I'd love to know why Fox isn't showing the best UCL game on Tuesday (Arsenal-Dortmund) live and why they're relegating the best UCL game on Wednesday (Real-Juve) to Fox Sports 2, which isn't available everywhere in HD.

 

I can choose between Ajax @ Celtic (on a Dutch channel) and Barça @ Milan (on a French channel :roll: )

Sounds like Jermaine Jones is angling for an MLS move.

 

I know most people won't be psyched, but I'd love to see him in MLS. His style (or lack of) will fit in perfectly. He'd be an awesome enforcer for Portland or LA.

Gooch signed by QPR.

Gooch signed by QPR.

 

I think this is a great spot for him, a Championship League team that will challenge for the league and promotion and a chance for him to establish himself with the team during the process.

 

Shea looking for a loan move, hopefully to somewhere in Holland.

The Mexico squad for Finland friendly is essentially Club America's starting 11. Probably smart at this point. Club America >> New Zealand. Chemistry is already there.

 

Its fitting that they just crashed out of the CCL without scoring against Alajuelense and losing 1-0 at Azteca.

4 goals and counting today for the great Zlatan.

That was embarassing (but as a Bruges fan, I won't lose any sleep over it :wink: )

Aron with another goal this one in Europa League play. 1-1 right now, 20 minutes left.

[wolf stansson]

We'll see if someone like Aron Johansson or Julian Green join up and can provide depth.

Part two of my self quote.

Green has accepted an invite to the Scotland and Austria friendlies next month. Because of his caps with Germany's youth teams, he would have to file a one-time switch and would be permanently tied to the US regardless of it being a friendly.

[expletive] Awesome!!!

Everything's coming up Klinsi!

In 2001, a certain 19 year old, dynamic, fast winger/fwd was tearing it up and scoring goals for Leverkusen's second team. He was fairly unknown before Arena called him in for the World Cup. Hopefully this works out just as well.

Strootman dinged his ankle. The General probably going to start for Roma.

Bradley didn't start, but scored the winner for Roma today.

[Guest]

Bradley with the only goal for Roma today, after his team had gone down to 10 men.

[wolf stansson]

Bradley scores the winner to keep Roma flying, our keepers put on a clinic vs each other and Jozy plays well (Sky Man of the Match) and gets an crucial assist for the winner in the biggest Sunderland game of the year. Good weekend. Edited October 27, 2013 by wolf stansson

Lol, Mourinho ran to the seats and jumps in the mosh pit to celebrate with the fans after the deciding goal from Torres.

[shnsajax]

Mikey w the winner as a sub in the 82nd minute.

[Guest]

wait, Bradley scored?

I'm already excited to see how Joe Hart blows a game for England in the World Cup next summer. It's going to be great.

That goal was on Nastasic, not Hart.

Aguero's goal was a gem.

Hart had no business coming out on that ball. Nastasic had three yards on Torres and if Hart just sits back, it's an easy header back to the goalie. The only reason to come out that far is if your defender isn't getting to the ball first, which was never going to be the case.
