Schmetzer reflected on the situation of the club and considering the standards, saying he does not consider the 2024 season a successful one due to finishing the year trophy-less. Despite the electric comeback from having the worst ever start to a regular season, Schmetzer wanted more than the deep runs in the US Open Cup, Leagues Cup, and playoffs. The failure to win the Cascadia Cup was another point. While Schmetzer recognized that other clubs would consider making those deep runs in the respective competitions as a success, he also said “for our franchise that really doesn’t hold water for us.” (1 📸 pics.on.the.pitch / soundersfc) (2 📸 lovinpnwsports) - #sounders #soundersfc #seattlesounders #mls #seattle #ebfg #football #soccer #soundersmatchday #mlssoccer #seattlesounders #areasportsnetwork #houseofsounders
