.
🇺🇸 Atlanta United are closing in on deal to sign Norwegian CB Stian Gregersen from Bordeaux.
Agreement in place between clubs on $2m fee, player discussing personal terms now then time to travel for medical and contract signing.
Ajani Fortune joking about how he wasn’t sure if the whistle would blow before he got subbed on 😂 but his main goal is to get back out there and play again. Talked about being a leader with
@atlutd2
and how he has so much to learn from the 1st team guys 1/2
