Posted Wednesday October 07, 2009, About: Figo wants Messi to join Inter Milan
Is Figo still playing for Inter?
Posted Tuesday October 06, 2009, About: Barca confident of securing Fabregas
Yes, Xavi may go in a few years, but why spend all the money on Cesc when you've got Johnathan Dos Santos.
Posted Monday September 28, 2009, About: Red Bulls passing on Campbell?
Love it...two of the biggest names in USA Soccer in Arena and Landy and it's still referred to as "David Beckham's" Galaxy. At Sol's age, he should be looking to find some work in the broadcasting booth. Who wants to chase 19 year olds around at his age? Write a book and hook up with Sky Sports for the World Cup.
Posted Friday August 14, 2009, About: How Donovan contracted swine flu
Is this his excuse for why he got torched on the second goal?
Posted Thursday August 13, 2009, About: Beckham likely to make Premier League return
Just another excuse to show Goldenballs with his shirt off. The facts are simple:

- He can't go back to Man U
- As long as Benitez is at Anfield he won't be going there.
- Wenger wants youth
- Hiddink wouldn't want the circus

If he set his aim lower (Fulham, Spurs) he could go back, but then he wouldn't be playing in Euro competitions. I see him returning to Milan.
Posted Thursday August 13, 2009, About: Howard: Ref tilted in Mexico's favor
Gotta move on... Using the ref as an excuse is weak.

They need to focus and win all remaining matches. If they finish first they will forget all about yesterday's match.
Posted Monday August 10, 2009, About: Bale interested in AC Milan move
Bale and his agent need to focus on helping Spurs accomplish something first.
Posted Monday August 10, 2009, About: Barca may pursue Arsenal star
Why would FCB waste the money? Iniesta and Xavi will be together for another two years at a minimum. Where does Fabregas play?

Side note, I was AMAZED at the youngsters that played in the FCB US Tour. Busquets, Messi and Bojan are already well known, but to see the talents of Jeffren, Pedrito, Muniesa, Dos Santos and others....DAMN! Future looks bright for Barca.
Posted Monday August 10, 2009, About: Beckham blasts England critics
It's amazing how focused Beckham is on his legacy. the guy had a good career, but he will always be ripped for one thing or another....some valid, some not.

He just needs to ignore the static and move on. He should be more worried about the Galaxy not making the playoffs.
Posted Sunday July 19, 2009, About: Whitbread on Millwall transfer list
Saw him play last season at the Den. He is solid. Definitely deserves a shot at a bigger club.

Millwall need the money. I see him being sold off to a decent mid-table side.
Posted Monday July 13, 2009, About: Beckenbauer slams Real Madrid
Why would Madrid even need Ribery? Ronaldo, Kaka, Robben, Sneijder, Raul, Higuain, Benzema...why would you spend even $50M on him with all that firepower.

I think it's an understatement to say that the front three are well covered this year. They need to put some money into the other 8 now.
Posted Monday July 13, 2009, About: Barca still pushing Eto'o on Man City
No Tevez and no Eto'o yet for Man City. Siddy are desperate to make some noise. I wouldn't rule anyone out.

If the money is right, Eto'o will come.

Doesn't this sound a lot like last year? Barca begin their world tours with Eto'o on the market and then realize how badly they need him. Wouldn't be surprised to see him stay.
Posted Thursday July 02, 2009, About: How Beckham irked Donovan
So what does Arena do now? Bench Goldenballs? Might be the best for everyone.

We know he's going back to Milan...why not let him go early?
Posted Monday June 29, 2009, About: Barca admits monster Eto'o offer
Anyone care to tell me who the real Sergio Ramos is? He was solid for Spain in Euro 2008, but the way he was torched by Dempsey will be a highlight that is played over and over for years to come.

And as a club player, he has been solid at times, but there have also been some absolute howlers. He was torched by Ronaldinho in 2005 and, while he did score in the 6-2 match, he seemed to be woefully out of position for a good part of the game. Henry just ran around him making him look silly.

I know he can be solid, but at times, he is just clueless.
Posted Monday June 29, 2009, About: Henry discusses MLS move
He is divorced, so no, England isn't all that appealing.

I expect he'll be coming here in 2011-2012 and playing for NY...Toronto and Vancouver probably are not options.

Having seen how he has worked with Messi, Bojan, Pedrito and the other up and comers at Barca, I expect this to work out well for NY. Over the last few years in Barcelona, he has been the kind of guy to put team ahead of individual goals.
Posted Wednesday June 24, 2009, About: Bradley predicts U.S. upset
Not sure I'd call that a prediction.
Posted Wednesday June 24, 2009, About: Stoke next in line for Owen?
Anyone know what Owen's salary was at Newcastle? Any idea what range he is asking for today?
Posted Thursday June 18, 2009, About: Chelsea, United, Barca bidding on Ribery
Has Chelsea even named a Manager yet?
Posted Tuesday June 16, 2009, About: Barca moving on Robinho?
Never going to happen...where would he fit? Who would he replace?

Barca's success was due in large part to excellent chemistry. Does anyone think that Robinho would improve the current situation? No chance. Too many other options.

Sell Eto'o to Siddy and sign Villa.
Posted Tuesday June 16, 2009, About: Donovan rips US-Italy red card
Did anyone really think the US would win to begin with? Honestly, red card aside, it wasn't much of a surprise. US needs to develop clinical, lethal finishers. They just don't have that and it showed yesterday. If you don't finish, you don't win.
Posted Wednesday June 10, 2009, About: Mexico's Giovani back to Spain on loan?
Good move...back to Barcelona. First year in the new Espanyol stadium. It would be a great home.

And with only 5 goals from Luis Garcia and 6 from Tamudo, Espanyol need someone who can find the net. If Gio and De la Pena can develop some chemistry, this could work well for everyone.
