Improving his card
Héctor Herrera starred in a comical moment when he found out his FIFA 23 sheet, was dissatisfied and upgraded his evaluation. The midfielder revealed the numbers with a fan. Herrera considered his ratings to be higher than they turned out to be in the end.
"In pass I think it should be more, but it's okay, there is no ped*," resigned the Houston Dynamo player.
New eyes
With the current campaign over and Herrera recovering from injury, the Houston team must focus on rebuilding for 2023. They will do so with the help of a new coach after the dismissal of Paulo Nagamura.
Most of the responsibility will fall on the shoulders of the new head coach, and in a recent conversation with Jeff Carlisle, Onstad indicated that in his search it is crucial that the ideal candidate "has MLS experience" and a "track record of success in the league".
Complicated season
Things have not turned out as Héctor Herrera and the Houston Dynamo had thought. After the Mexican midfielder's arrival last July, considered as the possible major, the Dynamo have plummeted, being officially eliminated from the fight to reach the MLS Cup playoffs for the fifth consecutive season.
Geodis Park
Geodis Park is in the city of Nashville, Tennessee, has a capacity of 30,000 spectators and is the home of Nashville SC, an MLS team. It was inaugurated on May 1, 2022 and cost 335 million dollars.
He could go to MLS
Luis Suarez returned to Uruguay to play with his first team, Nacional. 'Lucho' is already visualizing the future and hinted that the MLS is a great opportunity to continue.
"It is one of the options that I see very close, but now I don't think about it. I think and enjoy playing for Nacional," said the striker.
Alliance among the best
During a presentation at the World Football Summit in Seville, Spain, Liga MX president Mikel Arriola added that the Liga MX and MLS alliance will put the national tournament among the top five in the world by 2026.
