Posted Wednesday August 20, 2008, About: Heerenveen seeking paydirt for Bradley

This is what I feared would happen with Bradley...Stuck in the benelux just like Gooch...Was really hoping the Everton or Boro offers were true but apparently they got cold feet. Another season at Heerenveen won't kill his career but Heerenveen might be losing a chance to cash in...I seriously doubt that he'll replicate his 19 goal total from last season.

good for Edu to escape the MLS....Any news on Bradley or will he be with Heerenveen another season?

Posted Tuesday July 15, 2008, About: Is Benfica done with Adu?

Adu needs to have a big Olympic Tournament and his stock will soar once again...I wouldn't be shocked to see him wind up being a hot property if he can produce in Beijing.

The French League is kinda boring and defensive...I'd love to see Adu move to England or Italy at some point....but NOT France.

Adu only sat on the bench last year because the manager was under pressure to play Portugese legend, Rui Costa in his final season before he retired. I would think staying in Benfica is the better idea for Adu.

As for Bradley, I think the English teams cooled on him after watching him look very ordinary in his June appearences. The vast majority of Bradley's goals at Heerenveen were on rebounds and loose ball scrambles, created by a very offensive oriented team against inferior competition. Bradley lacks vision, passing touch and is not a great shooter. Furthermore, he's prone to getting booked because he tries too many sliding challenges. I think Bradley should stay in Heerenveen and learn how to play a more controlled holding MF without making so many foolish challenges.

Could be insurance for Owen, who might leave...

Bradley needs to play in the Premeirship.

Bocanegra can still start in the EPL...I think he would fit nicely at WBA....

EJ needs to play in EPL and start or move to Holand.

Posted Sunday May 25, 2008, About: Keller on way out of Fulham

Keller should just retire to be honest...

Bocanegra should stay in Europe if he has any hopes of keeping his central defender spot on the US national team. I'd be surprised if PSV really wanted him...sounds like his agent speaking there. Coventry and Osasuna are more believable. I think West Brom would be a good location for him. They're gifted in attack but don't defend much....I reckon he could start there.

As for Bradley, he needs games in European competiton and Stuttgart didn't qualify that I know of. Everton did and if he can get there, it would be fine but they are talking about adding Arshavin or Sidwell. Staying at Heerenveen over Stuttgart would be better...and having a good summer with the US national teams would probably help make him one of the hottest winter signings.

Bocanegra got a raw deal in Fulham...Hodgson didn't like him.

Posted Saturday May 24, 2008, About: Keller on way out of Fulham

The buzz surrounding Bradley appears to be dying...I wonder if he'll suffer the same fate as Onyewu who was long rumored to be coveted by big clubs but never got out of Liege...

I'd love to see Bradley playing in the Premeirship.

I think Eddie Johnson deserves a chance to play with Fulham. Give him the first month of next season and if he doesn't produce, then loan him out.

Keller is done in Europe, Nobody will have him or pay for a 38 year old well past his best.

I hope Adu can get out of Benfica this summer. Perhaps a few results in the USA friendlies and at the Olympics will be enough to get some offers from England or Italy.
