Blue Balls NYCFCBlue Balls NYCFCS11E14: Elbow Smackaroni & ThreesGood morning, good afternoon, good night and good luck Blue Ballers — following a massive 3-1 victory over Gregg Berhalter's visiting Chicago Fire, your Boys in Blue are starting to feel optimistic about the season again. And with NYCFC sitting at 6th in the east, we've got good reason! We cover a punchy yet pinioned Chicago, goals and goal support from Bakrar, Wolf, and Martinez, the solidity developing in the front AND the back (don't ask about the crack), and the beginning of what might be a run of lineup consistency in Pascal Jansen's NYCFC. PLUS: Gold Cup gripes, hot ta...2025-05-271h 06Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastCooking With Pascal / Ep 496 / Blue City Radio Episode 496: FC Cincinnati entered CitiField on a five game winning streak and second in the MLS Supporter’s Shield standings.  NYCFC have struggled for consistency both on the road and at home.  This was not a match up on paper at least that filled NYCFC fans with confidence.  Enter Pascal Jansen and his tactical acumen.   This week the two Mikes, Anderer and Allen, look at the challenges facing this team with the nagging injury to Keaton Parks, but also with the inability for any winger to lock in their starting role.   2025-05-061h 06Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastPascal’s First Road Victory / Ep 495 / Blue City Radio Episode 495: Credit to Roberto Abramowitz and his Spanish language broadcast team for the statistic that NYCFC did not win any of their first five road games three times in their history: 2015, 2023 and 2025.  The huge question is that does Pascal Jansen have what it takes to earn a playoff bid from that position.  Jason Kreis and Nick Cushing both failed to reach that goal.   This week Mike and Mike are joined by Christian Smith to discuss the signing of Aiden O’Neill, the victory in Toronto and all things NYCFC. 2025-04-301h 29Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastCaptain Obvious / Ep 494 / Blue City Radio Episode 494: NYCFC entered Gillette Stadium on Saturday night fresh off a victory against a strong Philadelphia side and hoped to carry that momentum on the road in Foxboro.  Unfortunately New England had other thoughts and the performance from NYCFC was simply not good enough as eloquently shared by the captain, “We need to be better.”   The sad part of that quote is that there was no further follow-up given and honestly not even needed.  It was poor all around and the team knows it.   This week Mike Anderer, J.R. diBart and Mike Allen take...2025-04-231h 12Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio Podcast“Risa’d” In the 40th Minute / Episode 492 / Blue City Radio Episode 492: One of the most famous names in baseball is Wally Pipp.  Ask a true baseball fan and they’ll tell you the story not of Pipp’s success as a player and World Series Champion as a New York Yankee, but about his headache that kept him out of a game on June 2, 1925. In NYCFC lore there are a few memorable substitutions of note for both good and bad reasons.  One of the most negative of those occurred Sunday afternoon when Birk Risa was removed from the match in the 40th minute and replaced by Str...2025-04-091h 15Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastThis Loss Will Hurt For a While / Ep 491 / Blue City Radio Episode 491: NYCFC lost on Saturday in Atlanta.  That’s not breaking news to anyone who follows the team, but the collapse from the club is indicative of a much bigger issue.  David Lee has not given head coach, Pascal Jansen, enough resources to make tactical adjustments necessary to win games.  It is that simple.   This week Mike Anderer, J.R. diBart and Mike Allen are back to dive deep into what is happening with NYCFC’s depth deficiency.  The trio also give their thoughts on the leadership from captain, Thiago Martins. 2025-04-011h 15Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastNYCFC U18 / Ep 490 / Blue City Radio Episode 490: Blame it on the injuries.  Blame it on the playing during a FIFA window.  Blame it on David Lee for not signing any players to replace James Sands, Santi Rodriguez or Jovan Mijatovic.   NYCFC crawled into Lower.com Field on Saturday night to face the Columbus Crew and it was not a prototypical NYCFC game.  The team was outshot 24-4 and only had 40% of the ball. The bright spot of the game was seeing the team close out the draw by the hairs on their legs with three 17 year old players on the f...2025-03-261h 17Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastThe Evolution Of Jansen Ball / Ep 489 / Blue City Radio Episode 489: Ten year’s to the day from NYCFC’s historic home-opening game at Yankee Stadium the club welcomed back to the house that Jeter built for another match.  New England limped into this game missing their newest signing and star striker, Leo Campana.  The Revs also have lost the first three games of the 2025 campaign to build upon the streak of losing the last four of 2024. It would be New England that took the early lead off a Thiago Martin’s own-goal, the third of his career with NYCFC, but goals from Julian Fernandez and Alon...2025-03-181h 47Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastPascal and Johnny Make Sure the Tin Shines / Ep 488 / Blue City Radio Episode 488: It’s an anniversary moment ten years in the making.  NYCFC versus Orlando, but this time the Boys In Blue were the home team and the victors on the day. Pascal Jansen took his “Team First” mentality and pushed the squad to raise their intensity and two second half goals were the difference in NYCFC’s eleventh home-opener and the penultimate event at Yankee Stadium. This week Mike Anderer, J.R. diBart and Mike Allen are back to break down the game, share their fondest memories of the past 10 seasons and highlight some play...2025-03-121h 39Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastRegressive Instead Of Impressive / Ep 487 / Blue City Radio Episode 487: There was an excitement about NYCFC under Pascal Jansen after last week’s game in Miami.  The team played with intensity and was clinical in their finishing.   This past weekend in California the Boys In Blue look to have regressed to resemble their weakest moments under Nick Cushing.  There were long stretches of possession that did not result in chances.  There were players out of position and a midfield without a talisman to close out the match.  It was quintessential 2023 NYCFC.   Mike Anderer, Mike Allen and J.R. diBart take a look back at th...2025-03-041h 14Blue Balls NYCFCBlue Balls NYCFCS11E1: The Man Who Stared At GOATWe're back, blue bitches, for Season Eleven!

We break down every white-knuckled moment of NYCFC's draw against eleven ten of Miami's finest, including the cards that were and the cards that weren't, the beginning of Alonso Martinez' golden boot pursuit, the Gulf of Messi Goals, Mitja's Cristian mission, Jansen's first chjances at NYCFC glory, and the holes in the roster we long desperately to fill.

CitiField only had a capacity of 25,000 on a cold windy Saturday night in late November.  As the game wore on the Red Bull fans that were speckled throughout the sea of blue started to gain in confidence and in voice and by the 85th minute they were in control of the Queens atmosphere.

The game was decided by penalty kicks and Matt Freese proved to be just as important in the moment as he has been all season long.

But after a 3-1 victory over visiting Cincy, we've got ourselves a three-game series and the extra motivating factor of a cross-town rival in the postseason. Could NYCFC actually make it to the second round of playoffs? Or was the defensive devastation we saw on Saturday just a flash in the pan?

To be fair, there was a show called City Post Game Live in 2016-2017 that had a little traction, but I digress. This week Mike Anderer and Mike Allen turn on the mics during the last 15 minutes of the NYCFC away match in Cincinnati and then discuss their reactions after the final whistle.

Once was in 2020 during the “Covid” season that will forever be tainted by the impact the pandemic had on rosters, venues, and fan support. The second time was in NYCFC’s inaugural season under head coach, Jason Kreis. Back in 2015 NYCFC was a project. It was not well-oiled machine like it’s counterpart in Manchester. But in 2024, already with a championship and an international trophy already in its case, the team should be more than a project. More than a young coach an...2024-10-221h 28Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastLet’s Call It New York City FC Arena / Ep 472 / Blue City Radio Episode 472: After a statement win in Harrison NJ last week, NYCFC had to host two games as the home team in the same arena. Both games the boys in blue were victorious setting up some great momentum going into the international break and then the return to Decision Day in Montreal on October 19. This week Mike Anderer welcomes back Haylon Harroo from Five Borough Footy to give some commentary and analysis on Nick Cushing’s team as the regular season comes to an end and the post season looms on the horizon. 2024-10-101h 23Blue City Radio PodcastBlue City Radio PodcastTotal Eluberation / Ep 471 / Blue City Radio Episode 471: Historic moments often come completely by surprise. NYCFC’s first MLS Cup Championship was the pinnacle moment for fans, but it was a cup final. Expectations were high, but the outcome was plausible. The team had earned a chance to have that special moment. This past week NYCFC traveled to their home away from home in Harrison, NJ to face their cross-town rivals and the outcome was far from expected.

It has been a theme and talking point about this young group of players all season long and this week was a perfect example of the chasm between the lowest performances and the strongest team play.

After 28 games it is becoming clear that NYCFC under Nick Cushing is a mediocre team. Occasional flashes of brilliance, long stretches of possession without purpose, but worst of all a commitment to underperforming talent. Last year in 2023 the team suffered through the extended Barraza experiment and in a “rinse and repeat” pattern 2024 saw the Bakrar drought go on and on. Even after the emergence of Alonso Martinez, Bakrar still finds his way on to the pitch for 20 minutes per match.

Since day one there has been chaos and controversy. So why after 10 years would fans expect anything less when it comes to elements as beloved and cherished as the team badge?

NYCFC flew to Columbus and played the reigning MLS Champions to a hard fought 2-2 draw for 90 minutes. The final score would be 4-2 after the home side notched two goals in stoppage time. While NYCFC head coach and players blamed Ted Unkel for the loss, the reality was that NYCFC wasted numerous chances to put the game away.

His arrival was met with high praise and fanfare. He was a key to the NYCFC offense often drawing double team defense that created space for others to operate. He was a magician with the ball at his feet, but following the departure of Ronny Deila Talles was mismanaged. Nick Cushing’s style didn’t favor Talles’s talents and the situation quickly became the cliche of the square peg in the round hole.

Sadly during the 4-2 victory from Friday against Orlando City, the winger suffered a devastating injury that will most likely see him out until next season.

In Pirlo’s final season with NYCFC he started less than half of the team’s regular season games and was an unused sub in 14 of 34 matches.
